TRAVEL PROGRAM: tour to Iceland and Greenland
Day 1. July 29, 2027. DEPARTURE TO REYKJAVIK
Arrival in the world's northernmost capital – Reykjavik. You'll be surprised how compact and truly atmospheric it is. Climb to the observation deck of Hallgrímskirkja Church for a panoramic view of the city and the ocean, stop by Harpa Concert Hall with its famous "glass" façade, and along the way visit the National Museum to connect with Iceland's history from the Vikings to the present day. 50 km from the capital lies Þingvellir — the site of the ancient Althing and the tectonic plate rift, which you can see with your own eyes.
Meals included: no
Accommodation included: at the hotel
Day 1. July 29, 2027. REYKJAVIK
We meet at the port of Reykjavik to check in and board the ship. We'll have time to explore this small but remarkably atmospheric capital city — despite its modest size, there's no shortage of sights to see. We'll take the elevator to the top of Hallgrímskirkja Church, designed by the renowned Icelandic architect Guðjón Samúelsson. We'll visit Harpa Concert Hall in the heart of Reykjavik's revitalized harbor, also home to the Maritime Museum, and stop by the National Museum to learn about Iceland's history from the past to the present.
Meals: all-inclusive
Accommodation: in cabins aboard the ship
Day 2. July 30, 2027. DAY AT SEA
We'll spend the day at sea, enjoying ocean views from the ship's observation decks. We'll socialize with fellow travelers, browse the library's rich collection of literature, and listen to an expert lecture from our expedition team. And if we feel like it — we'll sharpen our photography skills alongside professional onboard photographers.
Meals: all-inclusive
Accommodation: in cabins aboard the ship
Days 3 - 4. July 31 - August 1, 2027. SCORESBY SUND
We'll venture deep into the world's largest fjord system – Scoresby Sund, stretching along Greenland's east coast for more than 350 km. We'll observe the region's diverse wildlife: with luck, we'll spot musk ox, Arctic fox, and Arctic hare along the snow-covered shores, and in the sky – little auks, puffins, fulmars, snowy owls, and gyrfalcons. In the waters of the fjord we'll encounter seals and whales. Optionally, we'll set out to explore the fjord by single kayak — bringing us even closer to this beauty.
Meals: all-inclusive
Accommodation: in cabins aboard the ship
Day 5. August 2, 2027. ITTOQQORTOORMIIT
We'll visit Ittoqqortoormiit – one of the most remote settlements in the world, home to around 450 people. We'll learn the history of the town, founded in 1925 by the Danish explorer Ejnar Mikkelsen and Inuit settlers. We'll get to know the Greenlandic traditions carefully preserved here: from harvesting qiviut (musk ox down) to keeping sled dogs.
Meals: all-inclusive
Accommodation: in cabins aboard the ship
Days 6 - 7. August 3 - 4, 2027. KONG OSCAR FJORD
We'll pass through Kong Oscar Fjord, which marks the northern boundary of Scoresby Sund and leads to Northeast Greenland National Park – the largest national park on Earth. We'll admire an endless labyrinth of valleys, imposing mountain ranges, and shimmering ice. We'll see the majestic Berzelius Bjerg, with its distinct bands of colored layers formed millions of years ago, when these mountains lay beneath the sea floor.
Meals: all-inclusive
Accommodation: in cabins aboard the ship
Day 8. August 5, 2027. DAY AT SEA
We'll surrender to blissful idleness, or discover something new in the onboard library. We'll savor every minute and the ever-changing scenery outside the window.
Meals: all-inclusive
Accommodation: in cabins aboard the ship
Day 9. August 6, 2027. ISAFJÖRÐUR AND VIGUR ISLAND
We'll arrive in Ísafjörður – the "ice fjord," the largest town on the Westfjords peninsula. We'll stroll among the colorful wooden houses of this lively 18th- and 19th-century fishing town. In the afternoon, we'll visit Vigur Island – a gem of the Westfjords and a seabird sanctuary, where Arctic terns, puffins, and eider ducks nest right on the rocky cliffs. We'll see a family-run farm with a centuries-old tradition of eiderdown harvesting, Iceland's only windmill, and a 200-year-old rowboat.
Meals: all-inclusive
Accommodation: in cabins aboard the ship
Day 10. August 7, 2027. DYNJANDI WATERFALL
We'll set out for Dynjandi – the largest series of waterfalls in the Westfjords. We'll climb up to it in just 15 minutes and capture stunning photos from the viewing platform of the cascades tumbling down nearly 100 meters.
Meals: all-inclusive
Accommodation: in cabins aboard the ship
Day 11. August 8, 2027. REYKJAVIK. FLIGHT HOME
Before flying home, we'll find time for one more walk through Reykjavik — we'll stop by the Reykjavik Art Museum with its collection of modern art, including works by Erró, and, if time allows, take a trip to Þingvellir National Park, 50 km from the city — the site of Iceland's first Althing.
