Polar Plunge + 1,000-Year-Old Cocktails Below The Antarctic Circle

Let Erin and Phil book this same experience for you, personally! We started ABC Trips to offer our bespoke itineraries to those seeking authentic culture, epic landscapes, and uncompromising luxury. 👉🏼 https://abctrips.com We’re now more than a week into the bucket list Antarctic group expedition that we organized for viewers of our channels and the adventure just keeps getting cooler. Things started off with our ship’s onboard luxury, our crossing of The Drake Passage, and our first glimpses and steps onto the stunning landscapes of the great white continent. And after multiple zodiac landings and countless wildlife encounters, we’re adding avalanches and iceberg graveyards, plunging our warm bodies into the frozen waters, and pulling up glacial ice for our thousand-year-old cocktails.

We think it’s a better way to learn and we’ve worked hard to fund our little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people. In 2025, we started ABC Trips to help travelers experience the world the way we do—deeply, intentionally, and without the stress of figuring everything out alone. After years of full-time travel, expedition cruising, luxury hotels, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences with our family, we realized something: the hardest part of epic travel isn’t the destination—it’s the decisions. Which ship actually gets you more time on the ice? Which safari lodge delivers real wildlife encounters? Which “bucket list” experiences are worth the money… and which are just hype? ABC Trips exists to cut through the noise. We plan and host thoughtfully curated journeys built around firsthand experience, honest recommendations, and moments that actually move the needle—whether that’s setting foot on Antarctica, tracking wildlife in Africa, or discovering cultures in a way that feels human, not herded.
