The Archipelago Outpost
This historical radio station has been transformed into a luxurious hotel with a gourmet kitchen, far into the arctic wilderness. This is the untouched home to walrus, fox, reindeer and polar bears as well as some of the most beautiful natural glaciers in the world. This is the perfect summer Arctic adventure!

Arrive into Longyearbyen and check into your central hotel. Explore the town at leisure – why not head to the Museum or one of the historical mines? Evening at leisure.
Day 2
RIB boat adventure
Meet your guides this morning for a briefing of your trip to the incredible Isfjord Radio. When ready, depart by RIB boat through the fjords and along the coastline past the Bird cliffs to Isfjord. Arrive, check in and enjoy a delicious dinner in the restaurant.
Day 3
Dining alfresco on a glacier!
Head out with your guide today to the beautiful Esmark Glacier for an alfresco lunch. On the way look for seals, sea birds, puffins, beluga whales and of course polar bears!

Day 4
Head home or onto the next adventure....
After breakfast check out and make your way back to Longyearbyen but not before stopping to explore the Russian settlement of Barentsburg! After lunch in the town you will return to Longyearbyen for your final night.
