Iceland, Greenland & Svalbard

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Iceland, Greenland, and Svalbard are three of the world's most dramatic Arctic and sub-Arctic destinations, each offering raw, untouched wilderness on a spectacular scale. Iceland is famed for its volcanoes, geysers, glaciers, and the Northern Lights, while Greenland draws adventurers with its vast ice sheet, fjords, and remote Inuit communities. Svalbard, a Norwegian archipelago deep in the High Arctic, is one of the few places on Earth where polar bears outnumber people, and it's a hub for wildlife expeditions and midnight sun experiences. Together, they attract explorers, hikers, photographers, and nature lovers seeking some of the planet's most extreme and awe-inspiring landscapes.

Arctic Highlights Northbound — Self-Launched

A self-launched take on G Adventures' 15-day Arctic Highlights Northbound voyage. The original is a small-ship expedition aboard the 128-passenger Expedition, sailing from Keflavík across the Denmark Strait to Scoresbysund on East Greenland, then the Greenland Sea to western Spitsbergen, ending in Longyearbyen. Doing the exact same sea route independently means booking a cabin on a comparable expedition vessel (there is no public ferry on this route — the ship is the transport), but you can cut costs dramatically by choosing a triple-share inner cabin on a repositioning or shoulder-season departure, booking direct with the operator, and handling your own Keflavík and Longyearbyen transfers via the Flybus and airport bus. Around the sailings you can add the same Land of Fire and Ice and high-Arctic experiences the tour includes: the Golden Circle, glacier lagoons, Svalbard's tundra trails and the Global Seed Vault, plus a self-guided walk around Ittoqqortoormiit-style Inuit community life. Note: all figures are approximate and polar pricing swings widely by season and cabin class.

Nobody's posted a Mission for Iceland, Greenland & Svalbard yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
