An Arctic holiday promises to be a unique experience in many ways, whether it is enjoying the company of new friends and sharing a ‘once in a lifetime experience’ or savouring the gentle unfolding of each day’s activities as they offer you a wealth of choice! The Arctic At the very top of the world, the Arctic regions include Northern Norway and Svalbard, Greenland, Northern Canada and Alaska. Although Russia has the largest land mass in the area and the Franz Joseph Land archipelago, they are not readily accessible as tourist areas. The Arctic, the land of the midnight sun, of snow and ice, offers some of the finest scenery and wildlife experiences in the world. Visitors to the region can witness enormous colonies of seabirds thronging the cliffs and shores, and enjoy the thrilling antics of whales at sea, and seals and walruses hauled out on rocks and ice-floes. The proximity of the pack-ice offers spectacular cruising between ice-floes.
