Ice floating takes place during the cruise in small groups. You can get all the needed instructions for ice floating from our guides during the guided tour that is included in the cruise.

Lunch in legendary restaurant of Icebreaker Sampo includes in the price.

Join a guided tour with an onboard guide around the vessel. Walk from the captain's bridge to the control room, then enjoy a welcome drink and diploma showing you have taken this unique cruise.
