Iceland & Eastern Greenland
Sail from Iceland’s wildest corners to Greenland’s remote east coast on this spectacular expedition cruise.
Duration: 13 days
Starts: Reykjavik, Iceland
Ends: Reykjavik, Iceland
Language: English speaking voyage
Experience the wild beauty of Iceland’s Westfjords region before sailing across the Denmark Strait to Greenland’s rugged east coast. Here you’ll explore Scoresbysund’s vast fjord networks, gliding through pristine icy waters set against a backdrop of imposing basalt mountain ranges. All the while searching for Arctic hares, muskoxen and if you’re very lucky, polar bears. The wind-sheltered fjords offer the perfect refuge for a plethora of wildlife, including vast populations of seabirds. Returning via the secluded beauty of east Iceland, you’ll visit charming fishing villages, explore dramatic ice-carved landscapes and experience the aftermath of a relatively recent volcanic eruption. Conclude your cruise in Reykjavik, the perfect place to reflect upon this unforgettable voyage.
