Cruises in the Arctic

Follow in the footsteps of early explorers on an Arctic expedition cruise. This is the easiest and most comfortable way of experiencing this vast region of glaciers, fjords and elusive wildlife, with boat trips providing access to places unreachable by land. On most days you’ll disembark to take small group trips by rigid inflatable or on land to observe wildlife, explore the landscape and experience Inuit culture in the company of a highly qualified guide. 

Cruises run during the Arctic’s brief summer and the vessels vary considerably. Have a look through the options below and discuss your ideas with a member of our team.
