Svalbardway exists because planning an Arctic trip is harder than it sounds. Nobody tells you some important information that could help you plan your trip to the hour. We built this agency for you to find: all possible trip according to your needs, any time of the year according to temperature and light hours, any activity you’d like to experience. When something can't be guaranteed (e.g wildlife, aurora, weather) we will be clear about it and let you know regarding this in advance.
About
Built for explorers, not for regular tourism.
Most agencies would offer you the usual visit to Svalbard. We'd rather tailor the plan to your individual needs and let the Arctic take it from there.
The team
The people behind Svalbardway
Christian Jørgensen
Founder & CEO
Grew up on the coast of northern Norway and has spent the last years guiding and outfitting trips across the Arctic, from polar-night snowmobile routes to summer ship expeditions along the pack ice.
Founded Svalbardway to replace the brochure runaround with one plan: real Arctic experience and an itinerary adjusted to your needs rather than a fixed catalogue.
Ingrid Solberg
Backoffice
Keeps Svalbardway running behind the scenes: the coordination and follow-through that hold everything together day to day.
Whatever needs to happen for things to run smoothly, she’s the one quietly making sure it does.
Henrik Dahl
Marketing & Customer Support
Looks after travelers of Svalbardway, and is the one who picks up your questions, from a first enquiry to the small details before you travel.
His aim is simple: clear answers and information, and no doubts left before any trip.
Maren Eriksen
Technical Services
Looks after everything technical at Svalbardway: the systems, website and setups.
When something needs building, fixing or keeping online behind the scenes, that’s her.
