On a recent webinar with my Virtuoso partners, Arctic Kingdom, they gave a terrific little overview of the major differences between the Arctic and Antarctica (other than being at opposite poles, of course.)
This is kinda a nifty chart to give a quick snapshot.
| Arctic | Antarctica |
| Indigenous people and culture | Virtually uninhabited |
| Large land mammals + polar bears | Large penguin colonies |
| 1000 visitors a year | >40,000 visitors a year |
| Aurora Borealis | Icescapes |
| Accessible by land/air/sea | Accessible by air/ sea |
| Season: Feb-Nov | Season: Nov-Mar |
Let me know if you’d like to visit either the Arctic or Antarctica. I work with my partners Arctic Kingdom to ensure we have the best trip booked for you.
