South Greenland | The Majestic Alpine Arctic | August 17 - 30, 2026
This is not your typical Arctic cruise. Quark Expeditions’ South Greenland Adventure takes you deep into the alpine Arctic, where dramatic fjords, towering peaks, and immense glaciers define the landscape. Aboard the Ultramarine, a state-of-the-art expedition ship equipped with two helicopters, you’ll explore some of the most remote and breathtaking regions of Greenland.
Why This Expedition Stands Out
Helicopter Adventures Included – Experience heli-hiking and land on the Greenland Ice Sheet
Extraordinary Landscapes – Cruise through ice-choked fjords and hike in the shadow of massive peaks
Cultural Connections – Visit Greenlandic communities and explore Viking history
Flexible Exploration – Choose from active excursions like hiking and Zodiac cruises or take in the scenery from the comfort of the ship
Truly Unique Experiences – Step onto the Greenland Ice Sheet and visit a UNESCO-listed fjord
