(A superior seaman uses his superior judgement to keep out of situations that require his superior skills) love this !!

I’ve watched this 4 times now. Never gets old!

A very pricey holiday for rich people..

What a wonderful trip! Despite the awkward dance party :-)

This needs a Netflix documentary, with Engineers and captain interviewed.

9:58 "Yamal can maintain a speed of 3 knots through ice 8 feet thick, so ice of a lesser thickness was of little consequence to her progress." Amazing! 😲

I wanted to do this trip so badly, having sailed around the Arctic several times to see a solar eclipse, northern lights and exploring Spitsbergen, reaching a point beyond 80 deg latitude.  However these cruises are very expensive, the sailing alone costing £20,000 per person in 2016.  By the time you factor in helicopter rides, trips to land at various islands, flights out and back etc etc. I just couldn’t do it.  I was looking at Hurtigruten  voyages, but they’d all be seriously expensive.  I won’t give up hope though!  Maybe one day …… I thoroughly enjoyed the video and the narration was excellent.  Many thanks for making and showing such a brilliant programme!

[Polar bears] "Their sense of small is so acute that they can detect the scent of a seal below the ice 1 km away." 13:55

The video was simply wonderful and the narration was exceptionally good! Thank you so much.

Spectacular ship.  I am amazed at it capabilities and rather in awe of the the engineers and architects that designed her.

This is honestly the best hour-and-a-half commercial I have ever watched. I'm going to watch it again.

Well, the usual Fleming Yachts quality, a great experience, I love all your videos, thank you.

I've just started my career as a ship navigator after 6 years in the Naval Academy in Bulgaria, and this was one of the most incredible videos I've ever seen in my life! Thank you for all the amazing narration and facts about the life at sea in such conditons, and of the animals living there.

It was amazing that you reached 90N after all the stops, the thickness of the ice was really impressive and watching it break and open a way was almost hypnotic. I loved that people were allowed to take a dip in the Arctic, what a friendly atmosphere on board too. Seeing the polar bears in their natural home is something else. Neptune made the Yamal work to reach the top but helped in the end. So glad I was suggested this awesome vlog :>

Thank you for letting me experience what I never could otherwise. Truly amazing. Great narration and inspired choices of music.

The best of the best work and film making;  right on my computer at home;  EXCELLENT!  FLEMING YACHTS.

An epic journey to the North Pole via a nuclear powered ice cutter; and it's a guest ship, too!  I can't believe National Geographic didn't scoop you up years ago, Mr. Fleming!  Beautifully filmed, entertaining and educational; a visually virtual experience!

Mr. Fleming, you are truly doing the most wonderful documentation work. Thank you!

Would love to go on a trip like this but the cost is just too prohibitive. Watching a video like this is the closest many of us will ever get to actually being there.

The remarks regarding leaving the port/ berth is an exciting event what lies ahead is truly correct. I was a seafear and sailed on ocean going vessels for about 15 years. During the time, I remember when ever there was arrival/ departure of ship, I would go on deck and watch her as being seeing for the first time. The charm and enjoyment of watching the event is truly remarkable. Having left the sea service for more than a decade, I often longed to see the event, but alas, I am far away from the sea. Thanks for such a good narration. Regards
