Arctic Holidays

The Arctic Circle encompasses eight countries and is home to a vast wilderness of dramatic mountains, rugged islands and huge ice sheets. With an incredible array of Arctic wildlife, this region has drawn naturalists, hardy explorers and those seeking tranquillity for hundreds of years.

There are a number of destinations to enjoy an Arctic holiday and a number of ways to do so. A small ship expedition cruise with the likes of G Adventures is extremely popular and travels to the remote reaches of Norway, Svalbard, Greenland and even the eastern shores of northern Canada.

If cruising is not for you, then a polar bear experience near Churchill, chasing the midnight sun through Yukon or dog sledding in the wild landscapes of Svalbard, a magical stay in Finnish Lapland or an Iceland adventure may just be the trip for you.
