When to travel
Svalbard's polar night lasts from November until mid-February, when the archipelago lies in deep darkness, and our tours are temporarily paused. During this period, the snow cover isn’t sufficient for snowmobile travel, and the lack of daylight makes exploring challenging.
Our winter tours start in mid-February, as the magical blåtiden emerges and daylight returns. From then until the first week of May, we offer 1-day tours to Barentsburg, Grumant & Colesbay, and Tempelfjorden. For those seeking extended adventures, we offer the 3-Day Boundless Arctic Tour, perfect for exploring the western part of the archipelago and the Greenland Sea.
If you’re eager to visit the remote settlement of Pyramiden, tours begin no earlier than mid-March, once the snow and ice have fully stabilized. For this destination, we recommend planning ahead. Our 3-Day Arctic Time Machine Tour ensures you have enough time to fully explore Pyramiden without feeling rushed, as the journey from Longyearbyen takes about 5–6 hours by snowmobile.
April is the perfect time to join our 7-Day Next to the North Pole tour, a comprehensive package that takes you to the most iconic spots on the archipelago, ensuring you experience Svalbard to its fullest.
Please note that we stop running tours by the second week of May and strongly advise against visiting during this time. The weather is highly unpredictable, and you may end up seeing very little as the snow melts and the landscape transitions to summer.

Summer in Svalbard begins in early June, bringing warmer temperatures and the endless daylight of the polar day. The fjords come alive as RIB boats start navigating the waters, snow begins to melt, and small Arctic flowers bloom along the mountainsides, marking the arrival of summer.
From June to late August, we offer the 1-Day Wildlife Safari, featuring a flexible "Catch of the Day" program that selects the best routes for wildlife and glacier views based on seasonal conditions. Our 1-Day Barentsburg and 2-Day Barentsburg Expedition Tours run from early June to September, giving you the opportunity to explore this Russian settlement and enjoy husky dog-sled rides. For those who love trekking, we offer a 3-Day Hiking Tour with cozy cabin stays, perfect for immersing yourself in Svalbard's wilderness.
Starting from mid-June, when the ice in Pyramiden Bay melts, until late September, you can join our 5-Day Hunt for Arctic Adventure, as well as our 1-Day Pyramiden and 2-Day Pyramiden Escape Tours, to discover the fascinating history and beauty of this abandoned settlement.
Please note that we pause our tours after the first week of October. The weather is highly unpredictable, and you may end up seeing very little as temperatures drop, the polar night gradually returns, and the landscape transitions to winter.
