Epic High Arctic | 13 days
This voyage from Resolute to Kangerlussuaq takes you to the top of the world. Travelling well beyond the Arctic Circle and into the far North, we explore western Greenland, eastern Baffin Island and the route to the North Pole. This expedition features some of the most breathtaking scenery in the Arctic – towering ice capped mountains, fjords, and glaciers. Weather and wildlife encounters are less predictable than elsewhere in the North, but sightings of polar bear, walrus and bowhead whale are not unusual.

Clients’ comments
“As Marion promised, I attach a copy of the log from our recent trip to Franz Josef Land. The photos in the log illustrate the quality of the polar bear encounters! Dense sea ice is definitely the place to see bears at close range, and we couldn’t have got into the middle of it without an icebreaker. In one twenty-four hour period we had fourteen bear encounters. Often with two in view at the same time. (That 14 count involved some repeat visits by the same bear, who seemed fascinated by the ship).”
