OTL11-22 Around Spitsbergen, In the realm of Polar Bear & Ice

by Stefan Fella

Departure in August 2022

Region: Arctic

Destinations: Svalbard

Ship: m/v Ortelius

Highlights: Arctic Fox, Arctic Tern, Blue Whale, Kittiwake, Polar Bear, Walrus, Brünnich's Guillemot, Glaucous Gull

Tank sog to the Wille Crew onboard Ortelius for this great trip. Tasting with Captain Ernesto and tour leader Claudio ending with any personell in service, everybody did his best, to make us an unforgetable experience. We were lucky to see almost all animals one can see in the arctic. After our first trip with Oceanwide to Antarctica in2018 on Plancius, we were affraid if this trip to the Arktis would fullfill our expectations ......it did!
