Practical information
Explore Svalbard on unforgettable Arctic boat adventures with Alice
There is a special kind of magic that only exists at 78 degrees north. It is found in the stillness of Isfjorden and the towering cliffs are home for thousands of Arctic seabirds like puffins.
Our Svalbard sea safaris offer a “front-row” seat to nature’s greatest theater on our boat called Alice. The boat, Alice, has a heated cabin and will take you on a journey cruising smoothly past calving glaciers or wildlife hotspots.
