Spitsbergen - Polar Bear Holidays

The Land of the Polar Bear - Holidays in Spitsbergen

As one of the most northern landmasses Spitsbergen is a unique place and ideal for polar bear holidays. The region’s capital Longyearbyen is home to the world’s most northern art gallery, cinema, bank, hospital and public library. By many standards anywhere north of Longyearbyen is beyond civilisation. Even around the capital you feel removed from the world to the south; this is a place where your thoughts can stretch out and you can start to relax. Our polar bear holiday cruises allow you to experience this wilderness and stay in touch with the amenities of modern day living. The cruise ship for our polar bear holidays is a converted ice breaker which has been tailored for expedition voyaging; it is both comfortable and safe, falling into the shipping category of a “Ice 1A Super” which means it is cleared to operate in areas where ice floes can be expected to be one metre thick.
