This 15-day journey—during which we will attempt a full circumnavigation of the Svalbard archipelago—is our most extensive expedition in Spitsbergen. This itinerary allows you to immerse yourself in the beauty of the archipelago and enjoy unique off-ship adventures. We'll keep a watchful eye for wildlife, on shore and on the water. We also plan to visit two birdwatching utopias, the 14th of July Glacier and famous Alkefjellet cliffs. This voyage truly is the big Arctic adventure you've been waiting for. Nature is the tour guide: Sea, ice, and weather conditions will affect your flights and trip itinerary. Embrace the unexpected.
