SVALBARD WILDLIFE SAFARI
The Polar Archipelago
Trip Highlights
Fly into the most northerly city in the world, Longyearbyen, and experience the land of the midnight sun.
Explore the epic glacial landscapes of Svalbard and the frozen beauty of the Arctic Ocean.
Wake up each day in Europe’s largest wilderness and search for elusive wildlife, guided by expert naturalists and historians.
Join an intimate group of just 12 passengers as you discover the wild coasts of the Svalbard Archipelago.
Traveling in a Polar Wilderness
A trip to the Svalbard Archipelago is likely to be very different from any experience you've had before. It is a true polar wilderness, the kingdom of the largest land predator on the planet Earth - the Polar bear.
Polar bears are not the only denizens of the rocky fells of Svalbard. A voyage around the archipelago's rich coastline will reveal the boisterous bedlam of migratory bird colonies, rippling haul-outs of the stately Atlantic walrus, and, if luck prevails, some of Svalbard’s recovering population of great whales.
Though there are no guarantees during a trip through one of Earth's last great wildernesses, here is what we can assure you of on a trip with Arctic Tern Expeditions:
Comfortable accommodations on a sound expedition-style vessel well-equipped for the icy waters of Svalbard.
Professional and knowledgeable guides who are passionate about this incredible wilderness.
Carefully managed operations both on the ship and onshore, with safety as our first priority.

A personable small-group experience in which you can expect the utmost consideration as our guest.
