Abstract
Polar tourism refers to visits, excluding those for scientific research or support, to the Arctic (typically comprised of the states, water bodies, and islands north of the tree-line) or the Antarctic (often described as the continent itself, ice shelves, water, and islands south of the Antarctic Convergence). The geographic remoteness associated with unique biota, landscapes, and climate forms the appeal of the polar regions.
