Book yourself on your very own Frozen Planet trip to the Arctic
The success of the BBC series Frozen Planet has brought amazing images of the Arctic right into your home. Now if you want to go on a voyage of a lifetime to see all the sights and sounds of the frozen world yourself, Exodus is a specialist when it comes to these sort of expeditions.
The Spitsbergen (Norway), Greenland and Iceland tour from Exodus will take you on a 15 day voyage of discovery encompassing three Arctic countries with dramatic, contrasting and wonderfully desolate landscapes that are unique in the world.
Wildlife is abundant and you’ll see bears, walrus, foxes and birdlife as the ship crosses the Greenland Sea to explore the rugged coast and then into the largest fjord complexs in the world, Scoresbysund. You will then enjoy the volcanic Westman Islands.
As you will be travelling above the Arctic Circle, you will enjoy pretty much 24 hours sunlight, so you can watch your surroundings all day and all night!
The boat you’ll be travelling on is the Akademik Sergey Vavilov, built in Finland for the Russian Academy of Science for high-tech missions at sea. The ship is quick, quiet and stable. Onboard there is a gym, two saunas and a library and there are just 104 guests onboard.
You will spend 13 nights onboard the boat on a full board basis. There are two departures for the Spitsbergen, Greenland and Iceland tour in 2012 9th August 2012 and 21st August 2012, at a price of £4990 per person.
