Silver Sea Cruise from Tromso to Longyearbyen

Any feedback on this cruise taken by others?

Yes, we did Svalbard in 2011 (LYB to Tromso). It's a neat part of the world to visit. Lots of history that we didn't know about. Cool wildlife, but less dense than in Antarctica, so the sightings are not as often or as spectacular. Definitely worth the trip IMO.

Definitely recommend.  We have done portions of this twice.  Once just Svalbard, and once Svalbard and Greenland.  Obviously we liked it enough to repeat.  We saw polar bears both times, mostly not close up, but once really close.
