South Pole 20K Ski Expedition
Union Glacier, Antarctica
It's not exactly a quick trip, but we guarantee this South Pole 20K Ski Expedition is far more rewarding than simply hopping off a plane and declaring "I'm here". Offered by the experienced guides at Polar Expeditions, this nine-day journey sees you boarding a plane in Punta Arenas, Chile for a flight to the bottom of the world — or at least close to it, as you'll be skiing the last 20 km, and sleeping in a tent (with a very warm sleeping bag). When you consider that a full trek there takes nearly two months there and back, it's like getting all the excitement (and bragging rights) with none of the hassle.
