Enjoy the immense beauty of Svalbard on this high Arctic voyage among whales, walruses, polar bears and millions of sea birds. Explore the largest protected areas in the Arctic and cruise to 80 degrees north, while enjoying the spectacular fjords and glacial landscapes of this breathtaking archipelago. The cliffs shimmer with life as every surface is populated with countless birds, getting ready to flee their nests.

A real level 4 trip, with steep sections on most days, some scrambling and rocky paths, but also some gentler parts along ridges and the coastline, with the rewarding views over majestic fjords, hidden beaches and colourful villages and the Lofoten archipelago in the background.

While I don’t really think anyone should be setting foot on this pristine wilderness, the planning and management of the sailing and Zodiac experiences raised customers’ consciousness of the potential damage. We were expected to walk in each other’s footprints to avoid damage to the fragile plants and soils, but in reality the terrain, and some of the attitudes, made this very difficult. It was sad to see tiny saxifrage plants ground into mud, aged lichens kicked off rocks. Even sea ice must be damaged by the ship. We did learn a lot about the environment and the ship seemed better suited than others.
But should anyone be going for fun and exacerbating the climate related destruction?

The Faroe Islands is an excellent hiking destination combining mountain and coastal scenery to rival anywhere in northern Europe. This itinerary offers beautiful and varied walks on each day that were ready to be adapted for weather if necessary by our wonderfully enthusiastic Faroese guide who also taught us much about the island's proud culture.
Come prepared for all conditions including the possibility of flight delays due to fog. This risk can be mitigated by choosing to fly with the local carrier, Atlantic Airways who are better equipped to land if such conditions occur.
