Svalbard Expedition
Adventure of a lifetime: Svalbard
From dog sledding tours and polar bears to the Northern Lights tours, our travel package to Svalbard has it all
When we heard about Svalbard for the first time we thought “but how can anyone enjoy living on an island where there are more bears than people?”. The truth is that Svalbard has a community of upbeat and lively individuals of different nationalities, which makes Longyearbyen a city full of life. There is a great variety of tours, from Snowmobile tours to Bird Watching tours, Northern Lights and Midnight Sun tours. Most of the tours in Svalbard depart from Longyearbyen and they are only available seasonally. Due to this reason, your tours might only be available during a certain part of the year. Take a look at our travel package below to know more.

What can you expect in Svalbard?
Svalbard has a small town called Longyearbyen and some places you should visit. Longyearbyen is where you’ll be staying most of the time, unless you want to take a snowmobile excursion tour to Pyramiden, where you can take a tour visit the bunker where all the seeds in the world are kept. Or, if you prefer, why not doing a tour to the east coast to look for polar bears? Or a dog sled tour to the Ice Cave?
