14‑day all‑inclusive Svalbard Expedition Cruise with round-trip flights from Oslo
Voyage Highlights
Wild nature, untamed scenery
Going further east than any of our other Svalbard expeditions, our goal is to fully circumnavigate the Svalbard archipelago – ice conditions permitting. Whether you opt to experience the ever-changing icescape of early summer, or see the kaleidoscope of colour later in the season, you’ll be immersed in incredible scenery and see iconic wildlife, with several days dedicated to exploring.
Land of infinite wonder
Svalbard contains vast and pristine nature reserves where few humans ever set foot. It’s the domain of seabirds, such as Brunnich’s Guillemots and kittiwakes, as well as mammals like reindeer, walruses and seals. Early in the season, we’ll explore close to the northern ice edge, a landscape that becomes dotted with wildflowers as summer arrives. As we sail, we’ll be on the lookout for marine animals in the waters around us, including graceful and mighty whales.
