Weather in Svalbard can be highly unpredictable and can change rapidly, with potential for strong winds, snowstorms, dense fog, crevasses, or insufficient snow and ice. This may necessitate changes to the planned route, which could prevent us from reaching the intended destination. We may also need to alter the type of transportation or accommodation outlined in the itinerary. While we will do everything possible to provide a memorable Arctic experience, it's important to understand that these unique conditions are a natural part of this destination.
