Depart
Embark: Longyearbyen, Svalbard
Disembark: Longyearbyen, Svalbard
Destinations: Blomstrandhalvoya and Ny Alesund in Kongsfjorden, Krossfjorden and the whaling relics of Amsterdamoya and Smeerenburg, Raudfjord, Liefdefjorden and the Monaco Glacier, Forlandsundet, St Johns Fjord or Alkhornet, subject to ice and weather.
Ships: Ortelius.
Duration: 8 days, 7 nights.
Paddle quiet inlets away from the ship, threading between ice floes. Guided in small groups, it offers an intimate, water-level perspective on the coastline and its wildlife, well suited to reasonably fit guests seeking time on the water.
Explore remote landscapes on foot, with guided hikes available for all ability levels—from relaxed walks to more challenging routes for experienced hikers.
Sharpen your eye alongside an onboard photographer, from composing icebergs to capturing wildlife in fading light. Sessions blend practical fieldwork with deck-side guidance, helping you return home with images that do justice to what you have seen.
Aboard a sturdy inflatable, you sit just above the waterline as your guide noses among brash ice and towering bergs. It is the closest encounter with the polar world, seals hauled out nearby, a whale surfacing, the deep quiet broken only by cracking ice.
