- Days 1-2
Reykjavik & Departure
Start your journey in Reykjavik where you can explore the downtown area on foot. Take the FlyBus from Keflavik Airport - it's a 45-minute ride and much cheaper than taxis. The next day you'll catch your charter flight to Kangerlussuaq Greenland to board your expedition ship. Remember to pack warm clothes as Reykjavik summer evenings can get quite cool at 45°F/7°C.
- Days 3-4
West Greenland Coast
Visit Maniitsoq and Sisimiut with their stunning fjords and mountains. The 47-mile Eternity Fjord is incredible - bring extra camera batteries since cold weather drains them quickly. Stop by the bright blue Bethel Church in Sisimiut and see local kayak-making demonstrations. In Ilulissat you'll get your first look at massive icebergs at the UNESCO Icefjord. You'll need waterproof pants and solid boots for Zodiac trips since the water spray gets cold.
- Days 5-7
Davis Strait & Nunavut
The journey continues across Davis Strait to the Canadian Arctic. You can learn about Arctic wildlife and geology during onboard talks while at sea. Your stop in Pangnirtung Nunavut offers authentic Inuit culture experiences. Bring cash for the excellent textile art since ATMs are limited. At Cape Mercy you can explore an old Cold War radar station and take guided coastal hikes.
- Days 8-10
Torngat Mountains & Nunatsiavut
Spend two full days in Torngat Mountains National Park which has Canada's highest peaks east of the Rockies. Look out for caribou black bears and Arctic foxes. Good hiking boots are essential for the challenging terrain. A recent visitor shared: "The Zodiac rides were chilly but seeing polar bears on the shoreline made it worthwhile. The expedition team really knew where to look." Visit the modern Illusuak Cultural Centre and historic Moravian Mission in Nain Nunatsiavut's capital. Try to sample local arctic char if available.
- Days 11-12
Sea Day & Viking History
- Days 13-14
Final Sea Day & St. John's
Spend your last sea day enjoying final lectures and wildlife watching from deck. The ship arrives early in St. John's Newfoundland. If time allows before your flight explore the colorful houses on Water Street. The airport is close just 15 minutes from the harbor. Book afternoon flights to avoid common morning fog delays.

13 Days in Arctic Greenland, incl. Reykjavik and Northeast Greenland National Park
The 13-day Nordic adventure combines 8 days in Greenland, 2 days crossing Denmark Strait, with additional time to take in Iceland's southern attractions.
- Day 1
Reykjavik, Iceland
Start your Arctic adventure in Iceland's capital. Take half a day to explore Laugavegur's shopping district and the unique Hallgrímskirkja Church. Book your hotel downtown near Harpa Concert Hall for easy walking access to main attractions. Plan your airport transfer ahead since taxis cost about $140 and the ride takes 45 minutes.
- Day 2
At Sea
The Iceland to Greenland crossing takes a full day. Attend expedition team briefings about wildlife protocols and East Greenland expectations. Book a midship cabin on a lower deck if you get seasick as there's less motion. The ship's doctor offers seasickness patches if needed.
- Days 3-7
Northeast Greenland National Park
You'll explore the world's largest national park which sees only a few hundred visitors each year. Your route depends on weather and ice but includes daily Zodiac cruises among icebergs and potential landings to spot musk oxen and Arctic foxes. Activities usually begin at 8:30 AM with great photo opportunities in the Arctic light. Don't forget waterproof pants for Zodiac rides since they can get wet.

Bring Danish Krone for local crafts and remember to ask before taking photos in this remote 350-person settlement. Watch for polar bears during early morning deck watches the fjords offer your best chances to spot them.
- Days 11-12
Denmark Strait
During the return journey join science lectures and help collect data on seabirds and microplastics. Keep your warm clothes handy for whale watching humpbacks and fin whales are common in this area.
- Day 13
Return to Reykjavik
Back in Reykjavik consider visiting the Blue Lagoon book the 8 AM slot to avoid crowds. If flying out same day book an afternoon flight since morning disembarkation takes time.
