Secret Atlas Micro Cruises to Arctic Svalbard

#expeditioncruising .

Secret Atlas’s expedition micro cruises to Svalbard for just 12 guests offer a lower-impact alternative to the increasingly large cruise ships which are now visiting the polar regions. With the launch of its 2023 sailing schedule to the Norwegian archipelago situated in the Arctic Circle, the specialist tour operator is offering travellers a range of departure dates and itineraries onboard its small ships. And, with accommodation for just a dozen guests plus crew, a much richer, more personalised experience is possible than can be enjoyed on large cruise vessels.
