You see this Germany? Get those visas ready before you even THINK about going to Antarctica!

To visit Antarktis as a German citizen, you actually need a permission from the federal environment office (Umweltbundesamt).

It's protected environment by the Antarctic Treaty System. I guess you are being told about the do's and don'ts and get the permission easily.
