When to Go
- BEST TIMES: Boat travel is only possible May-August when the pack ice melts enough for navigation.
- ALSO CONSIDER: Overland trips like Arctic Explorer run in winter only, December-February.
Daylight can last up to 24 hours in the Arctic summer, illuminating translucent icebergs and prowling polar bears on an Arctic vacation. We have curated a collection of ice-worthy ships to explore the top of the world including Iceland, Greenland, Spitsbergen, and all the way to the North Pole on one of GeoEx’s luxury Arctic cruise trips and tours.
