Description
Join us on an expedition cruise to Northeast Greenland – one of the last unspoiled wildernesses in the world. As we venture into the world’s largest fjord system with the 12-passenger ship M/S Balto, we will experience breath-taking nature and scenery, large icebergs in unimaginable shapes. The fresh air, the silence and the enormity of nature is captivating.
During walks we are always keeping an eye out for grazing musk-ox, Arctic hare, Arctic fox and other wildlife. With our sturdy Zodiacs we explore further afield, cruise amongst large stranded icebergs and make shore landings. If we are very lucky, we get to see groups of narwhal in the innermost fjords. It is truly exciting and a great privilege to witness these beautiful unicorns of the sea. In September, we also have the chance to see the spectacular Northern Lights dancing in the sky.
Travelling with a small group of merely 12 passengers gives us more flexibility, more unique itineraries and more time ashore. Also, the footprints we leave behind are a lot smaller! The M/S Balto has a lot of experience of and is designed to explore the most remote fjord systems and find secret anchorages. This is true micro cruising.
