Whichaway Camp is a luxury camp situated deep in the interior of Antarctica. Despite it being one of the most remote camps on the planet, it features innovative design, cutting-edge technology and contemporary comforts.
The camp provides six state-of-the-art dome-shaped pods designed for maximum privacy, which feature a stylish combination of old world African safari décor and modern comforts; think double beds, a writing desk, wash area, and toilet. For guests travelling separately, the room can be partitioned to allow more privacy.
There’s a cosy dining room serving hearty fare, and a library and communications area. All are suitably snuggly with thick pile rugs, low slung sofas and armchairs with hip upholstery.
Activities here range from gentle treks and exploring ice caves to ice climbing and kite skiing. Back at the camp, sip a glass of champagne from the comfort of your pod as you admire the views.
