The adventure
Ready to sail straight into the Arctic’s greatest hits — in reverse? Over 15 epic days, you’ll kick things off in Iceland’s legendary Land of Fire and Ice, before heading north toward the untouched wilds of Svalbard. Along the way, cruise past towering icebergs, explore fjords by Zodiac, and wander quiet tundra trails where few travellers have stepped. From whale sightings to Inuit culture and polar bear country, every day brings a new “wow” — until your journey wraps in Longyearbyen, deep in the high Arctic and a world away from the everyday.
Embark aboard the Expedition in the afternoon and depart Keflavík in the late afternoon. An arrival transfer is included. Guests should follow the joining instructions provided in their welcome information for luggage drop-off and transfer details.
Settle into life aboard the Expedition as the ship crosses the Denmark Strait toward East Greenland. Attend lectures and educational programs led by the expedition team, spend time on deck watching for seabirds and marine mammals, and prepare for the days of exploration ahead.
