Discover the stark beauty of Alkefjellet, Svalbard, on our 13 exceptional Arctic cruises for 2024. This remote region, part of the Svalbard archipelago, is a sanctuary where the rugged cliffs meet the icy embrace of the Arctic waters. Here, amidst the realm of the polar bear and under the glow of the midnight sun, you can engage in wildlife viewing that is as profound as it is unforgettable. Over the course of 6 to 14 days, adventurers can immerse themselves in the Arctic's pristine wilderness, navigating by Zodiac to capture the perfect photograph of the indigenous fauna or hiking the polar deserts that stretch out like a white canvas. With a starting point at $4,990, these expeditions offer a symphony of Arctic experiences, from the thunderous crack of calving glaciers to the serene silence of snow-covered landscapes. To capture the essence of the Arctic and weave it into the tapestry of your life's adventures, contact one of Adventure Life's Svalbard specialists for help planning your next seamless trip.

Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
