Demographics
The Svalbard expedition cruises work brilliantly for solo travelers, mixing private downtime with engaging group activities. The M/V Sea Spirit gives you your own roomy suite to retreat to after busy days out exploring. You'll spend your days doing detailed shore visits - maybe walking through old Thule settlements or getting up close to photograph walrus colonies. The dining setup naturally brings people together, and everyone tends to gather on the observation decks when polar bears appear on ice floes. Our solo guests often tell us how well the expedition teams include everyone during wildlife spotting and shore excursions.
Our younger travelers go for the more active Arctic trips that blend real wildlife encounters with hands-on exploration. They'll zip around in zodiacs right up to glacier faces, and there's optional kayaking weaving between icebergs. Landing at Ny Ålesund, you can send mail from the planet's northernmost post office and hike up to see little auks nesting in the cliffs. The midnight sun in summer means endless chances for photos and spotting marine life. The social side really makes these trips - having drinks while whale watching, playing cards on sea days and joining casual photo sessions with the expedition crew.
Our senior travelers love how these Arctic expeditions balance real exploration with thoughtful comfort. The ships are stable, with good viewing areas and elevators connecting all decks. You can choose activities that match your pace - gentle flower photography walks or longer hikes if you prefer. There's plenty of history too, with visits to old whaling stations and mining towns. The expedition team gives great talks about Arctic exploration and wildlife, which our older guests find fascinating. They particularly appreciate taking time to properly watch polar bears hunting or see huge chunks of glacier crash into the sea.
