The Northwest Passage - Tour Summary
Explore, discover and dream as we sail in comfort on board our exclusively chartered polar exploration vessel on a voyage through Canada’s most historical waterway. This is a unique opportunity to sail to areas of exceptional landscapes and seascapes, make landings at Hudson’s Bay and Franklin sites, take in the best polar bear, whale, muskox and walrus viewing, hike the vast tundra, visit remote Nunavut communities and enjoy onboard presentations by Canadian experts on the geography, the history and contemporary reality of the Canadian High Arctic. Our 2013 route will take us from Cambridge Bay through the Northwest Passage and the Davis Strait to Kangerlussuaq, Greenland. Our entire voyage will be north of the Arctic Circle.
