Luxury Svalbard Expedition Cruise
Luxury Svalbard Expedition Cruise
This 6-night expedition is a once-in-a-lifetime week spent deep within Svalbard’s all-encompassing wilderness, experienced in genuine ultra-luxury. There are no distractions and no days at sea, only silence, ice, wildlife and long golden hours of adventure under the midnight sun. Looping round-trip from the tiny capital of Longyearbyen, you devote the entire week to the archipelago itself, with up to eighteen shore excursions across its northern and southern regions. You seek polar bears roaming the shoreline and glaciers calving into icy fjords, and watch extraordinary wildlife: walrus hauled out on rocky beaches, cliffs filled with seabirds, minke and beluga whales surfacing alongside. Your home is an all-suite expedition ship of exceptional refinement, with a butler for every suite, near to one crew member for every guest, a choice of restaurants, unlimited champagne and fine wines, a spa and enrichment lectures. This is Svalbard at its most immersive, and its most indulgent.

FAQs
This is an intensive round-trip from Longyearbyen devoted entirely to Svalbard, with no days at sea. You explore both the northern and southern regions of the archipelago in depth, with up to eighteen shore excursions across the week, a deep and unhurried immersion rather than a long-distance transit.
Everything is ultra-luxury and all-inclusive: an all-suite ship with a butler for every suite, near to one crew member per guest, a choice of restaurants, unlimited champagne and fine wines, a spa, and the finest Zodiac and expert ratios at sea. It pairs serious expedition capability with the comfort of a luxury yacht.
Svalbard’s full cast: polar bears along the shoreline, walrus hauled out on beaches, cliffs filled with seabirds, and minke and beluga whales in the fjords, all against calving glaciers and drifting ice. Wildlife is wild and never guaranteed, but an intensive week of excursions gives outstanding chances.
The fare is cruise-inclusive, and an optional flight package can add international flights, transfers and hotels for a seamless door-to-ship arrangement. Without it, you arrange your own flights to Longyearbyen, and your Expedition Expert can advise.
