    • Nuuk, Greenland
    Welcome to the capital of Greenland. Today begins with a flight from Reykjavik to Nuuk, Greenland's colorful capital. It has a population of 18,000 and features a striking mix of old and new buildings. If time allows, we'll explore this fascinating city, comparing the old buildings-such as Hans Egede House and Nuuk Cathedral-with the ultra-modern architecture of the Parliament of Greenland building. Your ship awaits you in Nuuk Harbour. After collecting your complimentary expedition jacket, it's time to check out your cabin, meet the Expedition Team, and explore the ship as we set sail on this epic voyage through the Northwest Passage. ...

    • Jakobshavn, Greenland
    Discover the magical beauty of West Greenland. The first chapter of our journey encompasses the majestic coast of West Greenland. Over the next three days, you'll experience some of the most iconic sites in all of Greenland. Our objectives include: Evighedsfjord. As we head north, we plan to offer an exploration day in the magical and pristine Evighedsfjord near Maniitsoq. Each day, we'll determine which adventures we can take part in. The "Fjord of Eternity" is fed by an ice cap that calves huge icebergs into its 2,300-foot-deep waters. It's surrounded by mist-cloaked mountains with beautiful white ridges, punctuated by crystal blue ice caves. Sisimiut: Sisimiut is Greenland's second city and is situated in a spectacular location just above the Arctic Circle. This area has history spanning more than 4,500 years, and old traditions are alive and well. Learn more about ancient Saqqaq artifacts in the local museum, or stretch your legs on a hike. If you're looking for a special souvenir, pick up a scarf, hat, or mittens made of qiviut, the inner wool of the musk ox that's said to be ten times warmer than sheep's wool. Ilulissat: Nestled at the edge of the magnificent Ilulissat Icefjord, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is Ilulissat. Here you'll find an ever-changing gallery of passing icebergs set against a backdrop of colorful houses. In town you can visit a multitude of shops selling local crafts, and on the outskirts walking trails take you along the epic icefjord. ...

    • Cruising Bellot Strait, Canada
    Navigate the dividing line between east and west. The "Rubicon" of the Canadian Arctic, dividing east from west, is the infamous Bellot Strait. This narrow body of water separates the northernmost part of mainland North America from Somerset Island, one of the largest islands in the Canadian Arctic archipelago. Bellot Strait is approximately 15 nautical miles long and just over half a mile wide at its narrowest point. Our ability to navigate this passage will be determined by ice and weather conditions. ...

    Science and wildlife watching at sea. Join your Expedition Team for insightful lectures as we journey through the Beaufort Sea and Bering Strait. As we head into the Beaufort Sea, we must be aware that seasonal sea ice fluctuations can vary. If the sea ice levels are greater than the seasonal average, this is likely to affect the speed at which we are able to sail through. This is the nature of expedition cruises-expect the unexpected! The highlights of this transit include: Beaufort Sea, Bering Strait, International Date Line, Wildlife watching. ...

    Learn about Alaska's "golden" past. Prospectors first came to Nome in 1898, and people still hunt for gold here today.

You'll be in good company as you explore the town. Wyatt Earp, the famous sheriff, opened a saloon here. Nome was also the end point of three of Roald Amundsen's great polar expeditions.
