Arctic Cruises and Antarctic Cruise Adventures to North Pole, Spitsbergen, Greenland, Falklands, Patagonia

Arctic Adventure Cruises - in the Realm of the Polar Bear

Travel to some of the most exciting areas in the world - the home of the polar bear, glaciers, icebergs and fascinating flora and fauna

We offer a fine collection of adventure and expedition cruises to the Arctic with excursions ashore to view the sights - even to the North Pole itself! This is the land of the Midnight Sun, where the sun barely sets throughout the summer.

Four different cruises are offered to Spitsbergen, the largest island in the starkly beautiful Svalbard Archipelago.

400 miles north of mainland Norway Spitsbergen is just 600 miles from the North Pole itself. Spectacular cliffs dominate the coastline with deep hidden fjords and colourful villages. Plants and migratory birds flourish in this national park, alongside reindeer, seals, arctic foxes and polar bears.

Still within the Arctic Circle our six Greenland adventure cruises take you to the heart of the largest island in the World.

We offer a wide selection of cruises which explore both the ice covered extremities of northern Greenland and the staggeringly fertile green expanses of southern Greenland

Go to the North Pole on our Icebreaker Cruise from Murmansk to the Pole itself, with included helicopter and Zodiac excursions.

The best way to experience this fantastic Arctic landscape is from a ship, and you have various different voyages to choose from.
