Creator's Key Takeaways

Nothing can explain the feeling that you have when you see your first, second, third, or fifth polar bear for the expedition.

It's an incredible incredible feeling.

These two cubs got up from the ice flow where they were on and followed their mother and came all the way to the ship.

I have never seen bigger icebergs anywhere else in the world.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use a ship with ice class to access polar bear habitats.
Be patient and let bears approach the ship naturally.
