Classic Svalbard with David Farmer

Overall the Svalbard photo safari was excellent! We were very impressed with the planning, flexibility in adjusting to ice conditions and especially with the outstanding leadership and skill of our guides Roy and Frede for our Svalbard photography tour. The opportunities for wildlife photography were superb and I could not possibly pass on suggestions for any improvement in leadership, management and viewing approach. This was as good as it gets and we are grateful for the efforts of all involved. In addition, we are greatly appreciative of the friendly and effective crew of the ORIGO who were always ready to help. A valuable aspect was the Captain’s ready willingness, in fact encouragement, to let us stay up on the bridge at all hours and watch the magnificent scenery and wildlife slip past as we sailed through this remote environment. Our thanks go to all the staff!
