Who we are
Pioneers of ship-based expeditions, inventors of Basecamp Antarctica, and the first company to take travelers to the remote Arctic island of Spitsbergen. With our own fleet of ice-strengthened vessels, we get you deep into the heart of this otherworldly environment so it can get deep into yours.
An Expedition Apart
It is our goal to take you off the ship and into the action as often as possible. Our sea routes are short and direct, allowing for maximum shore time, and our activities are designed to accommodate a wide range of experience and fitness levels.



Explore Another World at the Edge of Our Own
We strive for close- contact, twice-daily outings on land and at sea (and sometimes below it) in one of Earth’s most surreal environment s. Our expert crew and nimble ships allow for safe passage, speedy disembarkations, and supremely flexible itineraries.
It is our duty and pleasure to protect the environment we love so well. We are a responsible vessel operator and member of AECO and IAATO, organizations that promote environmentally friendly travel to the Arctic and Antarctic. Our ships comply with all the latest safety standards.
