Cruise Begins
  • Cruise Begins
  • Longyearbyen, Norway
After an early breakfast, you'll fly to Longyearbyen. A short panoramic bus tour offers a first glimpse of the town and its surroundings before lunch. Afterwards, enjoy some free time in Longyearbyen before being transferred to the ship for boarding. This former coal-mining settlement is small and easy to explore on foot. Wander along the main street, lined with boutique shops, an art gallery, and inviting restaurants. You might even spot a Svalbard reindeer wandering by. If you'd like to experience even more of Longyearbyen's unique surroundings, consider joining a voyage with an extended stay in Longyearbyen. ...

  • Ny Alesund, Norway
Experience science, serenity, and epic scenery. Today, you'll discover the serenity of Ny-Alesund and neighboring fjords such as Krossfjord and Kongsfjord. Disconnect and enjoy a day without distractions as the Norwegian Mapping Authority's nearby geodetic station means we must switch off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. One of the northernmost settlements and a former mining town, Ny-Alesund was the starting point for Roald Amundsen's expeditions north with the airship 'Norge'. Now a hub for global science and climate research, you can still see remnants of the town's history. You'll be immersed in rugged, glacial scenery as we explore the fjords around Ny-Alesund. Be ready for adventure; we'll seize any opportunity to launch our small expedition boats, go ashore to hike, or cruise by majestic glaciers. ...

  • Spitsbergen National Park, Norway
Over the next two days, we'll explore the rugged tundra of this breathtaking national park, where steep mountains, glaciers, and offshore islands form a unique Arctic landscape. We'll scout for seals, walrus, and reindeer, and early in the season there's a good chance of spotting polar bears too, so we'll always be on the lookout for these iconic but elusive predators. This is also one of Svalbard's most historically rich areas, full of artefacts from its exploratory past. Be ready for adventure: we'll seize any opportunity to launch kayaks, head ashore by Zodiac to hike, or take part in a beach clean-up. ...

Cruising the Polar Ice Cap
  • Cruising the Polar Ice Cap
Experience the opportunity of sailing to the edge of the polar ice cap. If conditions allow, we'll sail north and cross the 80th parallel to explore the ever-changing ice edge. The transition zone between the ice cap and the sea is a magical yet ephemeral place where the waters are filled with ice floes and drifting pack ice. From the ship, there are great opportunities for spotting wildlife, such as seals and walruses who lounge on the sparkling ice. And if the conditions are right, we'll lower our Zodiacs into the water and enjoy an unforgettable close-up experience amid the floating ice. The ice edge isn't a fixed boundary. It shifts with the season and conditions, so reaching it is an attempt rather than a certainty. From May to August, as summer progresses, it retreats further towards the pole and may be out of reach. If so, we'll explore the no-less-impressive fjords, glaciers, and incredible scenery of the Svalbard coast. ...

  • Svalbard, Norway
Scouting for polar bears, seabirds, and walruses. Be ready for anything as this stage of your voyage continues to be truly adventurous. If sea ice permits, we'll continue east, exploring the pristine wilderness of northeast Svalbard before heading south in our attempt to fully circumnavigate the archipelago. Perhaps we'll head to the immense Brasvellbreen glacier to see waterfalls tumbling into the icy depths, or lower our small boats around Kvitoya. Every day in the east will be a new opportunity to look for polar bears roaming the ice. Continuing south, we may head to Freemansundet or take our small expedition boats to Edgeoya or Barentsoya. In true expedition style, exactly where we'll go will depend on the conditions on the day. Channel your inner explorer on exhilarating landings, hikes, and kayak trips, and look out for wildlife. And if the ice doesn't allow us to pass to the east, you'll experience just as much adventure: we'll delve deeper into the wonders of western Svalbard or attempt to circumnavigate Spitsbergen through the Hinlopen Strait. We'll take a flexible route through deep fjords and by soaring mountains, seeking out remarkable Arctic wildlife. ...

  • Bellsund, Norway
Majestic glaciers, birds, and pioneer history. Your expedition cruise continues south towards Hornsund - one of Svalbard's most beautiful fjords. Colorful vegetation makes way for towering mountains along this picturesque waterway. The cliffs here are home to large colonies of auks, guillemots, and northern fulmars along with Arctic foxes and Svalbard reindeer below. Head out on deck to spot seals and whales, Mount Hornsundtind, and glaciers reaching into the sea, and learn about Wanny Woldstad, the first female trapper to hunt in Svalbard. Then we head to admire the classic beauty of the snowcapped mountains of Bellsund - a historic area where you can see the evidence of former whaling and mining activity on the shoreline. Our activities today will be determined by the ever-changing weather conditions of Hornsund and Bellsund. Your Expedition Team will decide on the best possibilities for exploring on the day. ...
