Svalbard / Spitsbergen

Remote, mysterious, extreme and located on the southern fringe of the frozen Arctic Ocean, Spitsbergen is a land forged by ice, wind and sea. Spend time exploring the natural wilderness searching for polar bears hunting seals. Our expedition style landings take you close to the wildlife, the ghost towns of early whaling stations, remote mining towns and spectacular fjords and icebergs.

The Patel family about Svalbard: The feeling of crossing the line of 80° North and arriving at Mofen island whilst experiencing midnight Sun was the one out of this world.

HIGH ARCTIC OF SVALBARD
11 Day Tromso to Tromso

Join us for the adventure of a lifetime on exploring the remote and rarely visited High Arctic. Begin your voyage in the enchanting city of Tromsø. Under the soft glow of the midnight sun, navigate through the isolated wilderness of Bear Island, and immerse yourself in the extraordinary, icy landscapes of the Svalbard archipelago – where the polar bear is king. Marvel at the immense size of the glacial Monacobreen, listen to the clamoring bird cliffs at Alkefjellet, and take in the breathtaking vistas of Svingeldalen. We'll cruise around Cape Lee and Dolerittneset before venturing to Koefoedodden on Hopen Island. Returning to Norway, we will stop in the quaint village of Skarsvåg, the iconic North Cape, before journeying to Alta – 'the city of the Northern Lights’ and concluding back where it all began – Tromsø.

EXPEDITION SVALBARD
12 Day Longyearbyen to Longyearbyen

Join a once-in-a-lifetime adventure through the magnificent wildernesses of Svalbard!

In July the summer has arrived, the midnight sun reigns supreme and the purple saxifrage decorates the slopes. The ice is slowly starting to loosen its grip, which offers good opportunities to explore the seldom visited eastern parts of the archipelago. Whales are more frequently seen in the waters and more and more snowfree areas become accessible for longer walks. With ten nights on board we have plenty of time for grand nature experiences.

Autumn arrive in late August. The tundra is shifting in autumn colours and the midnight sun is getting closer and closer sun is closer to the horizon, preparing for the polar night, giving us beautiful sunsets and a warm light, perfect for photography.

On Jul 09,2024 Departure We are proud to present Doug Allan, award-winning polar photographer and cameraman, as special lecturer on this voyage.

At the height of polar summer, day and night become one as the Midnight Sun remains in the sky around the clock. Svalbard comes to life with unexpected flora and incredible fauna.
