What about Prince Philip's visit in January 1957?

According to my research he visited many islands a long way south but didn't actually go to Antarctica itself.

 

[selrahc4]

According to my research he visited many islands a long way south but didn't actually go to Antarctica itself.

I have a book which shows the route of his 56-57 three month tour on a map and it indicates a visit to Graham Land in Antarctica. I'm at work and don't have it available right now, though, so I'll look again when I'm home.

I did find this online link:
