What to wear in the Arctic

It's important that you have everything you need before you set off for the Arctic. Read our advice on what to pack in order to be fully prepared for your adventure.
Visas and travel documentation don't need to be a headache, but they certainly can be if you forget about them. Clarifying what's needed will only take a few minutes, but is one of the most important steps to take after booking your trip.
Your passport should be valid for the duration of your trip and for another 6 months beyond your return.
Your nationality and the countries you are travelling through on route to the Arctic will influence whether you need to apply for a visa or not. Unless you are travelling through Russia, full visas are generally not required (although Canada does require an eTA).
We highly recommend you contact us or visit CIBT Visas to check what you need for your trip.
