Aboard: MS Spitsbergen
Join us for this wonderful cruise around the Svalbard archipelago, with a circumnavigation of Spitsbergen, to discover the area’s fascinating wildlife and stunning scenery. Enjoying exciting landings, hikes, Zodiac excursions and optional kayaking activities throughout we aim to sail well above the 80th parallel and bring you closer than 600 nautical miles from the Geographical North Pole. Visiting the great eastern nature reserves and experiencing some of the most spectacular highlights of the Arctic, we will be on a constant look out for wildlife, with sightings of Polar Bears, reindeers, Arctic foxes, seals and thousands of seabirds very likely.
This 12 day expedition gives us 2 more days to venture even further Northeast to discover rarely explored areas like Kvitøya.
