This expedition cruise sails from Iceland to the wild fjords of Greenland before entering the heart of Canada’s Northwest Passage.
 
From Reykjavík, we sail across the Denmark Strait to the spectacular east coast of Greenland. Our destination is Scoresbysund, the world’s largest fjord system. In total, this vast pristine region fans out over 14,000 square miles. Under the expert guidance of our Expedition Team, you’ll take an intimate look at this precious ecosystem through landings, nature walks, and kayaking tours.
Wildlife abounds in this peaceful haven. Watch for whales and other marine wildlife as we glide through dark, placid waters beneath soaring mountains. Birding enthusiasts should look out for species including Brünnich’s guillemots, snowy owls and Greenlandic gyrfalcons.
 
From here, you’ll sail south to Prince Christian Sound, a remarkable maze of granite rock filled with ice floes and glaciers. We’ll spend four days exploring the fjords and settlements, including the capital, Nuuk, and the stunning UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord.
 
The next part of your cruise takes us across the Davis Strait into Canada’s Northwest Passage. This icy waterway is only passable a few weeks of the year, so navigating it safely involves challenging the elements, needs some flexibility, and requires a sense of adventure. All routes include breathtaking scenery and abundant wildlife, with Thule and Inuit settlements. Your adventure ends in cosmopolitan Montréal.
