Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators document a fourteen day expedition aboard a luxury icebreaker traveling from the Svalbard Archipelago to the North Pole. The journey begins with a flight to Longyearbyen, followed by a detailed tour of the ship's amenities, including high end suites, a spa with a snow room, and various dining options. As the vessel navigates through frozen oceans, the creators experience the physical sensations of hitting ice and enduring high winds.
