In the polar regions, the power of the sun can be felt more intensely than anywhere else in the world. She provides constant light in the summer and does not rise above the horizon in the winter, leaving the land soaked in mystical darkness. Her warmth is a gentle glow, her rays colour the sky in pinks, purples and golds, and sometimes she appears so close that you feel like you could touch her. Words cannot accurately describe the sheer magnificence of Svalbard. As the most readily accessible region of the polar north, the scenery and sheer beauty is the epitome of our Arctic dreams.
There's something immensely special about experiencing a country's unique landscapes through the window of a moving train.

We have recently partnered with Soho Hotels in Spain to offer our travellers a choice of centrally located boutique hotels in Andalucia.

Choose from a city break in Seville, Malaga, Ronda or Jerez de la Frontera, combine as part of a longer stay or build into a carefully-planned tour of southern Spain. Learn more in our latest blog.

What ever the reason may be, what better time to throw yourself into dark tourism than Halloween? Here are a variety of destinations around the world where you can do just that.
