    DAYS3-8 Svalbard

    By design, your travel in the archipelago is truly exploratory and your exact day-to-day movements will remain flexible, depending on local conditions. The main focus will be to explore and absorb the stunning early-season ice and dynamic landscapes each day under near-ideal light for photography. Like the icons of this icy realm—the walrus and the polar bear—your movements will be in reaction to the frozen seas and the shifting currents as your naturalists search for the creatures who thrive in this wintry wilderness. The polar bears will be returning to the spring ice floes where the seals are pupping, and the experienced staff will be on constant lookout for wildlife sightings. You’ll Zodiac cruise among the small ice floes and icebergs and maybe even set foot on the frozen ocean (only possible in the early season). The Arctic light at this time of year is exceptional and ever-changing and you will have the rare opportunity to witness it; chase the light with a National Geographic photography expert guiding you to assist in capturing the best photographs. 

     

    DAY9 Longyearbyen / Disembark Ship / Oslo

    Disembark in Longyearbyen for one more taste of civilization in this northern frontier. Join the recommended group flight to Oslo; transfers to the nearby hotel and luggage assistance will be provided. Upon arrival, overnight at the Radisson Blu Airport Hotel with dinner on your own.
