Well organized tour with excellent guide and driver The tour was excellent from beginning to end. Our first orientation meeting was efficient and well organized that set the stage for the trip that was flawless in execution. We were lucky to have a good group of compatible folks and all of the destinations were interesting and worthwhile. The pace was very good and enough time was spent when needed. The hotels were very good and the meals mostly at our expense were above expectation often prepared with quality chef skills. The only flaw was the bus was compact and a challenge to get on and off multiple times with backpacks and all but eventually we learned to manage and switched seats during the trip so everything worked out OK
We explored the Far North, discovering an Arctic world with wonderful new friends and grand daily adventures. We attended lectures, jumped into zodiacs for new shores, walked on the ice pack, learned about northern life and its peoples, and shared vibrant conversations at meals. Hotel staff very hospitable and expedition staff wise and fun. An outstanding adventure was had.
You certainly pack a lot into this 5 day trip which delivered despite the ever changing winter weather. Our guide Oskar as flexible with the itinerary which meant that we were able to get the most out of each day. The highlight was the glacier walk and we even got a glimpse of the northern lights one night.
