At a Glance

The hum of your Zodiac’s outboard motor stops, and you wait. There it is! A humpback whale pierces the water’s surface, pirouetting with a splash. To perhaps witness this rare spectacle is one reason you have voyaged north to the wild coastlines of Greenland and Newfoundland & Labrador. On this educational adventure, discover for yourself how these rugged lands where Vikings lived 600 years ago aren’t all together so different today. Learn in these Arctic enclaves how the friendly residents — like the reindeer and grey-leaf willows — not only endure this extreme outpost but embrace it.
Activity Level
Keep the Pace
Walking and standing for up to three hours per day over hilly, rocky, uneven terrain. Climbing stairs between decks on board as well as external gangway stairs to transfer between the ship and Zodiacs. Most embarkations and disembarkations will be via Zodiac, which require stepping up or down approximately 12 inches. Zodiac landings will generally entail disembarking onto rocky or gravelly beaches, and in windy weather can make for rather splashy rides.

The operators reserve the right to change the content and duration of excursions without prior notice and so the cruise itinerary should always be regarded as provisional. Whenever possible, Road Scholar’s published daily schedule will indicate port arrival and departure times. Prior to departure, if there is a major change, we will make every effort to alert you. For less significant changes, we will update you during orientation. Thank you for your understanding.

Kangerlussuaq, the town at its eastern head, means ‘the big fjord.’ While on board, rotating members of the ship's resource staff will offer educational presentations on a variety of topics. Many are active researchers with expertise in areas such as history, paleontology, geology, and biology. At each expedition port of call, you will have a choice of field trips that will vary by location such as nature activities (minimal walking), short walks (about .5 - 1.5 miles), longer walks (2-3 miles) and photography sessions led by resource staff. Program activities, schedules, personnel, and indicated distances or times may change due to local circumstances/conditions. In the event of changes, we will alert you as quickly as possible. Expedition ships — more rugged than traditional sailing vessels — are designed to venture into remote landscapes, enabling us to seek opportunities for getting up close to nature and wildlife. These educational adventures have flexible schedules. The itinerary may change daily based on weather, sailing conditions, and potential wildlife sightings. There may also be serendipitous occasions to experience something unexpected. The schedule that follows is tentative and a representative outline. Changes in the schedule, including ports of call, can be expected due to weather and other local conditions. Updates will be provided aboard ship. Thank you for your understanding.

This museum houses the largest cultural history collection in Greenland featuring seven permanent exhibits that span back over 4,500 years. We’ll have independent time to explore the exhibits before returning to the ship. Don’t miss the chance to observe the Qilakitsoq mummies!

Despite the numerous challenges, the park is home to a stunning ecological diversity of arctic and boreal species.

Excellent weather made for an especially enjoyable trip. Outstanding expedition leaders, wonderful RS group leader, beautiful landscapes--and a great view of a lovely polar bear from our Zodiacs! I highly recommend Adventure Canada for this type of trip, which can present distinctive challenges due to the remote locations visited. If you want an adventure, check this one out!

Wendy – Class of 2019 | Carmel, IN
Such a unique and amazing experience, seeing places that are rarely seen by others! The speakers and presentations were so informative and integral to appreciating the outings. In particular, we Learned about the Inuit from the Inuit, as well as exploring other areas from native Labrador folk. Saw shrinking glaciers, a few polar bears, and even a rare display of Northern Lights. Walked on tundra with no paths and used Zodiacs to experience as much as possible. Enjoyed interacting and learning from the other Adventure Canada guests, and Ocean Endeavor staff were wonderful.

Expedition North: Greenland and Wild Labrador was the trip of a lifetime! I've dreamed of seeing the Arctic since I was young, and this trip fulfilled that dream, and gave me even more. Adventure Canada provided an unmatched opportunity to see these majestic, stark, and astonishing landscapes up close. With many shore landings and various hiking opportunities, I was able to experience Greenland and Nunatsiavut (the part of Labrador that is self-governed by the Inuit), in a profound way. The Adventure Canada staff onboard included experts in every relevant field as well as storytellers, musicians, and artists. And many of these people were of Inuit descent! So we learned about the culture, way of life, and social/historical challenges to the indigenous population not only from lectures, but also from interacting with the people themselves. The expedition leader and crew of the ship did an outstanding job of keeping us safe and secure in some difficult weather conditions. The accommodations were comfortable and the food was outstanding. I highly recommend this trip to anyone with an interest in the Arctic and the people and places of Greenland and Newfoundland & Labrador!
