Tauck Tours Arctic Cruise 2019

On this exclusive cruise, you’ll be far above the Arctic Circle – the closest you can get to the North Pole!

On-board ship at night, enjoy talks, informal conversations with your expedition guides, exclusive BBC Earth films, and the camaraderie that only Arctic explorers can share. Book early – one trip only in 2019!

Departing June 24th, 2019, this unique Earth Journey, created with BBC Earth, is a 10-day trip – including a 7-night expedition cruise north of Norway in the wildlife capital of the Arctic – explores a remote archipelago of glaciers, fjords, and ice floes, revered for its silent majesty by nature lovers in the know.

From Oslo, fly to Spitsbergen's main settlement, Longyearbyen, and embark on a 7-night Arctic Ocean cruise aboard Le Boreal. Go where the weather and movement of wildlife tell you to go, seeking out tiny Svalbard reindeer, polar bears, walrus colonies, whales, Arctic foxes, puffins, and more. A wildlife filmmaker from BBC Earth and expedition naturalists accompany you on-board ship and ashore throughout your voyage in the land of the Midnight Sun, where daylight never ends. Come ashore by Zodiac with your naturalist guides and expedition leaders for rocky treks through this altogether otherworldly landscape of jagged mountains, steep-sided valleys, sheer cliffs, and crackling, calving glaciers.

Pricing starts at $13,390 CDN per person, and includes Tauck’s private shore excursions and distinctive inclusions (valued at nearly $4,000CDN) as well as all gratuities to Tauck directors, local guides, naturalists and ship staff.
