Are there any single rooms?

On our cruise 17 May - 28 May 2025 British Isles & Faroes we have a classic suite that can be booked as a single cabin with a single supplement 1.7. At the moment, there is a Valentine's offer with 15% discount per person. The discounted price for a Classic suite is USD 7 051 per person. The total cost of a Classic suite for a single use is USD 11 987. Please be aware that there is only one last classic suite available on this cruise, therefore if you planned on booking this cruise, it is better to make a booking as soon as possible.

Please advise single rates

You requested for single rates and we would like to reconfirm if you prefer a single cabin or can share a cabin with other female-passengers? If you prefer a single cabin, we have specially priced single suites for those travelers who would like to stay alone but don't want to pay the full single supplement. A single suite will cost 10,795 euros. This price is lower than other single cabin prices because this cabin is located close to the bow of the ship and it's window is usually shuttered on sea days. If you are willing to share a cabin, please let us know and we will send you more options.

What is the rate to add two nights accommodations post tour?

What other criteria is considered besides gender for triple suite-share occupancy? Will they be matched with someone of similar age as well?

Are there other departure dates? I'm interested in July, August, September.

Unfortunately, this particular itinerary implies a certain timeframe when we can operate it, the closest date being 19 May - 30 May 2024. In July, August, and September we explore Svalbard, Greenland, and Iceland.

Is there an extra cost for single accommodation

We have two single suits aboard Sea Spirit. The regular cost of the single suite is USD 11 195. To answer your question, yes, a single cabin always costs more than a sharing cabin because you will not have any co-travellers in the cabin with you. Our last minute offer allows you to book a single cabin at a half price - USD 5 598!

First of all, when we were dropped off at Longyearbyen, there were no instructions for us as to where and what we should see and do. We were just told to meet at 4 PM to go to the ship. The crew leader did not show us any slides for the anticipated hikes so it was difficult to make decisions as to which ones were suitable. The crew on land were not as informative about what we were seeing. It would have been nice to do the hikes in a leisurely manner so we could enjoy them. The supporting crew was excellent, they remembered our names. Paz was such a caring and excellent leader, a very valuable person on the ship and she worked tirelessly to make us feel at home. I was in the kayaking team. Although the kayak master is capable and stated that we should work as a team but he did not do so. There were 8 of us, all German-speaking except for me and my partner who is Italian. 90% of the time he spoke German and I reminded him many times to translate into English for us and he kept on forgetting. For safety reasons, he should speak English especially when he gave instructions on what to avoid, etc. For the amount of money I paid ($655), I felt like I was excluded from enjoying the kayaking experience. When he handed our certificates and toasted us with champagne, everyone then settled down and all the Germans chit-chatted in German leaving us feeling excluded. My Italian partner and thought they were very rude and left. That was a low point in the cruise. I was disappointed that we saw very few wildlife, one blue whale, a few muskoxen from a distance, polar bears from a very long distance. The crew leader announced that there was a group of berluga and all of us rushed off and none saw anything. There was no further announcement as to what happened to them. It felt like a joke. When we landed at Longyearbyen, many of us signed up for a city tour at $50 each for an hour and a half of tour. We only made two stops, one at the seed vault and one at a polar bear sign to take pictures. The tour guide said she could not stop at the church because of a lack of time. I don't think it was worth the money. Moreover, many of the people on the bus only understood Chinese and there was no translation for them, they were quite angry and upset. This needs to be changed and the price is steep for such a poor tour. All in all, it was an okay tour.Show more

  Traveler•Written April 2024
  In case the triple room is unable to be occupied with two more solo travellers, will I have to pay additional?
- Poseidon ExpeditionsOperator•Written April 2024
  We can't include the post-cruise arrangements in our package. These arrangements can be purchased separately by the customer.
- Poseidon ExpeditionsOperator•Written April 2024
  We try to match passengers by their spoken language when there is an opportunity. We can't match passengers by their age because we don't ask it at the time of a booking.
- Poseidon ExpeditionsOperator•Written April 2024
  No, it's our job to fill in the cabins. If the triple suite will not be fully occupied, passengers will just have more space, not additional charges.
