For optimal Northern Lights viewing book an Arctic cruise between late August and September especially in Northeast Greenland and Spitsbergen.

A TourRadar traveler noted: "The captain would often adjust course when wildlife was spotted giving us incredible views of polar bears hunting on ice floes and pods of whales breaching nearby."
What unique cultural experiences are included in luxury Arctic tours?
