Cape Town to Antarctica – A One-Day Journey with Travel Republic Africa

Travel Republic Africa is proud to offer one of the world’s most exclusive and extraordinary travel experiences: a same-day return expedition from Cape Town to Antarctica in partnership with White Desert, the pioneering team based on the White Continent.

A Day Few Will Ever Know

From the southern tip of Africa to the heart of Antarctica and back—all in a single day. This remarkable journey begins in Cape Town, where guests board a privately chartered jet and fly over 2,500 miles across the Southern Ocean. After approximately five and a half hours in the air, you’ll touch down on Antarctica’s icy surface at the spectacular Wolf’s Fang Runway, surrounded by towering mountain peaks and glistening blue ice.

Set Foot on the Seventh Continent

Upon landing, guests are welcomed by White Desert’s expert polar guides and taken on a guided exploration of this pristine, otherworldly landscape. Over the course of three hours on the ice, you’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Hike across untouched glacial terrain
  • Explore crystal ice caves and dramatic ice formations
  • Enjoy drinks and snacks in the “snow lounge”
  • Take in panoramic views of nunataks and rugged Antarctic scenery

Every element is carefully curated for comfort, safety, and maximum immersion—offering a powerful and deeply personal connection to one of Earth’s last untouched frontiers.
