Expedition cruises to East Greenland offer a breathtaking journey through one of the Arctic's most remote and untouched regions. This rugged coastline is home to towering glaciers, deep fjords, and stunning icebergs, creating a dramatic and ever-changing landscape.

Itineraries often feature Scoresby Sund, the world's most extensive fjord system, where passengers can see massive ice formations and remote Inuit settlements like Ittoqqortoormiit. 

Many cruises operate in late summer and early autumn when the sea ice recedes, revealing hidden waterways. Depending on the season, passengers may witness the Northern Lights dancing over the Arctic sky in various glorious colours.
