Glacier Safari
After breakfast get ready for an exciting experience - explore the wonders of a wild, untouched and unruly archipelago north of mainland Norway. The landscape in this unique place, where nature dominates and the seasons dictate, is covered by active glaciers and towering mountains.

Unlike the glaciers on the mainland, the glaciers in Svalbard can recede slowly for many years before suddenly gaining rapid speed and advancing many kilometers within a few years. This spectacular process is known as surging and creates ice formations within the glacier that often calve into the sea.

Feel the sea breeze in your hair and experience the forces of nature as you travel on an exciting safari in a RIB boat.
