Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 тра 2024
- Join me on a full tour (in 4K) of Echo, the world's most remote luxury camp in Antarctica. Inspired by astronauts, Echo sits on a massive glacier in quiet solitude encircled by ice-covered rock formations. The futuristic camp is managed by White Desert and can only be reached by private flight.
The video includes the flight to Echo, a full tour of Echo, fine dining in Antarctica, as well as the activities around Echo (e.g. hiking, abseiling, biking, ice climbing and exploring a crevasse). Keep watching tell the end for a fun party in a stunning ice bar!

I have been twice. Last time was 3+ weeks in a tent. Skied last degree to South Pole and climbed Mt. Vinson and Mt. Shinn. Best trip ever!
You captured some of the desolate beauty of Antartica. I love that you didn't play any background music to convey the remoteness of this continent.
But there is music?
@@takasmaka820not during the excursions or exploration
@@takasmaka820 The music is always on point. The right time in video
I wish the music was credited, so I could find it and buy it. This is the kind of atmospheric music I like, without electronic percussion.
It's all bullshit fake as in CGI. Antarctica is off limits to travel to, since 1958. Yes they are hiding things.
Such a gorgeous, beautiful place and anyone that has gotten to go is beyond blessed.
Incredible. Feels like a space colony on an ice planet.
yâ durus aytasız 🔥
this will help us colonize mars
I did two months of field work in Antarctica, at about 85 S latitude. It was pretty amazing. And intensely cold. absolutely extraordinary.
Well, I am going to say something unpopular here.. I wish tourists would stay away from Antarctica. It's one of the last pristine places on Earth. Humans don't need to come in and trash it up.
100% 🎉
On the contrary, you are correct. Humans do need to stay far away.
I agree,but I'd sell my granny to go there!
Why go there ? For what? If one is not a scientist, just for vanity?
Gross
Words can't describe. EPIC is just one. This is a place I will never be able to visit but you have taken us there vicariously through this video. A HUGE - Thank You Very Much! A beautiful and surreal landscape to appreciate. I'm glad you were able to experience it and share it all with us. LIKE........ 👍!!
Never say never
Ai...
The silence is so deep for a while I had to make sure my headphones were still working. What a beautiful, surreal experience and I hope it's one I get to take in this lifetime! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful video!
This is the Namibia journey only frozen! These kinds of journeys are completely immersive, leading you from one experience to another with both historical, geological, and sensory. Bravo!
Debra Butler As I watched the video I too thought of what a dream trip it would be to visit Namibia and then do a day trip to Antarctica! (Far too old to do the full Antarctica experience). It would be like visiting our planet well before dinosaurs and humans showed up 🦖🦕🚶
looking at this landscape I get the feeling: This is the perfect place for a Meditation Retreat. it vibrates a serenity and an endless expansion .... there hasn't been any humans living there, there are no traces of a chattering mind polluting the end bliss of being here and now.
It’s almost like visiting another planet, amazing!
Have you ever been to another planet? 😂😂😂

That's what they said. Why you copying them dude huh
Salam dari Malaysia 🇲🇾
@@jokesonyou1373😂😂😂
This trip has conclusively PROVEN that you are an expert in filming, editing and of course, picking your destination(s)! From the lack of music (brilliant choice) almost throughout to help convey the severety of the quietness to the seemingly ordinary activities that truly show the intrinsic beauty of Antarctica and then to the accomodations and gourmet cuisine, all I can say is "SIGN ME UP!" SUBLIME!!!
Thank you ☺️
I agree with you bro❤❤😊😊
100 % correct
Ai....
Wow! What an incredible place, and thanks for taking us along. Antarctica is on my bucket list of places to experience.
Yep. I was thinking I'm more envious of the crew than the passengers, they get to do it more often!
YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING...IT SUCKED!!...GET A LIFE....SMH...🤠
Unfortunately, only the RICH can enjoy it. This place costs $14500 USD per day!
@@-WhizzBang- I was wondering about that. I guessed around $10K a day
That art piece at 19:50 is the most mind-blowing piece of art I have ever seen
Ikr?! I'd love to have my own copy of that sculpture!
I detest that piece of artwork. If we're in a huge, open space, I would probably love it.
@@cynthiaandrews9902 Ok, so by definition you do not detest the artwork. Just the space in which it’s being displayed in.
A obra de arte me dá mal estar ,tontura vomito. As acomodações são informais como um escritório nada aconchegante.
You can also see that mind blowing piece of art at LA. ART show. BTW it's not that great.
All I can think about is Captain Scott and Shackleton.
And the challenges they endured.
They could have never imagine, this kind of accommodations!
Welcome to the 21st. Century!
Out of the world. It's closest to leaving the earth while being on it. Total ASMR. Well made.
"WOW" it is soo amazing , Thanks for this wonderful video
I was there in 2011. Travelled with National Geographic (Linblad Expeditions). Flying straight to Antarctica takes the fun out of it. We got to experience the Drakes Passage. Holy Hell. It was rough.
You asked your viewers a few years back to provide some travel ideas. I said "Antarctica"...I was thinking about the cruiseships that go there...but, you hit it out of the park on this Antarctica Luxury trip. WOW...What an amazing trip. Thank you for sharing!!
By far, this was the most amazing trip I have watched on your channel! And this includes some other great experiences you shared here 🔥✨
WOW WOW WOW …. this is off the scale ? You bring so many amazing images from around the world into our minds ….. top draw !
it would be such a surreal experience to stay here, when you look out it would be like being among the clouds and I can only imagine the silence and how peaceful it would be
9:46 9:48
I don't know why my eyes are watering. Is it because the place is beautiful, a magical place or maybe because I can't afford the cost😭🤣
Thanks so much for taking us all along with you on your amazing adventure...all I can say is, *WOW!!!!!* 💗💗💗
IMHO this is, with Namibia's lodges, the best destinations have you visit ever. Congratulations and thanks for share this amazing, stunning and gorgeous video.
yes reminded me also of the Namib. They tell at the desert lodges there you are on your own with deadly critters at the property.
I totally agree with you.
So nice to see Part of the Antarctica Trip. Such fun! 👏🏽
Just when you think you showed us the most exclusive places in the world... you come up with a remote luxurious camp in Antartica. Just wow! 😍
Ai....
Wow what a video thank you it’s a dream of mine to go there since I was little but won’t ever happen for someone like me but we can dream ❤
Such an amazing beauty exist in the world 😍.. thank you for letting us see this part of the world through you.
Phenomenal is an understatement. Amazingly unique! Many kudos for sharing your experiences with us every Saturday. A gift that just keeps giving. ❤️
Genial 👌👍😃👌
Spectacular, surreal, and stunning! You don’t disappoint on giving your viewers the feel of being right where you are at…. That sculpture was beautiful, everything about this place is beautiful, makes me a little teary eyed watching. Thank you so much. 🥲
Wow! I still love Soneva better and am sticking to that dream luxury vacation of my lifetime... but .... to see Antarctica like this is truly spectacular!
What a journey,,full adventure..thnks frm India(Assam)
Awesome!!!
I want to see stars, our via lactea Galaxy and "northem" lights in this place. Wonderful!!!
I love this kind of places. Loved the one you did in Namibia and this is right up there.
Un lugar increible lleno de paz donde se observan unos paisajes únicos. 🏔️
I am so happy for you that you got to enjoy this rare and unique privilege! I'm also very grateful that you shared it with us. ❤❤
Good morning my friend.
What a spectacular review, I am lost for words. As you were walking over the ice, the sound of the crushing ice was deafening. Such a beautiful natural untouched place. You portraied everything in such detail, thank you.
I'm looking forward to next Saturday morning already.
Kind regards
DS
Incredible! There aren’t any words for this beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing this.
Its not often I'm lost for words, but i am watching this!..i could cry its so beautiful.
Incredible experience🎉
Wow! What a unique experience! 💗
This is an immensely impressive sight. Its beauty is unparalleled and one-of-a-kind, making it incredibly alluring. It's a destination that simply must be experienced firsthand. Thank you for inspiring us to dream beyond our imaginations.
Amazing video. Thank you!
Unbef***inglieveable! Spiritual center of the planet without doubt... 😇
Antartica is my absolute dream destination. Hopefully I get the chance to visit it soon!
I believe you have reached the pinnacle of travel❤. You truly left humanity behind
Along with the place, everything was very charming, very beautiful, beautiful views, an unforgettable beautiful dream
This most be a bucket list experience for someone living in a warmer climate.
Most people living in a colder climate wants to escape that when going on vacation.
Absolutely outstanding!!!! I am crying ... what an excellent video, dear LTE!!! So happy and excited for yoy!! Such stark beauty! Overwhelming! The snow and ice of the glacier lit from within! With the ledges appearing as if an ocean was caught mid-storm and flash frozen .... sooooo amazing!! And the ice crystals in the crevasse!! One's soul cant help but soar!!! You had to have felt like you were on 7th heaven! Yes? The colors of the surrounding landscape were incredible!! This is your best work yet!!! This is most definitely food for dreams!!! God bless, dear LTE!!❤
Wow! This was definitely different from all your other travels!
The accommodations are quite different from anything else you have shown us!
We get this feeling of being far away from everything else, thank you!
WOW!!!❤
Forever a beautiful sight I just can’t see in the expansive view where we will ever run out of water and blue skies !
This is a place everyone needs to see in person. This is one of the last great wildernesses.
Good idea. Fly 7 billion people to a remote location without a shopping mall or a McDonalds.
p.s. remember to bring toilet paper and enough aviation fuel to get home, unless you're already homeless.
Amazing video.
The beauty of Antarctica is outstanding, captured well in this video.
That panoramic shot starting 2:11 can make one almost spiritual, it felt other-worldly.
I am so happy for you that you could experience this! Thank you so much for sharing this video with us so that we could enjoy this as much as possible as well 😊
This video is a pure Gem 💎. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece 💜 😊
Didnt know there’s such a trip. Amazing trip and good video 👍👍
So breathtaking I’ve watched it twice.
Wow! Stunning video. Loved the sound of the crushing ice while you were walking ❄️💙
An indescribable experience accompanied by the sound of silence 😍Thank you so much always. I love your videos 🙏❤️
Your channel just went to a whole new level with these Antarctica videos. Amazing. Thanks!
Wonderful video, thank you. You can almost feel eternity. It’s so interesting how your travels have evolved into finding the most untouched places on earth. 🙏🏻
Probably the best view !!! It is a great start 💪 I be waiting here
26.4.2023.Really first class,fantastic and wonderful.💯💋💜.Thanks and god bless you with good health.
What an awesome experience this would be! The video itself was spectacular.
Superbe vidéo ! Bravo et merci pour le spectacle. Hâte de voir la suite !! 👍
It's a phenomenal view, and truly adventurous journey.
Wonderful😮
This video is so different point of view of Antarctica. You captured such beauty and marvelous scenes from a place with such emptiness and only three colors in it - white, gray, and blue (the snow, the rocks, and the sky). Somehow in your video, you managed to fill this emptiness with life even in the silence. Remarkable!
I've watched another video on UA-cam about traveling to Antarctica and hiking most higher top there. There was a huge storm and all looked like so a dangerous adventure. It was too much raw experience for me and I'd never prefer to go there because I thought that was all that Antarctica has to offer.
But after your experience of Antarctica from your very different perspective than the first I mentioned, in a much more comfortable and accommodated way of staying, and still with interesting adventures activities, Antarctica is a lot more attractive destination.
Thank you that you share your wonderful experiences from our amazing world with all of us! Your channel is one of a kind and is one of the best in the travel area on UA-cam, especially in luxury travel is the best.
After watching Extrapolations on Apple TV+. This video is quite unfortunate and sad to know there’s such thing in Antártica already. Shame on the ones who visit this place
Everybody has a choice. This choice is expressed in what we choose to believe. Everything is the point of view even our experience as individuals and as collective human beings. I know that there are global matters and topics that we have to pay attention to them. I'm absolutely about that we have to care for our home Planet Earth. We have to love, appreciate, and respect our home Planet Earth.
@Francisco C I respect your point of view and understand that you are concerned about the well-being of the planet and wish for the well-being of the planet and its inhabitants. That's great! 🙂
But I don't think that some anti-utopic TV series is the most accurate example of the future of the planet. Mostly because is founded on the perspective of fear and belief in degradation. Especially because is grounded on the point of view of scared people who are not able to see the good things that happening all around the world and the positive evolution. And positive evolution is in the essence of this world from the very beginning. I believe that when we use the goods of our Earth with love, appreciation, and respect everything is all right with the planet, our future like human beings and all creatures in this world.
I've never been there in Antarctica. I'm not quite sure that ever will go because the cold weather is not my thing. But I'm curious and I love penguins. I'm grateful that there is this comfortable option with this camp and appreciate what these people offer to not-so-experienced adventure travelers. I'm happy that people there expressed that they respect the pristine of the region and exploit the place with great care and respect.🙂
Ai.....
What an unimaginable places you introduce us to......absolutely stunning ✌️
Stunning....absolutely stunning. As for the "deafening spiritual silence", I recall that sensation in Wadi Rum in Jordan....another stunning place.
I imagine vacations to the moon would look something like this.
A DIFFERENT UNIQUE EXPERIENCE 👌 YOUR OWN PRIVATE SPACESHIP NO ICE NEEDED FOR YOUR BEVERAGE 😊 SPECTACULAR VIEWS NASA WITH NO NOISE! PEACE BE STILL ❤😊
Absaloutly incredible! Loved watching this ❤
The beauty of this place took my breath away!😊❤️
Love you all ❣️
Conteudo maravilhoso!!! Parabéns por mostrar essas fantasticas imagens!!! Amei❤❤❤❤❤
Mind blowing
The memories of being cabin crew…our polar suits - well, crew polar suits are extremely amazing
Marvellous
What an amazing trip! Thanks for sharing with us!
Very Beautifull Shooting ! what an incredible place...Thanks for posting this 👍 Amazing
That is a unbelievable place and a trip of a lifetime Thanks
Rich people have commercialized Antarctica .....insanely interesting!
That was just stunning! Exquisitely done!
This is insane!
As an Asian person who takes pics of all my food, thank you for getting all the shots and footage of the food..... I just ate udon with a dashi infused egg, slow cook pork, fish cake, and togarashi shichimi sprinkled about. Also liked City of Silent Wishes on Spotify (new to this channel, but I"m subscribing). EDIT: glad you chose the bike.
If I could go there, I would not miss even a moment, the beauty of Antarctica😍😍😍
As always, a stunning and relaxing video!
This has to be one of your best videos ever Dr. LTE! You captured the grandeur and awe of the seventh continent and this camp in a way that no one has ever before in my humble opinion. Well done sir!
Ai...
Wonderful Antarctica ❤❤❤❤❤
cinematography is amazing
This looks like such a unique hotel experience!
Wow the beautiful antartica
My God what a beautiful place and the people that dreamed White Desert and/or Echo into reality are quite amazing indeed.
Your video on the Antarctic was a revelation of beauty, capturing a world so pristine and untouched, it was nothing short of magical. Every frame painted a picture of nature's grandeur in its rawest form, with towering icebergs and the ethereal polar light creating a mesmerizing dance of colors. Watching it, I was overwhelmed with awe and gratitude. The way you showcased this frozen paradise spoke a language older than words, revealing the earth's hidden poetry and its enduring splendor. Your work is not just a visual journey; it's a testament to the staggering, untouched beauty of our planet. Thank you for sharing such a breathtaking and humbling experience.
