Svalbard Wildlife Expeditions

Founder and mine worker Arne Kristoffersen moved to Longyearbyen in 1980 and founded Svalbard Wildlife Service in 1993 as part of the very beginning of tourism in Svalbard. It later became a stock-based company in 2007, changing its name to Svalbard Wildlife Expeditions AS.

All our activities happen in small groups. This way, the guide can interact with each and every guest, and the guests are actively participating as well as learning more about Spitsbergen and Svalbard as a whole. Our tours are made for using your body, creating sustainable experiences to enable many Svalbard adventures also in the foreseeable future. The goal is to have satisfied guests who also comes back on tour with us.

Natural magic in magical nature – with Svalbard Wildlife Expeditions.
