Greenland, despite its name, is mostly covered by an enormous white ice cap covering 1,710,000 square kilometres making it the second largest ice body in the world. The cap was first traversed in 1888 by Norwegian explorer, zoologist and oceanographer Fridtjof Nansen. In 2010 Greenland closed the ice cap for the first time in known history for any expedition crew wanting to traverse it – all due to the melting ice. However, Greenland has far more to offer; from trekking in the southeast, kayaking, and dog sledding, or just cruising along its magnificent coastline. You can join us for one or all of these experiences, either aboard one of our expedition cruise ships, or in the company of our experienced Greenlandic travel partners.
