Our Story
Our roots trace back to 1989, when Spitsbergen Travel was established by the coal mining company Store Norske to manage travel for the miners. Over the decades, we’ve evolved alongside Svalbard itself, from miners' transport to modern-day tourism, always with the same goal: to help people experience the magic of life in the High Arctic.
