Majestic and wild East Greenland
From Reykjavik, 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 get an intimate look at this precious ecosystem on landings, nature walks, and kayaking tours.
Wildlife abounds in this peaceful haven. As we glide through dark, placid waters beneath soaring mountains, you’ll be watching out for whales and other marine wildlife. Birding enthusiasts will be on the lookout for species including Brünnich's Guillemots, Snowy Owls and Greenlandic Gyrfalcons.
Southern Greenland and onto the Northwest Passage
From here, you’ll sail south to Prince Christian Sound, a remarkable maze of granite rock channels 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 voyage takes us across the Davis Strait to cruise into Canada’s Northwest Passage. Only passable a few weeks of the year, navigating this icy waterway safely involves challenging the elements, some flexibility and a sense of adventure. All routes include breathtaking scenery and abundant wildlife, with Thule and Inuit settlements. Your adventure ends in cosmopolitan Montréal.
