Spitsbergen and Svalbard Cruise Holidays
Spitsbergen or Svalbard as it is also known, is situated 300 miles beyond Norway's northernmost tip and 600 miles from The North Pole itself, is as close as you can get to being on top of the world. With a local polar bear population estimate at around 2,300, that's more bears than people, Spitsbergen is arguably the best place on earth to see the world's largest land carnivore in its natural habitat.
Under the perpetual midnight sun, explore Spitsbergen's dramatic scenery, ice-choked fjords and wildlife aboard a small expeditionary ship. Our Spitsbergen Polar Bear cruises from June to August provide a perfect introduction to the wildlife, history and stunning geography of this magical Arctic archipelago. Daily guided excursions by zodiac to cruise along glacier fronts, search for polar bear and walrus and walk the Arctic tundra. Combined with its relatively easy access via Oslo from London, the wonders of Spitsbergen couldn't be more appealing to the intrepid traveller.
