    Reykjavik, Iceland
    • Reykjavik, Iceland
    Explore the world's northernmost capital. Your adventure begins in Reykjavik. Reykjavik is a laid-back city of art, culture, and history. Exploring this delightful place is well worth your time. Stroll past the boutiques and outdoor shops along Laugavegur, gaze in awe at the striking Hallgrimskirkja Church, and drop into the fascinating Reykjavik Art Museum. If you have time, consider booking a Pre-Program to discover some of Iceland's natural highlights before your cruise begins. ...

    • At Sea
    Getting ready for Greenland. As we sail into the Greenland Sea on our way to the world's largest island, it's time to relax, find your sea legs, and get acquainted with the onboard facilities. The Expedition Team will give talks about your upcoming adventure and explain the protocols of respectfully visiting wildlife habitats and Indigenous Arctic communities. In the lecture hall, you'll find out what to expect in the epic landscapes of East Greenland National Park and the stunning fjords of Scoresby Sund. If you're feeling active, head to the gym and work out with a view. On the other hand, you could try out the sauna, relax in a hot tub, indulge yourself at the onboard eateries, or just find a quiet corner to read a book with a hot drink. Love science? Then join one of the onboard Citizen Science projects, a fun and engaging way to contribute to global research. ...

    Scoresbysund, Greenland
    • Scoresbysund, Greenland
    Explore the wild east. We'll spend the next 10 days exploring Greenland's remote and pristine east coast. Extending for over 1,740 miles from north to south, this long stretch of coast is cold, isolated, and remote, even by Greenlandic standards. The south-flowing East Greenland Current brings lots of sea ice directly from the Arctic Ocean, challenging human settlement but creating a heaven for ice-dependent wildlife, including the polar bear. Local weather and ice conditions will dictate our exact route, but our plan is to sail first to Scoresby Sund, the world's largest fjord system. You'll feel a deep sense of serenity in this wild and rugged region with white and blue icebergs floating in mirror-like waters surrounded by looming mountains. If conditions permit, we'll visit Ittoqqortoormiit - the most remote inhabited community in the western hemisphere. Should the sea ice be favorable, we'll continue our journey north to the beautiful Northeast Greenland National Park - the world's largest national park. Visiting this fragile Artic wilderness is a rare privilege, as only a few visitors are permitted here each year. Apart from old trapper huts, some science research stations, and a military outpost, there are very few traces of human life in this 375,000 square mile park. Be assured that this is one of the quietest places on Earth, and you'll enjoy a feeling of great peace as we explore this beautiful wilderness. As this is an expedition cruise, the captain and Expedition Team will guide us to the most favorable spots on a day-by-day basis. Our goal will be to pack in as many shore landings, small-boat cruises, nature walks, kayaking adventures, and wildlife sightings as possible. ...

    Heading back to Iceland. After exploring the remote beauty of Greenland, we'll set our course back to Iceland. Spend the days at sea recapping your experiences with your new friends, studying nature in the Science Center, listening to a lecture or two, or just relaxing on deck. Look out for the seabirds that follow our ship and keep an eye out for whales. East Greenland's beauty is sure to have left its mark on you, so reflect on what you've seen - from the delicate ecology of the fjord systems to the ethereal elegance of the floating ice. ...
