Roald Amundsen and Robert Falcon Scott both explored Antarctica at the same time in 1911. Amundsen was aware of Scott's objective, but Scott was not aware that Amundsen was right behind him. Roald Amundsen got there first on 14th of December, 1911. Amundsen reported that he saw no sign of Scott. Scott reached the South Pole on 17th of January, 1912, acknowledging in his diary that Amundsen had got there a month earlier. The last members of the Scott expedition was found dead by a relief party two years later in 1913.
The first men to reach the South Pole was the Norvegien explorer ROALD ENGELBREGT.
The North Pole lies in the Arctic, the South Pole is in the Antarctic. So it'd be impossible to reach North Pole in Antarctic, since it isn't there.
Amundsen and his team were first to sail between Greenland and Alaska by way of the Northwest Passage. Years later, he also lead the team to be the first humans to set foot at the South Pole.
A Norwegian team first reached the South Pole during December 1911.

The first man to reach the South Pole was Roald Amundsen, who along with his team, Olav Bjaaland, Helmer Hanssen, Sverre Hassel and Oscar Wisting reached the South Pole on December 14th 1911, some 35 days before Robert Scott's ill fated team.
