Expedition Itinerary - Greenland Semi-circumnavigation Tour Itinerary

(August 4 - 24, 2011) Covered in ice and shrouded in myth, Greenland was settled by two of the world's great heroic cultures: the nomadic ancestors of today's Inuit, and the ferocious land-hungry Vikings of Iceland and Norway.

Today's Greenland is no less mysterious, and few travelers are privileged to see as much of it as you will aboard Quark's one-of-a-kind Greenland semi-circumnavigation of the Arctic Circle, your last chance to tour the Arctic seas aboard celebrated Russian icebreaker Kapitan Khlebnikov.

The ice-bound northeastern shore of the world's largest island is impenetrable to all but a few ships with powerful icebreaker capabilities - yet includes some of the most breathtaking Arctic scenery ever seen. Visit traditional Greenlandic communities, sail through one of the most beautiful fjord systems int he world, and emerge forever changed by your visit to this mythic land of ice and snow.
