BIG ACE - Bears, Ice, Glaciers, Arctic Climate Expedition 2025
High Arctic Odyssey, ft. Dr Sylvia Earle
We are excited to invite you aboard the “BIG ACE – the Bears, Ice, Glaciers, Arctic Climate Expedition 2025”, available exclusively through Virtuoso.
Plus, take advantage of our exclusive Virtuoso benefit. Make any new booking and your client will receive a US$250 Onboard Credit per person*.
In partnership with Dr. Sylvia Earle and Ocean Geographic, the epic project honours Dr Earle’s lifelong advocacy for the world’s oceans by inviting changemaker passengers to use their own voice and talents to safeguard the planet for future generations.
BIG ACE seeks to lobby for the protection of the Arctic, foster a collective appreciation of our planet’s fragility and mitigate the impact of climate change through the power of the arts. The Arctic, where warming occurs at a rate four to five times greater than the global average, is undergoing significant degradation. The 13-day BIG ACE High Arctic Odyssey begins on 23 June 2025, with 2 nights in Oslo and 1 night in Longyearbyen. Participants will then board Aurora Expeditions’ small ship, Sylvia Earle, to embark on an expedition to Svalbard, from 26 June – 5 July, 2025.
