Antarctica is more than 5 million square miles, 98% of which is covered with an ice sheet.

There is no commercial access to Antarctica, except for tour boats which frequent parts of Antarctica's beaches, especially in the Antarctic Peninsula.

On a privately funded expedition, you can go anywhere in Antarctica once you receive the appropriate permits. Be aware that you are responsible for not only all expenses, but for all safety precautions, rescue operations and the health of all your expedition members.
