The largest island in Canada awaits at the entrance to the Northwest Passage. It is a marvel of fjords, mountains, and polar wildlife, and an epic destination all on its own.

Our expedition ships venture where many cruise liners can’t. But we want to go further. We want to immerse you in the raw, untamed beauty of the natural world – and that’s where our small expedition boats come in.

From making history as the first Chief Scientist across any cruise liner, to pioneering and growing the Science & Education programme into what it is today. Verena has crafted an iconic legacy - and she's not finished yet.

We are proud to support many vital Citizen Science projects on board our ships as we venture to off-the-beaten-track locations.

Greenland’s northernmost point is just 708 km away from the North Pole and forms part of the Arctic Circle. While the noun Arctic refers to that geographical area, ‘arctic’ is also widely recognised as an adjective to describe something as ‘extremely cold’. With that in mind, Greenland’s climate can definitely be described as arctic.

Happywhale, a global Citizen Science project, was established in 2015 to record whale sightings and build a better understanding of these magnificent creatures.
