ITINERARY
Jul
16 Tromso,
Norway Depart: 5:00PM
Not
only will you witness magnificent fjords and glaciers throughout
Tromsø, Norway, but you will also immerse yourself in a
sophisticated cultural life and architectural delights. A superb
example of blending the built environment with the natural setting is
the Arctic Cathedral, an architectural marvel made up of
aluminum-coated concrete panels, making it a stunning façade
resembling an iceberg. To see the real icebergs, all you have to do is
take the Fjellheisen cable car 1,525 feet above sea level for
incredible views of the Norwegian fjords. You can also stroll around
the Arctic-Alpine Botanical Garden, visit the Science Centre of
Northern Norway or gain new knowledge at the city’s museums
including the Polar Museum, Tromsø University Museum, and
Perspektivet Museum.
Jul
17 Bjornoya (Bear Island),
Norway Arrive: 4:00PM Depart: 6:30PM
Bjørnøya
(Bear Island) is the southernmost island of the Svalbard archipelago,
halfway between Norway and Spitsbergen. Bear Island was discovered by
the Dutch explorers Willem Barentsz and Jacob van Heemskerck in 1596.
It was named after a polar bear that was seen swimming nearby. The
Russian Pomors came to Bjørnøya to hunt in the
late 1700s and left several remains of houses and grave sites for
present-day and future explorers to find. The oldest kept hunting cabin
in Svalbard, the Hammerfest House, was built in 1822. Despite its
remote location and barren nature, there are personnel working at the
island’s meteorological station Herwighamna.
Jul
18 Trygghamma, Alkhornet, Svalbard,
Norway Arrive: 1:30PM Depart: 6:00PM
The
name Trygghamna means safe haven, and it really is. This harbor offers
great anchorage for an adventure ashore. If you step foot on this land,
you’ll find the rocks here date back millennia. Over on
Alkhornet, there are fantastic limestone formations that capture your
imagination. Avid birders will be busy looking up toward the
mountain’s cliffs, as this area was designated as an
Important Bird Area by Birdlife International for its more than 10,000
breeding pairs of seabirds. Below the cliffs the mossy tundra provides
lush grazing grounds for reindeer and Arctic foxes.
Jul
19 lillihooek Galcier, Signehamna,
Norway Arrive: 8:00AM Depart: 12:30PM
One
of the largest glacial fronts in Svalbard is
Lilliehöök Glacier, which makes for spectacular
navigation around the small icebergs. Beluga whales are ever present in
these nutrient rich waters, so keep an eye out for the white fins. Much
of Svalbard’s coastline is dotted with interesting history,
especially in Signehamna. It was a weather station secretly erected by
the Germans at the height of World War II. Eventually it was bombed by
the Norwegians and has been reduced to nothing more than rusted
barrels, rubber boots and trunks long beyond repair. It remains as a
somber reminder of the far-reaches of this war, even in the most remote
corners.

sense of adventure and an element of surprise. Your ship’s
master will sail around changing weather conditions as needed and take
you to the best areas for wildlife viewing.
Jul
20 Monacobreen, Texas Bar,
Norway Arrive: 8:00AM Depart: 12:30PM
Liefdefjorden,
or “The Love Fjord,” is the western arm of the
Woodfjord, its entirety of which is located inside the Northwest
Spitsbergen National Park. At the head of the fjord is the stunning
Monacobreen glacier. Before you see Moancobreen, you may be able to
hear it. Named to honor the first Prince Albert of Monaco, a pioneering
polar explorer of the early 20th century, this immense glacier flows
into the far end of the Liefdefjorden. When ice calves off the cliff
and into the ocean, the sound can be heard for miles around. Imposing
icebergs floating in the middle of the fjord are the result of this.

Jul
21 Mushamna, Norway
Arrive: 8:00AM Depart: 12:00PM
Your
itinerary includes a call on the bay of Mushamna. This icy body of
water is on the east side of Woodfjord on the north coast of
Spitsbergen. The bay is actually a lagoon that is separated from the
fjord by a long, narrow gravel bar. Luckily, your ship is just the
right size to enter and find a sheltered docking point. On your
landing, you may be able to reach a couple of huts north of Mushamna.
The most eye-catching one is a large trapper hut built in solid
log-cabin style. In this environment, it may seem like a luxurious
mansion compared to other trapper huts.

Jul
22 Alkekongen, Norway
Arrive: 8:00AM Depart: 12:30PM
In
this untouched and remote region, it may seem like time is frozen as
the white and blue glaciers. You are sure to appreciate every moment in
this region where so few have ventured, including Alkekongen.
Magdalenefjorden is in the northwestern part of Spitsbergen, about the
first part of the island that was discovered by Dutch explorer Willem
Barents during his famed voyage in 1596. Less than two decades later,
Englishman Robert Fotherby claimed the fjord. Here you can also view a
surprising variety of wildlife, especially in the coves and cliffs
sheltering thousands of birds.

Jul
23 Longyearbyen, Svalbard,
Norway Arrive: 8:00AM
Longyearbyen
is in a valley on the shores of the idyllic Adventfjord, surrounded by
steep mountains and several glaciers. There are only around 25 miles of
roads in this village, which is divided into several neighborhoods,
including the town center and Nybyen (New Town), which consists of
charming miners’ barracks constructed after the war, as well
as guest houses, a restaurant and gallery, and not to mention beautiful
views of the landmark mountain, Hiorthfjellet. Be sure to visit the
Svalbard museum as a break between the plethora of activities like
summer dogsledding or cruising to the abandoned Russian city of
Pyramiden
World Navigator (Luxury Expedition, 198-guests)
