Nothing beats the tingling sensation of being at one with nature in the Arctic under a Polar Night sky. Savour an unmissable adventure, dog sledding across frozen terrain under starry skies, an aurora of dancing lights or glittering moonlight. Duration: Approximately 4 hours. Price from £133pp.
Ice-caving at the Lars Glacier
Under the glaciers on Svalbard, you’ll fi nd a beautiful frozen world of ice. Melting water channels freeze to crystal paths in the winter, but such pristine exquisiteness can only exist in remote environments.
