EXPEDITION PLANNING

Leading an expedition can be the easy part if the planning has been done properly. Although flexibility is an essential ingredient in all expeditions, it does not negate the importance of planning all aspects of the expedition. Arctic Kingdom has a very thorough and deliberate expedition planning process. We try to minimize costs through finding and selecting the most economical options for freight and air transfers.

We can help or take sole responsibility for all flight planning, accommodations & transfers, ground transportation, equipment selection, camp management, fuel management, guide selection, menus & food preparation, waste management, specialized clothing and thorough participant briefings.

We will define contingency plans to maximize and make the most of inevitable downtime and different weather or other circumstances that may require adapting the original plan. We look after permitting and any visa or other government requirements and obtaining local permissions.

In short, we ensure that every aspect of the expedition has been well thought out so nothing is overlooked. Smooth operations are influenced almost entirely by the quality and thoroughness of the planning and we pride ourselves on having expedition planning down to a science.
