Antarctic polar travel guide Antarctic travel guide

Analysis of main tourist routes in four Antarctic islands:

First, summarize the existing routes of Antarctic tourism products in the market:

Antarctic peninsula

The most popular Antarctic travel route. There are landscapes, abundant wild animals and Antarctic scientific research stations in various countries. Everything you know about Antarctica may come from here.

Enter the Antarctic circle

Box: The route to the Antarctic Circle is basically along the route of the Antarctic Peninsula, but it will go deeper until 6634 south latitude. This symbolic meaning is very important. Most people say they went to the South Pole, but in fact, they didn't. I don't go to the Antarctic circle, so it's worth going.

On the contrary: the scenery is not much different, just geographical significance and time consuming.

Falkland Islands, South Georgia Islands, Antarctic Peninsula-Antarctic Island Tour

Go to these two islands to see animals, including animals with mountains, valleys and beaches, emperor penguins, albatrosses and elephant seals. T imagine being among so many animals without seeing them with my own eyes.

The Falkland Islands and South Georgia Islands usually travel with the Antarctic Peninsula, commonly known as the three Antarctic islands.

Rosaj

The route from New Zealand and Australia is definitely a good route to avoid the world. Find the true meaning of life in icebergs, ice shelves, emperor penguins and endless loneliness. Ross Sea is a big bay in the South Pacific Ocean, which goes deep into Antarctica. It is the southernmost ocean on earth that can only be reached by boat.

3. Antarctic travel guide

If you have a dream of traveling around the world, then the South Pole must be an indispensable place in your dream destination. When we reach the South Pole, we will reach the end of the world. How can I not do this in my life? Title example

Antarctica is the only continent in the world where no human beings live and settle down. 98% of the Antarctic continent is covered with ice and snow all the year round, with an average annual temperature of MINUS 35 degrees Celsius. This is the coldest, stormiest and windiest place in the world. 19 1 1 65438 In February, the Norwegian Amundsen expedition reached the South Pole for the first time. Yangtoulai

1959 65438+February, 12 countries signed the Antarctic treaty, which came into force on 196 1 year. At present, countries have established more than 60 observation stations and 100 research bases in Antarctica. Laiyang headline

China Chinese Antarctic expedition consists of Great Wall Station, Zhongshan Station, Kunlun Station and taishan station. Practical strategy before going to Antarctica Question 1: Do you need a visa to go to Antarctica? Laiyang headline

No, because Antarctica does not belong to any country. However, you still need a visa from a certain country. The most popular route to Antarctica is a cruise ship from a country near Antarctica. Laiyang headline

At present, most tourists choose to apply for visas from Argentina, a South American country, and take a cruise to the South Pole from ushuaia, the southernmost tip of Argentina, while some tourists take a cruise from Chile. The advantage is that as long as you have an American visa, you can get a visa-free Chile. Title example

In addition to cruise ships, tourists who can speak Mandarin (dialect) can also travel to Antarctica by plane and ship, which is relatively expensive. (Route map from ushuaia, Argentina) (Route map from Chile, there are two ways to cross the Drake Strait: cruise and plane) Question 2: How much does it cost to go to Antarctica? Tiaoyangtou

First of all, you should choose a cruise ship and book a ticket to Antarctica in advance. This ticket covers most of your round trip, accommodation and activities from South America to Antarctica. How much is this ticket? Laiyang headline

At present, the price of each cruise company is basically 600,000-200,000 RMB/person, and the price varies according to the route and room type. The Antarctic travel time is basically 10-25 days. For friends with short holidays, the shortest trip of 10 day can be close to the South Pole and the cost is relatively low. Question 3: When is the best time to go to the South Pole? Title example

There are no four seasons in Antarctica, but only two seasons, namely warm season (165438+1October-March) and cold season (April-65438+1October). Because the Antarctic continent is located on the axis of the Antarctic circle closest to the earth, extreme day and night phenomena will occur. Laiyang headline

In the warm season, it's almost daytime now, which is more suitable for traveling. Title example

The products of cruise companies are also between 1 1 and March of the following year. As tickets are limited, you should book tickets as soon as possible. Tiaoyangtou

General tourist routes to Antarctica:

Starting from home-Buenos Aires (Argentina)-boarding in ushuaia (Argentina)-Antarctic Circle;

The best time for a regular trip to Antarctica is mostly from 165438+ 10 to 65438+February, just entering summer. Due to the influence of climate and other factors, there is still a lot of ice on the sea near the Antarctic circle during this period, which makes it difficult for ships to sail. It takes a long time to reach the Antarctic circle, which will reduce the time for landing and sightseeing in the Antarctic.

5. Antarctic and Arctic Travel Guide

People think the South Pole is more interesting. First of all, the Arctic is basically an ocean. Even if I go, I will go to northern Finland or Canada and Denmark Greenland. The relative popularity is not as high as that of Antarctica, and polar bears can be seen occasionally. The quantity is relatively small. Antarctica is different. The Antarctic continent is very big. You can experience the feeling of crossing the westerlies in three days by boat from ushuaia in South America. There are many scientific research stations in Antarctica, which are also the highlights of travel. But it also depends on personal preference. As far as the cost is concerned, it is a little more expensive in China. S Antarctic, starting from 6.5438+10,000 yuan, if you are in the North Pole, you can basically have a good time.

7. One-day tour strategy of Antarctic polar tourism

I'm Mickey. I'd be happy to answer your questions.

Antarctica belongs to no country. It is the last pure land in the world. Of course you don't need a visa. But to go to the South Pole, you need to board the ship at the boarding point of South American countries, which requires a visa! In fact, in addition to Chile and other countries, ushuaia in Argentina is a famous boarding point to the South Pole! Argentina is really beautiful and worth seeing! Ushuaia, the end of the world, can really make you remember it for a lifetime! Therefore, Bian Xiao really strongly suggests that you can board the ship from ushuaia (the world shipping companies basically sail to the South Pole from here).

There are two kinds of visas in Argentina, one is an electronic visa and the other is a consulate visa! The difference is: 1. Electronic signature needs beautiful signature, simplified materials and online application! But they are all single in and single out, which will take you a long time and drag you for a month! 2. There are many materials to be prepared for veneer labels! A lot of notarized materials! I want both Spanish and English! The materials seem to take two weeks, but the interview is fast! Basically, it came out within one week after submitting the materials! It takes about 3.4 times to run the consulate, and the visa 10 year.

Or Argentina and the United States must punch in their own local visas, so we have to apply about two months in advance to travel. We must allow some time to get the label and submit it to the Argentine Immigration Center. Many times you will not be seen, and then the immigration center will usually send the documents, and the information will be easily rejected. I still have a lot of snacks, which I can't give out at all. Therefore, many times, we can only make other plans, and we can only change the plane ticket into a loss. Of course, South Americans are more casual. Of course, we can also choose to take a chance. If you are really lucky and have no difficulty, you might as well try to sign it, but the process is quite exciting. And of course, it should be said that there will be many countries in South America that need American visas, so that we can get rid of them. After breastfeeding in Argentina and Antarctica, you will be exempted from the visa. Of course, American visas are very important in these countries.

2. How to get to the South Pole? One is by boat in ushuaia like me, and the other is by plane. Yes, you can also fly to the South Pole, but it's too expensive! Flying can avoid the devil's westerlies and the Drake Strait (crossing the Drake Strait really threw up a dog), but on second thought, what's the point of not going to the South Pole safely? It's too easy to go by plane! Are you sure you didn't? You don't want to experience the infamous devil's westerlies. Ha ha.

3. The choice of an adventure company The choice of an adventure company is actually to choose a boat! There are many countries, and I chose Quark America without hesitation after my research! It can be said that it is one or two top polar exploration companies in the world! Very professional. Well, to be honest, these

Quarks are really, really professional! It can be said that the service is the best among the professional scientific research teams in the world, and the ship's anti-ice ability is also excellent ~ In fact, the predecessors of these ships are all scientific research ships. Prepare to brush every day in the early stage, which is called surge of emotion! Yes, Sister Hua. Going to the South Pole is a walking quark! Yes, pay attention to the number of people when choosing a boat! Because the Antarctic Convention stipulates that no more than 100 people will land in the Antarctic each time, it is recommended to choose a ship with less than 200 people. In this way, someone logs in, someone cruises, and anyone can play without delay! Otherwise, just like ships with 3.4 and 4.5 hundred people, they will cruise ashore in turn every day. Others are out, so you can only stay on the boat. You came to the South Pole and stayed on the boat?

There are two ways to buy tickets to the South Pole. One is that the domestic mainstream travel app will launch the Antarctic route, and the disadvantage is that Chinese people charter ships! I don't-I don't like international shipping schedules very much. Official ships facing all over the world can make many friends with nuts. Cultural integration is more interesting! The most convenient way to buy international ships is in official website. Clearly marked, location and price at a glance!

But I didn't. I found quark agents in several countries, compared the prices and found that Australia was cheaper. In fact, it's only 500 dollars cheaper! But 500 yuan is also money! After careful calculation, I have to praise my Australian brother here. Talk to him about everything, and he is not tired. The third way is to wait for the boat ticket. This person who is more suitable for free time, after arriving in ushuaia in advance, waits for the last minute ticket every day! Which ship will leave at once, but there are still seats available, so I'll sell them to you cheaply! However, this method is risky. I met a man who bought a last-minute ticket on the boat. Anyway, at first glance, it is a cosmopolitan home.

5. Antarctic route There are only three main routes in Antarctica. A is the Antarctic Peninsula, with a total voyage of 10 days. B is the route through the Antarctic circle, full of ritual. It takes about 15 days to really enter the Antarctic continent, and it takes about 7.8 days to land and cruise. S interesting! C Antarctic three islands, almost more than 20 days, and there are many animals to see for a long time, which is more suitable for professional photographers.

6. Speaking of insurance, it's a bitter tear! Speaking of the insurance we bought in Antarctica, it's really hard, because I think it's very difficult for it to buy insurance in Antarctica. I can call several insurance companies. However, when many insurance companies hear that they live in Antarctica, they just shake their heads and dare not answer, because because the risk in Antarctica is high, they can ask more questions at this time. The insurance company will tell you something in advance, such as polar rescue or body transport. People who look at it this way are afraid. Listen, I almost caught a cold.

8. The strategic route of Antarctic polar tourism

Antarctica has only a few scientific researchers and whaling teams from other continents. Antarctica is the only known polar region with land in the world. The Arctic region is covered by floating oceans, and the Arctic Ocean (accounting for 60% of the total area) is surrounded by permafrost regions in Asia, Europe and northern North America. The total area is 2 1 10,000 square kilometers, accounting for about 1/25 of the total area of the earth. The land area in the Arctic Circle is about 800 square kilometers. The land part belongs to Russia, the United States, Canada, Denmark, Norway, Iceland, Sweden and Finland. The main sea areas are Greenland Sea, Norwegian Sea, Barents Sea and White Sea. The famous North Pole magnetic field is located at west longitude 10254 and north latitude 78 12. The area north of the Arctic Circle is geographically surrounded by Asia, Europe and North America, and is almost semi-enclosed.
