Environmental Concerns

The way our cruise is planned ensures that the adverse impact it might produce on the arctic wild life and environment is minimized. The cruise organizers, represented by POSEIDON Company and Murmansk Shipping Company, guarantee that "YAMAL" nuclear-powered ice-breaker, ZODIAC mobile boats and helicopters are operated in conformity with existing environmental safety regulations.


Safety Considerations

Safety of all expedition members is of paramount importance to us. Although there is a slight amount of risk involved in the expedition, the ice- breaker is approved and certified by all relevant international certifying authorities for journeys of this kind. We offer quality cabins equipped with first-class conveniences and top standard service provided under severe ice conditions.
