Angela Wyse
My husband and I were on the Rembrandt Van Rijn cruise that left Longyearbyen on June 16, 2022. We wanted to send you a quick note to tell you what an incredible experience we had. In particular, we wanted to tell you how much we appreciated our guides Jordy and Fritz. They truly made our trip into something special that will remain with us for a long time. Fritz was incredibly knowledgeable about birds and even sparked in us a new interest in birding. Jordy had a great sense of humor and we learned so much from his almost uncanny knowledge of the geography, geology, and wildlife of Svalbard. He was also generous enough with his photography skills to make a trip log for us that we will treasure. We left the ship hoping that we will be able to have another polar adventure with Jordy and Fritz sometime soon! (copied from Oceanwide Expeditions)

This was the trip of a lifetime. Our final continent. Once we arrived in Punta Arenas, we were met at the airport by Paula from Aurora who took us to hotel. My baggage was lost by airline and she gave me a coat to wear immediately. Shout out to Paula and Michael for tracking my Luggage. Once we transferred to Antarctica we were met by ship crew with drinks and smiles. The week was packed with excursions and amazing information presented by scientists in different aspects of expertise. The ship staff was friendly, personable making the trip an amazing adventure. The fly and cruise is the way to go!

It was an AMAZING journey through one of the most spectacular landscapes I have ever scene (if not the most). The boat was top of the line, the professional crew incredibly professional, knowledgeable and fun to hang out with. The service crew took well care of us during all the journey. The kayak pack is specially recommended and if you are lucky you will also a face to face hunch whale experience you will remember as your top wildlife adventure for life (copied from Trip Advisor)
We make booking your Arctic or Antarctic Cruise easy
A Polartours cruise is a perfect way to see the breathtaking polar regions, either the Arctic or the Antarctic. From the rugged beauty of the rocky coasts to the stunning sight of towering icebergs and vast fields of ice to the remarkable wildlife that has adapted to life at the very ends of the Earth, our polar cruises will bring you closer than you could have imagined. We have built an expert-curated database of the best Arctic and Antarctic cruises currently available. To help you plan your perfect adventure, our unique system lets you find the ideal cruise by available dates, cruise length, price - or even by the wildlife or visitor sites you could see. At last, you can find your dream adventure cruise in just a few simple steps. Whether you choose an arctic cruise or an Antarctic cruise, all our vessels are operated to the highest standards and were built as specialized polar ships. The crews are all experienced polar sailors, and each ship is also staffed by a range of experts to help you get the most from your adventure. As well as a series of stimulating daily lectures and talks, your guides will take you on stunning zodiac cruises among icebergs and to glacier faces. You’ll also get to step ashore on the Antarctic continent or set foot on remote islands well above the Arctic circle. Returning to your ship you will be able to relive your experiences with like-minded fellow explorers, all the while enjoying the comfort and amenities of a luxurious cruise vessel. Because a polar adventure is high on many “bucket lists” and there are only a few vessels that embark on these remarkable adventures each year, arctic and antarctic cruises can be booked out months - even years- in advance. That’s why we recommend you plan your polar adventure as far in advance as possible. If you’re ready to find out more, why not browse through our comprehensive cruise database or call one of our friendly and knowledgeable Polartours experts today to find the perfect Antarctic or Arctic cruise for you.
