On an expedition, the plan is a guide — and when conditions turn, small-ship agility means we can adjust with confidence and follow what the polar world reveals, in real time. Weather shifts. Ice moves. Wildlife appears where you least expect it. And sometimes, the days that stay with you longest are the ones no one could have predicted.
Join our team of polar experts as they share moments from unexpected days in the high Arctic — an honest, behind-the-scenes conversation about why flexibility is so central to expeditions to Svalbard and East Greenland, and why those moments so often become the most memorable parts of a journey.
Guests heard directly from Virgil Reglioni, Robert Gilmore and Yaroslava Skorikova as they shared real stories from the field — moments when conditions forced a complete change of course, and how experience, flexibility, and small-ship decision-making turned uncertainty into opportunity.
