With Henry Cookson - British Adventurer, World Record Breaker and Founder of Cookson Adventures

  • Summary

  • This week we are so excited to welcome Henry Cookson - British polar explorer, adventurer and founder of Cookson Adventures.


    The Financial Times describes Henry Cookson as ‘a 2.0 version of the traditional fearless British explorer’.
    Since achieving a world record for kite-skiing to the Antarctic Pole of Inaccessibility and guiding Harry the Duke of Sussex’s charity expedition to the North Pole, he continues to set new benchmarks in ultra-luxury travel.


    Henry's long list of conquests include a record breaking expedition to the Southern Pole of inaccessibility, organising the first commercial submersible dive in Antarctica and monumental contributions to conservation across the globe.


    Together with his hand-picked team at Cookson Adventures, not only does he guide and host many of the trips they organise, but he is consistently sought to speak with authority on the cutting edge of global travel and expeditions. Through his work, several million in donations has been raised for charitable causes.
