Embark on a captivating expedition sailing from Iceland to the Lofoten Islands. This journey begins in Reykjavik, Iceland, and culminates in Tromsø, Norway. Through an exploration of volcanic landscapes and breathtaking fjords, explorers will experience the raw power of nature. This journey takes you from the volcanic landscapes of Iceland to the dramatic fjords and fishing villages of Norway, all under the ethereal glow of the Arctic summer sun.

Known as the whale-watching capital of Iceland, Husavik, offers opportunities to see various whale species. Experience the cultural charm of this Arctic city, including its connection to the Sami heritage.

One of the biggest highlights of this sailing is Reine, in the Lofoten Islands, a picturesque fishing village, characterised by red and white fishermen’s huts against a backdrop of granite peaks.

Get up close to Norway’s second-largest glacier, the Svartisen Glacier, a breathtaking expanse of ice and snow. Experience the calmness of the area and the pristine beauty that is mostly untouched.
