SMALL GROUP ADVENTURES IN THE ARCTIC

Looking for that sweet spot between independent backpacking and a package holiday?

Travelling as part of a Small Group tour has its perks.   There are local expert tour leaders to take the hassle out of travel arrangements and show you the sights, plus a group of like-minded travellers to share the fun with.  All you have to do is turn up with a smile and a passport

Groups are small, normally 8-16 people, meaning the trips aren’t disruptive to the places we visit, and a smaller number creates a good group dynamic; you’ll get to know a range of people from different backgrounds with a shared interest in travel.

Got the urge for adventure, but no-one to do it with? Over half of the travellers on Small Group trips are travelling solo.

Midnight sun, ethereal natural light shows and preening polar bears – welcome to the edge of the map!  Journey to this astounding and isolated frozen Arctic region and marvel at incredible ice shapes, then search for polar bear, walrus, arctic fox and seal. Sail through the stunning glacial scenery that surrounds the arctic tundra. A trip to the Arctic is a once-in-a-lifetime experience you’ll never forget.

Leave civilisation behind and go in search of

  • Join an expedition voyage around Svalbard to experience the wilderness of the Arctic Ocean.
  • Cruise through a sea of icebergs and keep a lookout for arctic wildlife resting on ice floes.
  • Explore majestic fjords where glaciers meet the ocean and step ashore to uncover rare flora and fauna existing in the bleak tundra.
  • Visit the world's northernmost active volcano, Jan Mayen, and hike around the island to spot whale, dolphin and giant glaciers.
  • Cross the fertile plains of a polar bear migration trail and experience the warm welcome of local Inuit people in remote Greenland settlements.

Whatever it is that draws you to the Arctic, let us take you there.

World Class Adventures has access to the best tour operators and will tailor the perfect holiday just for you.

THE ARCTIC IS COMPLETELY UNIQUE

Polar voyages in the Arctic are a summer affair, as key destinations are only accessible between June and September when enough sea ice has melted to allow exploration by ship.

High summer is prime time for seeing wildlife. Seabirds nest in their millions on sea cliffs in the Svalbard archipelago, while geese, swans and Arctic terns raise their young on the open tundra. Camouflaged in their brown summer coats, egg-raiding Arctic foxes are on the prowl, while polar bears can be seen foraging, and stalking seals. Walruses are frequently encountered and there’s also a good chance of spotting humpback, minke, fin and blue whales, plus narwhal, orca and beluga.

During shore excursions, via kayak from the ship, you’ll be able to tiptoe through the tundra, observing the profusion of delicate Arctic flowers that need to bloom and set seed during the brief Arctic summer.
