A remote archipelago situated just over 350 miles north of Norway’s North Cape, Svalbard is a place of deep fjords, mountains, and massive sheets of ice. This is as far north as it is possible to travel without an icebreaker, and it’s where you’ll experience the legendary midnight sun. Our flexible daily itinerary will focus on observing polar bear, reindeer, walrus, seals, and arctic foxes. Travel aboard the state-of-the-art 1A ice-class National Geographic Endeavor with Lindblad naturalists and faculty from Bryn Mawr and Vassar colleges, with whom we are co-sponsoring this trip.
