\u201cWe\u2019re excited to launch the new Arctic cruising season and share the rugged majesty of the polar north with adventurers and cold enthusiasts,\u201d says Will Bennett, Gap Adventures\u2019 director of operations aboard the M\/S Expedition<\/i>. \u201cThe Arctic is one of the most culturally rich and historically fascinating regions of the world, with a magnificent bounty of wildlife and awe-inspiring natural wonder.\u201d<\/p>\n

Travellers who book Category-2 to Category-5 cabins receive a 25 per cent discount. Category-1 bookings receive a 15 per cent discount. The early booking bonus is valid until April 30.<\/p>\n

\u201cVery few people have the opportunity to witness the breathtaking beauty of Arctic region,\u201d adds Bennett. \u201cEchoing our commitment to leading with service, we\u2019re pleased to offer travellers even more value with the seat sale, making the glacial trips more accessible and affordable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had the most fabulous experience and felt blessed on this adventure,\u201d says Christine Williams, who was on the Realm of the Polar Bear tour. \u201cBefore even leaving the harbour, we were visited by a pod of beluga whales. We also encountered a polar bear that swam around our ship, saw two bears confronting one another on an ice floe, and came across loving mothers and their cubs. We even got up close to walruses, saw frisky arctic foxes, and snuck up on reindeer. It was a full on experience!\u201d<\/p>\n

100% Bear-antee \u2013 an Industry First<\/b>
Gap Adventures has such confidence in its Expedition Team\u2019s ability to locate polar bears that the company now guarantees at least one of our planet\u2019s largest land predators will be spotted during its Arctic adventures.<\/p>\n

In the unlikely event that Gap Adventures\u2019 team is unable to locate a polar bear, every passenger onboard will receive a credit for the value they spent on their cruise to use towards a future Arctic cruise aboard the M\/S Expedition<\/i>.<\/p>\n
