Why book with us?
Your advantages when booking with Polartours
In each of our itineraries, there is passion, attention to detail, and extensive knowledge of the regions. We stand for authentic journeys that introduce you to the incomparable nature of our polar regions and immerse you in this unforgettable adventure.
1. Polar Specialists
Unlike many other travel agents who sell trips to Antarctica or the Arctic, we are a team of true polar experts, each with extensive knowledge of the regions. We would love to share our wealth of knowledge with you, in order to enhance your experience of these incomparable destinations.
2. Unbiased Recommendations
As independent agents, we don't have any ties to specific operators. With over 30 vessels in Antarctica and the Arctic, every ship has its own philosophy, and we won't shy away from giving you clear recommendations, based on your interests, fitness level, budget, or age. A good place to start planning your trip is by scheduling a free video consultation with us.
3. Sustainable Tourism
Discovering the world should have a positive impact. As Polartours, we are certified and awarded for our engagement in sustainable tourism. Your trips will always meet specific requirements to create the best sustainable impact on the ground while giving you the time of your life. Traveling with Polartours means:
- Your trip is 100% CO2 compensated
- Your trip supports local businesses
- Your trip is sustainably built
- Your trip respects human rights
4. Financial Protection
Unlike when booking with other agencies—actually, even when booking with other operators directly!—our bookings are fully protected. As a German operator, we must adhere to the strictest policies and all our customer bookings are fully protected against insolvency.
6. Best Price Guarantee
Our prices are amongst the best you'll find, and booking through Polartours means you'll never pay more than if you booked with the operator directly. In fact, should you find the same trip for a better price anywhere, then please let us know—we will gladly match it. We also have excellent rates for optional activities during your expedition cruise, such as kayaking, camping, and even helicopter tours! Click here to find all our cruises.
