Adventure Travel in Antarctica

Yes its the coldest continent on earth and no humans live there yet it doesn't limit tourism in Antarctica.
Tourism in Antarctica started with sea tourism in the 1960s. Air overflights of Antarctica started in the 1970s with sightseeing flights by airliners from Australia and New Zealand, and were resumed in the 1990s. Private yacht trips started in the late 1960s. In the 2009 to 2010 tourist season, over 37,000 people visited Antarctica.
As continent ice is melting at the record pace, people are travelling there more than ever. If you want to have an adventurous journey for lifetime, make it to Antarctica.
