I visited Spitsbergen as part of a cruise from the UK. It was on P&O’s Aurora. I really enjoyed my visit and treasure the memories. I didn’t see any polar bears but I put my hand in the Barent’s Sea. I visited the world’s most northern post office there and bought a few souvenirs. A wonderful place.

I have been twice. First in total darkness which set the “ must come back in the summer” longing. Which I did.
My heart swells when I think of the grandeur, it’s unique location and the utter privilege to have been to this jewel on our planet. Perhaps another one will happen.
I think the Seed Vault is worthy of a mention.

I have been twice but only on cruise ships from UK. The first time we went north to Magdalenafiord and further out into the pack ice . That was seeing the nearest that we could to what early explorers found . We were very privileged to do this, and will not be going again so really value these memories more and more.
