Longyearbyen



You will head along Isfjord towards the abandoned Soviet ghost town of Pyramiden. Along the way, you'll come very close to the famous Nordenskiöld Glacier and take a short walk along the Arctic bay of Skans. In Pyramiden itself, you will be treated to an extended guided tour and have lunch in a Soviet-style setting. The tour starts at 9 AM; we will pick you up from your hotel and head to the port, where we'll embark on an open boat journey to Pyramiden. You'll return to Longyearbyen in the evening, around 6-7 PM.
