About Wildlife Photo Safari from Longyearbyen in Svalbard.
Everything was very goot organized and on time. We only spotted two animals: the reindeer and the snow-chick, but it was nice.

About 'King of the Arctic' Snowmobile Safari from Longyearbyen in Svalbard.
We originally booked this trip for the second day of our holiday. On the morning we suited up, did the briefing, and headed out on the snowmobiles - but sadly the snow melt meant we couldn’t get out of the first valley. Our guide tried really hard to find a route but sadly it just wasn’t meant to be. After this we weren’t optimistic but the Better Moments team were brilliant and managed to reschedule a different (slightly shorter trip) a few days later. They also refunded the price difference. The experience was amazing - highly recommend and we will be back to Svalbard to try the full experience - perhaps just a little earlier in the year to make sure we have enough snow to do it!
