See remnants of Greenland’s colonial era in the open-air museum of Upernavik. Feel dense layers of sea-ice being crunched under your vessel’s prow. Set out in search of polar bear and walrus by Zodiac and hover over petrified forests in Ellesmere Island. Adventures of this make don’t come around too often. Will you heed the call?

  Canadian Remote Arctic: Northwest Passage to Ellesmere and Axel Heiberg Islands

  The smattering of islands contained in Canada’s Arctic north are a world away from the more accessible parts of North America. Here, the iceberg-strewn waters are home to walruses and whales and tiny Inuit communities built on permafrost. This 12-day expedition takes you into Nunavut and the Canadian High Arctic Archipelago to explore these incredible lands and waters, following the legendary Northwest Passage with an eye to encountering wildlife, historical sites and resilient people. Unlike the hardy explorers who attempted to map this landscape in days of old, you’ll be travelling in style with an onboard fitness centre, sauna and a wide range of cabin options.
