Under the magnificent polar sky, halfway between the North Pole and mainland Norway, lies the island kingdom of Svalbard. The nature is powerful and unique, with a rich animal life adjusted the arctic conditions. The Arctic light is fascinating and unforgettable, whether it is midnight sun or polar night.

On Svalbard you can experience a new universe in the ice caves under the glaciers, you can strengthen employees' team spirit with a visit to a coal mine, you can enjoy the spectacular landscape by taking a trip led by dog-teams or snowmobile or just visit our Russian and Ukranian neighbours in Barentsburg. A tent-tour deep in the polar night will definitely be an adventure to write home about, or just relax and enjoy a bit of wine tasting in the world's northernmost wine cellar.

Svalbard takes good care of its guests. Accomodation varies from charming guesthouses via "hunters' cabins" to distinctive international-standard hotels. At mealtimes, you can choose from a range of highly regarded eating places, and an exciting Arctic menu.
