East Greenland & Iceland from/to Reykjavík
From Reykjavík this fifteen-night round trip crosses the Denmark Strait to the fjords of East Greenland and returns via the Westfjords of Iceland. The Silver Endeavour, carrying 200 guests and rated to PC6 polar class, is one of the most ice-capable expedition ships in the fleet, with a helideck and a Zodiac fleet for landings in remote bays. Scoresby Sound, Kaiser Franz Joseph Fjord and King Oscar Fjord form the heart of the route, complemented by Ísafjörður in northern Iceland. Butler service in every suite and the seasoned expedition team round out the premium character.
Route highlights
- Reykjavík: Iceland's departure and return harbour, with Hallgrímskirkja, Harpa and the geothermal Reykjanes peninsula on the doorstep.
- Scoresby Sound: the largest fjord system on Earth, with calving tidewater glaciers and tabular icebergs.
