  • Witness the ethereal beauty of the UNESCO-listed icefjord and the icebergs in Disko Bay.
  • Discover unique rock formations in the World Heritage-listed Gros Morne National Park, created by tectonic plates colliding.
  • Marvel at the spectacular scenery and fall colours of Torngat Mountains National Park.

Embark on a remarkable Arctic journey, beginning in Kangerlussuaq and concluding in Halifax. This engaging voyage takes you through storied regions filled with awe-inspiring sights, from Greenland’s iceberg-laden waters to the rugged beauty of Canada’s Atlantic coast. While parts of the itinerary venture into Arctic conditions—such as Iqaluit, Lady Franklin Island, and the Torngats—the sailing also highlights the rich maritime heritage of Canada's Labrador and Newfoundland.

From the ice-encased fjord of Ilulissat in Disko Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site, to Nuuk’s vibrant arts scene, the Torngat Mountains' majestic beauty in Labrador, and the Viking history of UNESCO-listed L'Anse Aux Meadows, the cruise immerses guests in a mosaic of cultural and natural wonders. Delve into indigenous life in Iqaluit and history of Hebron, witness the stunning fjords of Bonne Bay, and walk through the historic streets of Halifax.

Throughout this sailing, varied activities enhance the journey. Experience guided expedition walks on Disko Island, paddle through icy waters, enjoy expert lectures, and perfect your photography skills under the northern lights. Relish onboard luxuries with sea days offering relaxation, indulgent spa treatments, or expert-led lectures, ensuring every moment spent aboard is as captivating as the destinations themselves.
