Explore the most remote limits of our planet with our customized polar cruising expeditions and private guided shore excursions. Near the North Pole, follow a knowledgeable guide on a private Norwegian snowshoeing expedition for sightings of polar bears, walrus, reindeers, and beluga whales. In the Antarctic, gaze out onto an endless expanse of snow and ice, feel the exultant spray from a female humpback as she and her calf rise to the surface beside your expedition ship, or head ashore to a rocky beach and allow fearless emperor penguins to peck at your boot laces.
