The Best of Both Worlds: Secret Atlas Launches New Svalbard & Greenland Expedition Micro Cruise for Summer 2027

Secret Atlas

London, March 2026 – Secret Atlas, pioneers of small-group polar exploration, has announced a new Svalbard and Greenland Summer Expedition Micro Cruise for 2027, combining both incredible destinations into one trip. 

This two-week adventure will navigate two of the Arctic's most coveted destinations in one journey aboard the ice-breaker expedition ship, MV Freya, offering a small group of just 12 guests a transformative experience.

Setting sail in August 2027 from Svalbard's icy fjords to Greenland's towering icebergs and mountain landscapes, guests can experience the magic of 24-hour daylight in one of the wildest, least-visited places on Earth. Venturing deep into the polar wilderness and through the Fram Strait, there's the chance, with a bit of luck, to spot polar bears on ice and blue whales and humpbacks as they migrate through these deep waters

Michele D'Agostino, Co-Founder of Secret Atlas said, "We designed this combined expedition for explorers who want a truly immersive Arctic experience with the benefits of travelling in a small and intimate group. By connecting Svalbard and East Greenland, we're offering a unique opportunity to explore both destinations in a single journey and navigate remote shorelines and narrow fjords that larger vessels simply cannot reach.”

The new Secret Atlas Expedition Micro Cruise for 2027 includes:

Svalbard and Greenland Summer Micro Cruise – from £18,995 per person

Setting sail under the midnight sun, this 14-day immersive journey takes in the best of both worlds on this combined Svalbard and Greenland summer expedition. Departing on 8th August 2027, this is when wildlife is at its most abundant and visible from Arctic foxes to whales, migratory birds, and polar bears. Explore the monumental landscapes of Scoresbysund, the world's largest fjord system, and go beyond the 80° North in search of pack ice, crossing the Fram Strait and the Denmark Strait.

Price includes onboard accommodation, full-board meals and beverages, Starlink Wi-Fi, exploratory activities, rubber sole boots for shore landings, insulation suits and local transfers. International flights not included. To book or for more details, visit Svalbard and East Greenland Summer Micro Cruise | only 12 Guests.
