Hello,
We are thinking of going to Svalbard in 2022. We have a lot of questions as it is such a unique and strange place for us.
First of all,... we look for picturesque landscapes, polar bears, nordic lights, etc. Is June a suitable time to go?
We have seen some companies organizing mobile snow expeditions (7-8 days). It is advisable? Or it's better to stay in Longyearbyen as a base camp and just go on day trips?
Thanks

You will not see the aurora in June - the sun doesn't set then.
It is almost certainly best to book a tour to Svalbard. It is not a place to mess with, polar bears can and do kill tourists on occasion.

Hi, been to Svalbard twice, it depends on what is your main interest, if you want to see more of pack ice and polar bears go earlier on a ship which has a high ice rating, going around august, you may be able to circumnavigate Svalbard. It depends on what interests you

I made a stupid question... no northern lights in summer. Thanks กกก
