Also available are videos which take you through a typical day in the life of an Arctic or Antarctic voyage, as well as how to pack for the Polar Regions. All content will be available for social sharing.

“Whether you’re a first-time explorer or a seasoned wayfarer, our new site acts as a virtual Polar Travel Adviser, providing essential information on the regions themselves, as well the incredible wildlife to be seen, landing sites, history and the various activities offered,” stated Hans Lagerweij, president of Quark Expeditions. “Because of the use of magnificent photography and inspiring videos, this Polar website truly brings the expedition to life.”

Whether you’re looking to walk amongst giant penguin colonies, explore stretches of the Antarctic Peninsula by kayak, or view an incredible display of the northern lights from the ship’s deck, there’s a voyage you can explore in more detail on the new QuarkExpeditions.com.
