Expeditions

The genesis for our 13-day Iceland to Greenland: Total Solar Eclipse itinerary dates back to November 24, 2003, the day Quark Expeditions became the first and only operator to successfully lead a total solar eclipse voyage in remote Antarctica. On that day, we provided 100 people, from 17 different nations, the experience of becoming the first-ever humans to witness a total solar eclipse in Antarctica. Now we’ve decided to achieve a comparable feat in the Arctic.

Our 15-day Iceland to Greenland: Mountains, Glaciers and the Westfjords itinerary explores iconic destinations in Iceland and Greenland.  

In the seldom-visited Westfjords  of Iceland— “Iceland’s best-kept secret”—you’ll get to explore the rugged peninsula that’s renowned for its fjords, towering mountains, bird-dwelling cliffs, gushing waterfalls and rolling green hills. Before leaving Iceland, you will also have an opportunity to visit the private island sanctuary of Vigur—which is home to 7,000 eider ducks and 100,000 puffins.
