“What travel destination is more evocative of exploration & adventure than the Arctic?”

Best Time for Arctic Travel

The best time to travel to the Arctic is from June to September. You can visit the Arctic any time of the year, but there are many seasonal nuances to take into consideration depending on your travel goals and mode of transportation. When planning an Arctic vacation consider the Midnight Sun around the solstice, aurora borealis cruises in the late season, endemic wildlife at all times of the year. Arctic expedition ships primarily operate May through September. Canada’s prime polar bear viewing land-based tours are in the late fall. If you’re seeking to ski or view the Northern Lights, look for a wintertime Arctic trip.
