Spitsbergen experience
In Spitsbergen since 1995. We are certinaly one of the only boat in which all passengers have been able to observe the polar bear.
Conviviality
12 guests, gathered on a warm and confortable boat … for “confidential” cruises

Few Reviews
Discovered first on a ski tour for Pascal in 2018 with friends from Savoie and Isère, then Spitsbergen for both in August 2019 on the occasion of our 70th birthday.
Each time a warm and professional welcome with a comfortable life on board. Pampered by the 4 members of the crew always ready to adapt to our needs, it was an experience rich in discoveries and observations of flora and fauna.
Thanks to Bernard, Anne, Yann and Camille

Lyngen Alps in 2018 & Spitsbergen in August 2019
We are a group of friends who love unusual trips away from the beaten track.
We were delighted with the service offered by the Escales team
polar: warm welcome, observation of animals and flora
far from the big boats, feeling of being alone in the world ...
What happiness!

Voyage émotion en Août 2019, gravé à tout jamais
dans nos mémoires à bord d'un bateau ayant une âme, encadré par un
équipage aussi altruiste que professionnel, toujours à l'affût
d'observations animales pour notre plus plus grand plaisir.
Merci Anne. Merci Bernard
