Join us in the realm of Polar Bears, Walruses, & the most beautiful ice in the world! Svalbard (also known as Spitsbergen) is the premier hub for exploring this polar region. Touched by three seas – The Norwegian Sea, the Greenland Sea, and the Arctic Ocean – Svalbard is the largest and only permanently populated island of the Svalbard archipelago of northern Norway. By far the largest wilderness area in Europe, Svalbard offers some of the finest scenery and wildlife experiences in the world. Its rugged mountains and rolling tundra offer plenty of opportunities for hiking, snowshoeing, photography, and all-around polar adventure. Our travel club has partnered with the best-specialized operator in the industry taking groups to the Arctic and Antarctic for over 25 years!

Activities & Adventures are included!

Shore Excursions and Zodiac Cruises: Zodiac rides emphasize active wildlife and nature experiences. Guided shore excursions, walks, wildlife spotting, etc.

Shore Based Walking: Our guides will lead the shore excursions and will decide where to go and what to do.

Hiking: Expand upon the normal shore walking program on optional hikes.

Bird Watching: With your guide, spot the various species of local animals.

Workshops & Lectures: If we are unable to disembark for a planned activity due to weather conditions, etc. we’ll sometimes have the option of enjoying interactive workshops and activities.

Wildlife: These parts are visited and occupied by walrus, several types of whales, polar bears, several types of seals, reindeer, Arctic fox, puffins, migratory birds, and others.
