It would probably be to difficult to transport the teams in and out of Antarctica in the one or two day time frame the Race likes.

They could go back and do a cruise to Antarctica, (2 days) and a leg (a day) there. Then charter planes would fly them out to their next destination likely South Africa.
Problems: Cost and time consuming.

What would they do in Antarctica?

Count penguins (or do something involving penguins, seals or other wildlife), climb an icy cliff, cross country ski, ride a snowmobile or snowcat and take an ozone measurement are just a few ideas. There are also a number of places with old shacks and what not left over from past expeditions. If they went inland, there are mountains and volcanoes that could be partially hiked.
Afterward, they could give back to the Antarctic by staying over a day and rebuilding an ice shelf. :cmas22
Or they could just collect old rubbish and cart it out.
Realistically though, it's probably just too expensive to do.

What's more annoying is no Africa. My favorite races have been the ones w/ the 4 traditional continents: Europe, Africa, and Asia.
The only destination that makes no sense to me is Japan. Seems really out of the way...

Well, they went to Africa in TAR 17 and they don't usually travel there twice on a row.

I forgot about Madagascar in TAR 10 and the Seychelles in TAR 16! Those are tricky!

Didn't Season 15 visit Africa when they went to Dubai?
