Ticket to Antarctica
Thousands of people took part in ‘Ticket to Antarctica’ – a unique opportunity to send their name to Antarctica and follow the journey by ship or plane down to the frozen continent.
You can still experience the majesty of Antarctica through the eyes of the Antarcticans – the people who live and work in the last true wilderness on Earth.
It’s not too late to read the travel journal and immerse yourself in the world of penguins, whales and glaciers. You’ll meet our scientists and engineers; hear about the research they do and why it matters to every living thing on the planet.
Pick between two adventures
In 2024 Ticket to Antarctica went aboard the RRS Sir David Attenborough. Nearly 70,000 people signed up as schools, families and individuals.
In 2025 our journey was by air from Canada to Antarctica in one of our Twin Otter aircraft.
