Stay at Funken Lodge
With modern comfort in historical surroundings, Funken Lodge offers a unique Svalbard experience. This luxurious boutique hotel is located on a hill in Longyearbyen, with magnificent views over town and the two glaciers Larsbreen and Longyearbreen. The cosy atmosphere creates a tranquil base to relax in after intense days outdoors. All of the rooms have a contemporary design, and the friendly staff will ensure you an unforgettable stay.
Included in this package is a dinner at Coal Miners' Bar & Grill. The restaurant is located as far up in the valley as you can get, and offers a real authentic experience of the mining period on Svalbard. Here you'll find a menu full of lovely dishes, like hamburgers as well as vegan alternatives. Or how about a delicious cheese fondue after a long day outside?
There is a shuttle bus going from Funken Lodge to Coal Miners' Bar & Grill every evening at 18:00 and 18:30.
Day Cruise on the Fjords
Experience Svalbard's beautiful coastal landscape on a trip aboard MS Bard. This is a ground-breaking catamaran for day cruising, specially built to leave the smallest possible footprint in the vulnerable Arctic nature.
The trip you will join has no fixed route or destination; We sail where the conditions are most favourable, based on weather conditions, waves, and recent observations of wildlife. In other words, the goal of the trip is to capture the best experiences the day has to offer.
Between June and August, the landscape is colored in contrasting shades of green and yellow. With a little luck, wildlife appears along the way. We might see reindeer, seals, whales and – with some extra luck – polar bears. We’ll pass cultural monuments and historical sites, and the guides will ensure an unforgettable experience for all senses. Read more about the tour here.
Additional activities
Are you tempted by more adventures? The selection of summer activities is extensive, and you can easily book them directly here on our website.
For the summer of 2023, we can highly recommend a trip with our hybrid boat Kvitbjørn. Near glaciers, wildlife or settlements, it runs silently on electric propulsion. This allows both wildlife and passengers to relax and enjoy the quiet nature. At higher speeds, hybrid propulsion is used; Both the electric motor and the diesel engine are used at the same time. This allows us to get up to speed whilst reducing the diesel consumption.
