Across the North Atlantic: Iceland, Greenland & Labrador

An Expedition Across The North Atlantic

Travel from Iceland to Newfoundland on an expedition that links three remarkably different regions of the North Atlantic. Beginning in Keflavík, cross the Denmark Strait to Greenland before continuing through Labrador and along the coast of Newfoundland to St John's. Along the way, explore glacier-carved fjords, remote communities, archaeological sites and landscapes shaped by centuries of Inuit and Norse history. Zodiac excursions and expedition landings provide opportunities to experience places that conventional cruise itineraries rarely reach, while the onboard expedition team adds insight into the wildlife, history and environment of this remote part of the world.

Expedition Cruising, Designed for Discovery

This journey is designed for travellers who want more than a conventional cruise experience. A specialist expedition team accompanies the voyage, with Zodiac excursions, educational programs and opportunities for walking, hiking and wildlife viewing along the way. The itinerary remains flexible because weather and sea conditions can influence expedition landings, which is part of the appeal of this style of travel. Rather than simply following a fixed port schedule, each day brings opportunities to explore according to the conditions encountered.

Why I Like This Journey

How often do you see Iceland, Greenland and Newfoundland connected in one itinerary? I particularly like the sense of progression. You leave Iceland behind, explore Greenland's vast fjords and small communities, cross the Davis Strait and then discover Labrador and Newfoundland, including important Inuit and Norse heritage sites. It feels like a genuine journey across the North Atlantic rather than a collection of unrelated ports.

Ideal For

Travellers who enjoy dramatic scenery, remote destinations, history and wildlife, or those looking for an expedition experience that goes well beyond the familiar polar itineraries. A reasonable level of mobility is important, as expedition landings can involve Zodiacs, wet beach landings and walking over uneven terrain.
