How much is a trip to the North Pole?

Quark Expeditions (Quark Expeditions) will send you from Murmansk to the North Pole on the nuclear powered Russian ice breaker 50 Years of Victory for $22,900 to $31,900 per person. 

You'll fly from Helsinki to Murmansk (I think this is included in the price) and then spend spend about 14 days traveling to and from the pole.  Shore landings are planned in Franz Josef Land and at the pole.  A helicopter is available to take you sight seeing. When the trip is over you're flown back to Helsinki.

All the cabins on the 117 meter 50 Years have outside views and private baths.  Her crew and staff of 140 can handle 128 guests  Some Of the cabins are suites with sitting rooms.  The ship has a dining room, a professional bartender, indoor pool, gym and sauna, a library and store, and other amenities.
