Three Arctic islands, one far-reaching expedition.

Begin in Paris before travelling north to Longyearbyen in Svalbard, Norway. From there, Heritage Discoverer follows a 15-day route through the High Arctic, linking Svalbard’s wildlife-rich fjords, the vast ice landscapes of East Greenland and Iceland’s remote western coast.

This is a true expedition route. Sea ice, weather and wildlife shape the daily programme, and the ship’s ice-class capability, Zodiacs and experienced expedition team allow the voyage to respond to opportunities as they arise.

SSV guides lead the optional kayaking group, selecting suitable locations in Svalbard, Greenland and Iceland as conditions allow. Paddlers should have some previous kayak experience and be comfortable following guide instructions in cold-water environments.
