ITINERARY
Day
1: Reykjavík, Iceland
Begin
Your Adventure
Your
journey begins in the late afternoon, following a day of independent
exploration and arrival in the captivating city of
Reykjavík.
Iceland’s
cosmopolitan capital was established in the year 874 CE.
Powered
by geothermal energy, Reykjavík is widely considered one of

abound.
The
National Culture House preserves treasures like the Poetic Edda and the
Norse Sagas in their original manuscripts.
Day
2: At Sea
Set
Sail like the Vikings
Watch
for whales and seabirds as we sail the Denmark Strait.
You’ll
be truly in the wake of the Vikings as we journey westward from Iceland.
The
on-board learning program will prepare you for the archaeology,
history, culture, and wildlife that await you in Greenland!
Day
3-5: Southeast Greenland
Witness
Fjords, Icebergs, and Whales
Explore
the remote reaches of southeast Greenland by ship, in Zodiacs, and on
land.
Your
first views of this seldom-visited region will reveal a stunning
coastline traced with innumerable fjords and potentially dotted with
pack ice.
Whether
on foot, on shore, or on the ship, our expert expedition team will be
by your side, sharing their extensive knowledge and insights. Join them
out on deck to keep a keen eye out for iconic Arctic wildlife,
including the polar bears, seals, and humpback whales. Learn from their
expertise as they provide fascinating interpretation and help you gain
a profound connection to the stunning landscapes we traverse.
Day
6: Ikerasassuaq (Prince Christian Sound)
Marvel
at Mountains and Glaciers
Make
the most of your time out on deck, as our experts scout for
opportunities to go ashore along this breathtaking landscape.
Soak
in the natural beauty of one of the world’s most majestic
waterways, Ikerasassuaq (Prince Christian Sound), where the Irminger
and Labrador Seas join through the islands of the Cape Farewell
Archipelago.
Here,
craggy mountain peaks tower over still waters fed by calving glaciers.
Day
7: Brattahlíð
Tour
a Reconstructed Norse Settlement
Visit
fascinating Brattahlíð, a UNESCO World Heritage Site
in the most fertile region of Greenland. Walk amongst a reconstructed
Norse church and Viking longhouse to fully immerse yourself in the
experience.
It
was once the home of Viking explorer Erik the Red and his descendants
until the 1400s. Today, Greenlandic Inuit run the sheep farms
originally worked by Norse settlers.
Day
8-9: South Greenland
Explore
Dramatic Landscapes
South
Greenland lives up to its namesake; here, the land is fertile and
agriculture thrives. Farms and vegetable husbandry contrast with the
barren ice that covers so much of the country. This is a region where
jagged mountains rise dramatically from green pastures, and sheep farms
border the stunning ice fjords. The fjords here are nothing short of
breathtaking, with their deep blue waters and towering cliffs creating
an awe-inspiring backdrop for every adventure.
As
we explore, whether by Zodiac or on foot, we’ll be surrounded
by this remarkable landscape, where Norse history intersects with
contemporary Greenlandic life. The fjords add an unparalleled sense of
beauty and serenity to the journey, making every moment unforgettable.
Day
10: Sermersooq
Enjoy
Birdwatching and Zodiac Cruising
Explore
the Sermersooq region of Greenland by Zodiac or by foot, as landing
conditions permit.
Here
you’ll find a stunning myriad of mountain peaks, glaciers,
and deep fjords, with records of human habitation that stretch back
over 1,500 years.
Keep
a look out for nattoralik (white-tailed eagles), seabirds, and marine
mammals while you enjoy the lush vegetation of southwest Greenland.
Day
11-12: Nuuk
Visit
Museums, Shops, and Cafés
Stop
in at vibrant Nuuk, the capital of Greenland. Visit the Greenland
National Museum, one of the city’s many outstanding features,
where the world-famous Qilakitsoq mummies rest.
The
old harbour includes many buildings dating from Danish colonial days,
while contemporary Nuuk is known for art, shopping, pubs, and
cafés.
