How did you get around antarctica?
you walk eat walk eat walk eat walk eat and eventually u will make it around Antarctica The best way to travel around Antarctica, is to be a scientist aboard a research ship. There are expensive tourist agencies that would take you to visit Antarctica in a cruise, but they do not make the full tour around the Antarctic coast. And only in the Summer season these sea cruises visit Antarctica (during the north hemisphere Winter). The Southern Ocean is pretty dangerous, even in Antarctic Summer, specially near Cape Horn and the South Georgia island, where the great antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton is burried.

Shackleton and all men sailed to Elephant Island~an uninhabited island out of the way of other islands then shackleton decided to take his five best men and try to sail to the whaling station on South Georgia Island about 500 miles away on the James Caird. but landed on the wrong side and traveled on land to the other side and made it in less than 3 days Shackleton tried to rescue the men 3 times until finally on a tub boat he rescued and 21 men ( +5 and Shackleton).
