With that in mind, in 2006 Robyn and Patrick Woodhead created White Desert, billing it as Antarctica's only "luxury camp" and outfitting it with comfortable furnishings and top-notch dining. White Desert offers adventurous travelers the chance to participate in two different trips to other parts of Antarctica - one to Atka Bay and the other to the Geographic South Pole.
The tours cost a whopping €64,000 ($72,000) per person, which includes housing, flights, and food, and take place only in November and December, the warmest time of the year in Antarctica. According to USA Today, the average high temperature is -36 degrees Fahrenheit in November and -16 in December. The average low is -40 degrees Fahrenheit in November and -20 in December.
White Desert recently underwent a renovation in honor of its 10th anniversary. The team shared photos of the camp's new look so we can see what it's really like to visit Antarctica's interior in style.
