True Expedition Iceland & Greenland Cruise
True Expedition Iceland & Greenland Cruise
This expedition crosses from Iceland to Greenland and then explores the great island the length of its west coast, blending raw Arctic beauty with rich cultural history. From cosmopolitan Reykjavik you sail the North Atlantic to Greenland’s craggy east, where the U-shaped Skjoldungen Fjord and the towering passage of Prince Christian Sound set the tone, and the colourful village of Aappilattoq welcomes you with a traditional kaffemik. Working north, you call at Nuuk, Greenland’s small and spirited capital, sail the Eternity Fjord beneath the Evigheds Glacier, and reach Disko Bay, the iceberg capital of the world, where the UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord calves gargantuan ice into the sea. Along the way you meet Greenlandic communities, see Norse and Inuit heritage, and watch for whales and muskoxen, finishing at Kangerlussuaq deep in its fjord. You explore by Zodiac and on foot, with expert-led talks and the option to kayak, all aboard a refined boutique ship with all-inclusive comforts. Adventurous yet elegant, it is the true expedition between Iceland and Greenland.

FAQs
This is a one-way crossing from Iceland to Greenland, Reykjavik to Kangerlussuaq, that then explores Greenland the length of its west coast. From Reykjavik you reach the dramatic southern fjords, then work north through Nuuk, Disko Bay and the Ilulissat Icefjord. It is a two-country Iceland-and-Greenland voyage, finishing in Greenland rather than continuing onward.
Both begin in Iceland and cross to Greenland, but this True voyage finishes in Greenland (Kangerlussuaq) and explores its west coast in depth, on a refined boutique ship with all-inclusive drinks and an included excursion per port. The Classic continues further, across the Davis Strait to Labrador and Newfoundland in Canada, and is more value-led.
The southern fjords and Prince Christian Sound, the community kaffemik at Aappilattoq, the capital Nuuk, the Eternity Fjord, Disko Island, and above all Disko Bay and the UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord, the iceberg capital of the world. Norse and Inuit heritage and Arctic wildlife run throughout.
It is adventure-forward yet elegant: a boutique ship with all-inclusive drinks and an included excursion at each port, optional kayaking, citizen science and a seasoned expedition team, pairing Iceland’s departure with a deep, immersive exploration of Greenland’s coast.
