From Reykjavik, embark on a voyage to Svalbard, scanning for whales, and spotting majestic polar bears and wallowing walrus on pack ice. East Greenland dazzles with its iridescent icebergs and the opportunity for deep exploration in Scoresbysund – the world’s largest fjord system. Witness spectacularly colourful patterns in the sandstone rocks, visit remarkable Palaeolithic sites, and have the chance to encounter musk oxen and arctic hare.
