About the trip

This 10-night expedition with G Adventures covers a notable Arctic arc, beginning in Norway’s Tromsø and threading through the Norwegian Sea to Greenland and the remote islands of Svalbard. Along the way, the trip takes in Bear Island — a less frequented dot in the Arctic’s vast expanse — along with unbeatable views of glacier-backed fjords and the ice-scored coastline of Svalbard.

Travellers will spend time ashore in quiet fishing communities, taking gentle walks across tundra likely grazed by reindeer. Zodiac boats are used to navigate close to floating ice floes and to watch for the more elusive local residents: polar bears, seals, and a variety of seabirds under the endless daylight of the Arctic summer. The expedition team combines natural science and history, with informal lectures to add depth to the experience.

This is an adventure with moments of calm observation as well as the occasional brisk landing over ice-slick rocks. Waterproof boots and warm layers come recommended for these excursions — not fashion statements, but sensible kit for a place where the terrain is as changeable as the light.
