___________________
Join Swan Hellenic for the adventure of a lifetime on exploring the remote and rarely visited High Arctic. Begin your voyage in the enchanting city of Tromso. Under the soft glow of the midnight sun, navigate through the isolated wilderness of Bear Island, and immerse yourself in the extraordinary, icy landscapes of the Svalbard archipelago – where the polar bear is king. Marvel at the immense size of the glacial Monacobreen, listen to the clamoring bird cliffs at Alkefjellet, and take in the breathtaking vistas of Svingeldalen. You`ll cruise around Cape Lee and Dolerittneset before venturing to Koefoedodden on Hopen Island. Returning to Norway, you will stop in the quaint village of Skarsvag, the iconic North Cape, before journeying to Alta – `the city of the Northern Lights` and concluding back where it all began – Tromso.
