Northern Europe Boat Tours, Water Sports and Marine Wildlife 2024/2025

“Great trip!Our first sighting of a polar bear was amazing.Watching the icebreaker ship going through the dense pack ice was awesome.Standing and spending several hours on the North Pole was a wonderful experience made more special as we reached the North Pole on the day of the summer solstice. We stayed overnight at the Pole on the icebreaker and spent several hours the following day on the north pole.Once in a life time experience!”

“Such a privilege, travelling on a nuclear-powered Russian icebreaker which spends most of the year keeping the northern Russian seaways clear for cargo ships: a brilliant job was due to convert it temporarily for tourists. The dour Heroes of the Motherland were retained to crew the vessel which made it all the more atmospheric, but they couldnt compete for character with the polar bears, especially the one who was so co-operative for photos despite us having distracted him from his kill.The only downside was that we werent warned how hot the boat is: future travellers need to take some light clothing for indoors.”

“Probably the very best way in a short time to see and understand eastern Greenland, its awesome scenery and a remoteness unfamiliar to the vast majority of us. Titling it 'Northern Lights' though was perhaps risky and could be misleading; we did see them but only just and was certainly not the highlight for me.”
