Map & Cruise Itinerary

Embark aboard the Expedition in the afternoon and depart Iceland in the late afternoon. Arrival transfer included.

Enjoy the lecture series while watching the seas for whales. Head away from Iceland and the steaming hot springs of Reykjavík. The view is often complemented by soaring fulmars, kittiwakes, gannets, guillemots, and razorbills.

Arrive across the Denmark Strait in Greenland today and the largest town in East Greenland known as Tasiilaq. Anchor near the village and board zodiacs to shore. Explore by foot and enjoy Tasiilaq’s architecturally unique church, and the small but excellent museum. This town is a gateway to the gorgeous wilderness of the east with opportunities for hiking, kayaking, and experiencing traditional Inuit culture.

Spend the next few days along the southern tip of Greenland. Start by sailing towards the Skjoldungen Fjords and its rugged, spectacular, lonesome scenery. There is very little human presence here with no current or recent settlement. Depending on weather, the group will take zodiacs to shore and visit the Qoornoq site, which are archaeological remains. Then, sail through Prince Christian Sound with its towering mountains, massive glaciers, and a variety of icebergs along the southernmost tip of Greenland. If possible, visit Aappilattoq, often referred to as “The Patagonia of the North” and one of the most remote settlements in the region nestled at the intersection of two long fjords. Next up, visit Hvalsey, a major viking settlement in Greenland established in the 10th century. The ruins are well-preserved and include the church, making it a fascinating place to explore Norse history.

The next two days consist of crossing the Davis Strait. This southern arm of the Arctic Ocean lies just north of the Labrador Sea. It can be found between mid-western Greenland and Baffin Island in Nunavut, Canada. The strait is named for the English explorer John Davis, who came to the area while seeking a Northwest Passage.

Enjoy time sailing along the Newfoundland and Labrador coastline. Begin in Hebron, a former Inuit community on the Labrador coast and now a National Historic Site of Canada. Visit in the morning and see the abandoned Moravian mission and the northernmost settlement here. These sites offer a glimpse into Labrador's unique history, particularly the impact of the Moravian Church on Inuit culture and life. Travel onward via the ship to Hopedale which is the legislative capital of the Inuit Land Claims Area Nunatsiavut, and where the Nunatsiavut Assembly meets. The site has been recognized for its aesthetic, historic, and cultural value, representing a crucial part of Labrador's heritage. Sail further south to L'Anse aux Meadows, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and only authentic Norse site in North America. And then, see the stunning scenery of Woody Point. Located on the edge of Bonne Bay with the Tablelands as its impressive backdrop, it is the gateway to Gros Morne National Park where there are lots of opportunities for hiking, kayaking, and wildlife viewing.

Enjoy time at sea aboard the ship between Woody Point and St. John’s, the capital of Newfoundland. It is one of the oldest and most easterly cities in North America and combines big-city with traditional small-town charm. Arrive sometime on the second day at sea and explore the city’s old streets, “candy row” houses, and take in the views of the Atlantic Ocean.

Shortly after breakfast, disembark the ship. Transfers to the St. John's airport will be offered to all passengers with flights scheduled.

New Ship, Same Spirit

Extensively refurbished with new engines, upgraded common areas, and refreshed cabins with ensuite bathrooms, this adventure-ready vessel was designed to keep things cosy, capable and close to the action.

Gadventures Antarctica Cierva Cove 4644

Small Ship, Big Adventure

With space for just 128 passengers, the Expedition offers an intimate and immersive experience that larger ships can’t match. The small-group size allows guests to disembark and explore twice a day (weather permitting), maximising time ashore for wildlife encounters, photography and unforgettable moments amid the ice and wilderness. That means more time on land, more wildlife sightings, and way more moments you’ll never forget.
