About This Cruise
oin us on an expedition cruise from Kangerlussuaq to Reykjavík, tracing the Norse sea route to Greenland in far more comfort than a Viking longship. Our journey begins in the picture-perfect village of Kangaamiut, steeped in Greenlandic tradition and the nearby cliffs and glaciers of Eternity Fjord before exploring Nuuk, Greenland’s colourful capital, where traditional houses stand beside glass towers, and seal hunts meet smartphones. Next, we sail into the lush green fjords of South Greenland. Here we’ll visit Brattahlíð at Qassiarsuk, the first European settlement in the Americas, and trek to Igaliku, once the seat of Greenland’s Norse bishops. From here we navigate the jaw-dropping glacier-lined Prins Christians Sund, and onwards to the towering peaks and perfect stillness of spellbinding Skjoldungen Fjord. Our voyage culminates on the rugged East Coast of Greenland, where we’ll experience Tunumiit culture in Tasiilaq and Kuummiut, explore haunting military history at Ikateq, and admire the icy majesty of Sermilikfjord before crossing the Denmark Strait to Reykjavík, Scandinavia’s most hip capital.
