GREENLAND 2024 Join Fredrik Granath and Melissa Schäfer on board the best expedition ship in the Arctic for an amazing adventure and a unique opportunity to experience one of the most remote and untouched areas on our planet: the extreme wilderness of Greenland. SCORESBY SOUND ON GREENLAND is an absolutely spectacular area. The fjord goes into the coast of eastern Greenland with waters beautifully framed by steep, dramatic mountains. For over eight months every year the fjord is packed with ice. When we visit in August, gigantic ice bergs are floating around the often mirror-like waters which are surrounded by land covered in spectacular autumn colors. This is an exclusive expedition with a small group on the best ship for an adventure cruise like this. We travel through the fjord system and use our small zodiac boats as often as possible to get even closer to the nature around, like ice bergs and wildlife, and to go on land. We will hopefully encounter musk oxen, some seals and with a bit of luck also polar bears and whales, such as belugas. If the ice conditions allow it, we may also travel a bit north of Scoresby Sound, along the eastern coast of Greenland to the North Pole pack ice. This is a unique opportunity to visit one of the most difficult to reach and stunning areas on our planet.
