Antarctica | White Desert: Meet The Guides

About this episode

Today we're heading down to the white continent of Antarctica.

This vast land holds an extremely special place in my heart and this was my second trip to the continent. This time I visited by flying over from South Africa and staying at one of White Desert's beautiful camps called Echo Camp. 

I took along my recording equipment and am so glad I did because I think you'll find the stories that follow quite inspirational. While my day to day was focused on mountaineering activities, what was most special about the trip was meeting the team and learning about the incredible amount of logistics that go into the camp and transporting scientists and dignitaries to and from Antarctica. 

There's something about being secluded with humans from around the world, in place that waves no flag. My guests today - Neil, Stuart, James, Sean, and Dumi share how months on end in Antarctica have inspired and changed them and tell stories of some incredible things they've experienced 

I hope you enjoy this special episode of Luxury Travel Insider.
