AM PM

I always dreamed of being a Polar explorer, this is the closest I will ever come to being that! Thank you so much

"Truly one of the most extraordinary trips I have ever taken part in. This tops many of my previous expeditions and challenges around the globe. Svalbard is a dream destination, and the whole trip was organised and arranged perfectly. We will never forget sleeping out in the Arctic wilderness or our fantastic dog teams."
