“The land looks like a fairytale.”
Roald Amundsen
The polar regions are among the most stunning parts of our earth. Once you have seen the icebergs and the glaciers, you will be hooked. Bitten by the polar bug, you will be drawn again and again to these latitudes. The unique beauty of the landscape, the different light and landscape moods, and the rich wildlife are unforgettable. The thundering crash of the glaciers as well as the tingling of the cold polar air are experiences that should not be missed.
For centuries, ships set out to explore the Arctic and Antarctica. The 19th and 20th centuries were the golden age of Arctic and Antarctic exploration. It was a time when, in these lands of fairy tales, that tragedies and epics were written.
