    Reykjavik, Iceland
    • Reykjavik, Iceland
    Explore the world's northernmost capital. Your adventure deep into the Arctic starts in Reykjavik. A laid-back city of art, culture, and history, delightful Reykjavik is well worth spending some time getting to know. Take a stroll along Laugavegur with its boutiques and outdoor shops, or gaze in awe at the striking Hallgrimskirkja Church, and drop by the fascinating Reykjavik Art Museum. Your expedition ship awaits you in Reykjavik Harbour. After being welcomed aboard and collecting your complimentary expedition jacket, it's time to settle into your cabin and enjoy your first dinner. If you have the time, consider booking a Pre-Program and discover some of Iceland's natural highlights before your cruise begins. ...

    Grundarfjordur, Iceland
    • Grundarfjordur, Iceland
    Gateway to spectacular Snaefellsnes. The majestic Kirkjufell mountain, one of the best-known landmarks of Iceland, rises just two miles west of the small harbor of Grundarfjordur, a quaint fishing town in Breidafjordur bay. Nearby, you'll find Snaefellsnes Peninsula National Park, with the striking, ice-capped Snaefellsjokull volcano at the western tip. Its wide array of landscapes has earned it the nickname 'Little Iceland'. At the national park, you can visit Djupalonssandur's black sand beach and the Saxholl crater. Or why not ride a snowcat to the top of the Snaefellsjokull glacier or take a guided underground tour along a gigantic lava tube? ...

    Isafjordur, Iceland
    • Isafjordur, Iceland
    Explore Westfjords' beautiful harborside town. Flanked by towering mountains on all sides, Isafjordur is a nearly perfect natural harbor and an excellent gateway to the Westfjords region. Stroll around to see the architecture, shop for local handicrafts, and see some of the oldest houses in Iceland. One of these historic 18th-century buildings is home to Westfjords Heritage Museum, where you can learn about the maritime past of this fascinating port. If you prefer something more energetic, take the steep hike up to Naustahvilft - the Troll's Throne. You'll be rewarded for your efforts with a stunning panoramic view at the top. ...

    Akureyri, Iceland
    • Akureyri, Iceland
    Dramatic moonscapes and waterfalls. Gaze at snowcapped peaks as we cruise along Eyjafjordur, Iceland's longest fjord. Together with neighboring Skjalfandi bay, it's one of the best places in Europe to spot whales. Iceland's 'Northern Capital', Akureyri, sits at the base of the fjord. Here, you'll enjoy the oasis of a botanical garden, and can visit some excellent eateries and museums. A little further on, witness the picturesque Godafoss waterfall, where turquoise waters pound against black rocks. You can also see geology come to life around Lake Myvatn, one of Iceland's most active volcanic areas, and one of the few places to explore the Mid-Atlantic Ridge up close. ...

    Husavik, Iceland
    • Husavik, Iceland
    Whales, volcanos, and the horse of Odin. Today you'll discover Husavik, a pleasant small town famous for excellent whale-watching opportunities. The town looks out over Skjalfandi bay, which enjoys visits from humpback and minke whales, white-beaked dolphins, harbor porpoises, and even elusive blue whales. Geology and mythology come together at nearby Asbyrgi canyon, a horseshoe-shaped canyon that, according to Norse mythology, was created when Odin's horse Sleipnir accidentally put one of his eight legs down on the ground. Further south is Lake Myvatn. Nowhere else will you find such an array of active volcanic features and landscape evolution, including evidence of dramatic eruptions such as the 18th-century Myvatn fires and the Krafla fires of the late 1970s. ...

    Enjoy a restorative day in the Arctic. Take time to relax on the ship today as we cruise through Arctic waters towards Jan Mayen. Enjoy panoramic views and chat with fellow guests in the Explorer Lounge & Bar, or soak in a hot tub out on deck while scanning for seabirds. You can also listen to a lecture or two on topics such as local history, geology, or Arctic wildlife. Or visit the Science Center for more in-depth insights into the places we'll be visiting and maybe participate in a Citizen Science project that contributes to ongoing scientific research. ...

    Jan Mayen, Norway
    • Jan Mayen, Norway
    Visit an active volcano that's a haven for birdlife. Jan Mayen has no permanent residents and visits to the island are rare. In fact, we're one of the few to attempt landings here. If conditions allow, you'll be setting foot in one of Earth's most remote places. Jan Mayen's surreal, moss- and lichen-streaked landscape is dominated by the Beerenberg volcanic cone. It's the world's northernmost active volcano, which last erupted in 1985. You won't see land mammals here, but the island is designated an Important Bird Area, supporting large populations of northern fulmars, Brunnich's guillemots, and little auks. Look out for abundant marine life in the surrounding waters, including whales and seals. ...

    At Sea
    • At Sea
    A peaceful interlude in your adventure. Spend the day relaxing as we sail deeper into the Arctic toward the Svalbard archipelago. Savor the quiet moments, simply appreciating the peaceful feeling of being at sea. This is a rare opportunity to disconnect and take a break from the modern world. Feeling active? Fit in a workout in the gym or simply relax in the panoramic sauna while gazing out at the view. Like always, the Expedition Team will be on hand to answer your questions and offer insights into these Arctic islands. ...

    Spitsbergen, Norway
    • Spitsbergen, Norway
    A land of spectacular beauty. Spitsbergen showcases Arctic beauty in its untouched glory; a wilderness of steep mountains, stark glaciers, and eerily beautiful islands. Over the next five days you'll visit some of the world's most dramatic fjords and see glaciers preparing to calve icebergs into the sea. Each day will be different. From landings to kayaking, be ready for anything as your captain and Expedition Team decide on the best landing sites and activities based on the day's conditions. Perhaps we'll head to the snowcapped peaks of Hornsund, or visit Ny-Alesund, the world's northernmost settlement and an important climate research station. Making our way to the northwest corner of Spitsbergen, we'll cruise through Sorgattet, the southern entrance to Smeerenburgfjord. The light of the Midnight Sun gives us plenty of time to explore this breathtakingly scenic area. If conditions allow, we may even cross the 80th parallel north and explore the ever-changing ice edge. In the shadow of soaring snowcapped mountains, you'll discover pristine icescapes as the summer just touches the region. Marvel at the array of majestic glaciers and get an insight into the area's whaling past. On the cliffs above, look out for returning Arctic birds like little auks, Arctic terns, skuas, eider ducks, and barnacle geese. If we're lucky, we might even see the elusive polar bear in its natural environment. ...
