Ready to sail straight into the Arctic’s greatest hits — in reverse? Over 15 epic days, you’ll kick things off in Reykjavík, Iceland’s legendary Land of Fire and Ice, before heading north toward the untouched wilds of Svalbard. Along the way, cruise past towering icebergs, explore fjords by Zodiac, and wander quiet tundra trails where few travellers have stepped. From whale sightings to Inuit culture and polar bear country, every day brings a new “wow” — until your journey wraps in Longyearbyen, deep in the high Arctic and a world away from the everyday.
Embark aboard the Expedition in the afternoon and depart Reykjavík in the late afternoon. Arrival transfer included. (D)
