Overview - Arctic Passage
Please Call
((August 22 - September 13, 2011) Since the days of Christopher Columbus, explorers have sought a way to shorten the journey from Western Europe to the riches of the East. A northwest passage across the High Canadian Arctic was finally navigated in 1903, but not before many explorers lost their lives pursuing the dream. Today, you can relive the adventure on Quark's End of an Era, 23-day Arctic Passage expedition. Along the way, you'll enjoy the company of a distinguished guest - award-winning documentary filmmaker John Murray. David Burch will lead a navigation certification training program.

High Arctic Explorer
For me, the highlight of my trip was getting to see all of the artic amimals, especially the polar bears and walruses.
Northwest Passage
In as much as I was totally new to the experience, I found it very exciting, exhilerating, & most interesting to visit the top of the world. Seeing the ice, walking on the tundra, going where so few have gone before all added to the enjoyment.
