A unique Arctic wilderness lying 80 degrees north, Svalbard is truly on the top of the world. Head north from here and all you'll encounter is Arctic ocean and ice. These remote islands of midnight sunshine are nothing short of spectacular. The landscapes of Spitsbergen are breathtaking; from sheer-sided fjords to polar desert, individual glaciers to infinite sheet ice. Each day brings a new highlight not to be forgotten. Explore history through visits to the old whaling settlements dating from the 16th century and send a postcard from the most northerly post office in the world. This is the stage for an incredible wildlife adventure as you go in search of reindeer, Arctic birds, seals, walruses, whales and above all the majestic Polar bear. Nothing compares to seeing these incredible giants in their natural habitat.

We also offer two special departures to the Canadian High Arctic. Follow in the footsteps of famous explorers such as Sir John Franklin, William Baffin and Roald Amundsen as you explore the Northwest Passage. You'll cruise through majestic fjords, travel to the foot of glaciers and crash through the ice as you keep your eyes peeled for whales, beluga, toothed narwhal and walrus not to mention Polar bears. Ashore there are vast colonies of kittiwakes and little auks as well as small Inuit communities who survive these harsh latitudes with age-old experience. This part of the Arctic remains unspoilt and hidden from mass tourism. For a Trip Dossier with map and full itinerary call one of our expert Travel Consultants or visit our website.
