Day 1: Longyearbyen

Get a first glimpse of the midnight sun in Longyearbyen, Spitsbergen’s capital. Transfer from the city to the G Expedition for a late afternoon embarkation.

Days 2–10: Spitsbergen

Each day is planned to take advantage of local ice and weather conditions. Svalbard is one of the few places on the planet to offer such a plethora of natural and historical extravaganzas. Spend the next nine days exploring the remote polar regions. Visit ice-sculpted fjords with breathtaking mountain scenery, and glaciers crashing into the sea. Spend time exploring pack ice edges in search of polar bears hunting seals. At one or more of the stops, it’s possible to encounter Svalbard’s Arctic fox and the region’s unique reindeer.

Day 11: Longyearbyen

On departure day, transfers to the Longyearbyen airport will be offered to all passengers with flights scheduled.
