Zarpe desde Reikiavik para recorrer la salvaje costa noroeste de Islandia, donde majestuosas cascadas, puestos avanzados abandonados y acantilados repletos de aves marinas definen un paisaje modelado por el aislamiento. Tras cruzar el fáctico Círculo Polar Ártico, la travesía se adentra en el vasto Mar de Groenlandia con rumbo a la remota y volcánica isla de Jan Mayen, donde el imponente pico Beerenberg emerge solitario del océano abierto.

A medida que navega hacia el norte, la luz persiste durante la noche y el entorno se vuelve cada vez más dramático. En Svalbard se despliega una naturaleza virgen con fiordos profundos, glaciares y una fauna fascinante que incluye renos, zorros árticos y el esquivo oso polar. El viaje concluye en el idílico Adventfjord en Longyearbyen, rodeado de escarpadas montañas, completando una experiencia de expedición pura.

Lo más destacado:
Exploración de la majestuosa cascada Dynjandi y los remotos fiordos occidentales de Islandia.
Desembarco en la volcánica y aislada isla de Jan Mayen para contemplar el volcán Beerenberg.
Navegación escénica por el Mar de Groenlandia con avistamiento de ballenas minke, jorobadas y de aleta.
Safaris en Zodiac y búsqueda de fauna ártica en el archipiélago de Svalbard, incluyendo osos polares.

Itinerario

Día 1: Reikiavik, Islandia
Docking Port
In the southwest of Iceland near Faxaflói Bay lies the capital of the country, Reykjavík, simultaneously cosmopolitan and charming. The colorful houses on the horizon create a quaint scene that will make you want to stay forever. Kaleidoscopic views await you at the Harpa Concert Hall, a glittering, glass structure that perfectly exemplifies Iceland’s modern design and will fascinate your inner architect. One of Iceland’s most prominent landmarks is Perlan, originally a group of hot water tanks that was converted to a building that now hosts an exhibition, planetarium, restaurant and observation deck, located atop Öskjuhlíð hill.

Día 2: Dynjandi, Islandia – Captain’s Choice
At Sea
Imagine standing before the majestic Dynjandi waterfall in Iceland, where the world’s edges seem to touch the sky. As the cascading waters thunder down the rocky cliffside, nature hums an ancient song of exploration just for you. Dynjandi, often seen as the crowning jewel of the Westfjords, is an embodiment of raw beauty and untamed wilderness, inviting you to witness Iceland’s grandeur firsthand. With the possibility of a Zodiac safari, we don’t just see the falls; we immerse you in them. Navigate the serene waters at the base of Dynjandi, getting an unparalleled view from a genuinely unique angle. Feel the spray of the icy waters and the thrill of adventure as you glide closer, experiencing the symphony of rushing streams that echo the spirit of Viking explorers past. This is a chance to write your chapter in the epic saga of discovery.

Día 3: Djupavik, Islandia – Captain’s Choice
At Sea
Tucked deep in Iceland’s Westfjords, Djúpavík is a tiny hamlet with a haunting, end-of-the-world atmosphere. A waterfall tumbles behind weather-worn houses, while the shell of a 1930s herring factory invites exploration and photography. Few visitors reach this remote fjord, where seals often bask on rocky outcrops and seabirds wheel above the water. Coming ashore here feels like stepping into a living postcard of isolation, history, and wild coastal beauty. CAPTAIN’S CHOICE – Your Captain will expertly navigate ice floes, icebergs and changing sea and weather conditions to ensure you experience the most from your expedition. Each day is a new adventure filled with a spontaneous sense of exploration as your Captain works with our expedition team to determine possible shore landings and Zodiac safaris. All itinerary routes serve as examples and are subject to change based on current conditions, prioritizing the safety and optimal expedition experience for all guests.

Día 4: Málmey Island & Drangey Island, Islandia – Captain’s Choice
At Sea
Malmey lies off Iceland’s north coast, a rarely visited isle alive with seabirds. Puffins, kittiwakes, and fulmars nest on grassy ledges above basalt slopes, while quiet beaches invite exploration by Zodiac. Its remoteness offers a chance to appreciate Iceland’s wilder side, where crisp sea air and sweeping views reward those who seek solitude amid thriving birdlife. Drangey Island, a lone sea stack rising from Skagafjörður, is famed for its teeming bird cliffs. Puffins, guillemots, and fulmars nest on ledges that plunge dramatically into the sea, while legends speak of outlaws once sheltering among its heights. Approaching by Zodiac reveals a striking fortress of basalt alive with calls and wingbeats—an unforgettable stop for photographers and bird-lovers alike.

Día 5: Crossing the Arctic Circle – Captain’s Choice
At Sea
Few travel milestones are as memorable as crossing the fabled Arctic Circle. As your ship sails north, you join the ranks of explorers who have ventured into these high latitudes, where the sun lingers on the horizon and ice-choked seas define the landscape. Many mariners celebrate this passage with the lighthearted tradition of becoming a “Blue Nose,” a symbolic order marking your entry into the true High Arctic. Whether you mark it with a toast on deck or simply savor the view, this moment is a highlight of any polar journey.

Día 6: Jan Mayen Island – Captain’s Choice
At Sea
Few travelers ever set foot on Jan Mayen, a volcanic outpost adrift in the Arctic Ocean. Dominated by Beerenberg, the world’s northernmost active volcano, the island’s glaciers cascade to the sea, carving stark slopes that tumble into lava fields and bird-clad cliffs alive with fulmars and kittiwakes. Landings here are a true expedition prize—remote, wind-sculpted, and rich with the sense of discovery that defines polar exploration.

Día 7: Greenland Sea Scenic Navigation
At Sea
Crossing the Greenland Sea immerses you in wide horizons and prime whale-watching waters. July often brings minke, humpback, and fin whales—occasionally even blues—feeding in the nutrient-rich depths. Seabirds trace the swells, and shifting light turns the sea silver or indigo. This serene passage offers time to reflect on the Arctic’s scale while enjoying informal talks on the region’s natural history.

Día 8-11: Exploring Svalbard – Captain’s Choice
At Sea
Even in one of the most isolated regions of the Arctic, there is still the captivating history of a pioneering past. Our expedition leaders, along with the captain and onboard pilot, will determine possible landings each day for all-out explorations. Wildlife abounds throughout the archipelago of Svalbard, such as puffins, reindeer, Arctic terns and foxes. An expert photographer will help you look out for the perfect photo opportunity of these animals, but especially for the elusive polar bear. As Zodiac cruises may bring you closer to glaciers, keep your eyes on the water for whale fins.

Día 12: Longyearbyen (Svalbard), Noruega
Anchor Port
Longyearbyen is in a valley on the shores of the idyllic Adventfjord, surrounded by steep mountains and several glaciers. There are only around 25 miles of roads in this village, which is divided into several neighborhoods, including the town center and Nybyen (New Town), which consists of charming miners’ barracks constructed after the war, as well as guest houses, a restaurant and gallery, and not to mention beautiful views of the landmark mountain, Hiorthfjellet. Be sure to visit the Svalbard museum as a break between the plethora of activities like summer dogsledding or cruising to the abandoned Russian city of Pyramiden.
