Embark on the breathtaking Arctic Saga: Exploring Spitsbergen via the Faroes & Jan Mayen, a 14-day expedition journey that takes you into the heart of the Arctic’s most remote and majestic realms. Begin your adventure from Aberdeen, Scotland, before traversing the North Atlantic into the Faroe Islands, the mysterious volcanic landscapes of Jan Mayen, and the dramatic fjords of Spitsbergen. Witness towering glaciers, sea stacks, and coastal cliffs carpeted with seabirds, reindeer, seals, and whales—all under the surreal glow of the midnight sun. Learn more about Jan Mayen, a remote Norwegian volcanic island with no permanent population and glacier-capped peaks.
