Itinerary

Embark on an unforgettable Arctic voyage, beginning in Svalbard and sailing along the ice's edge to Greenland. Keep a vigilant eye on the horizon for unique wildlife as you navigate south. This journey offers multiple ways to explore the remote landscape—by ship, on foot, and via Zodiac—showcasing the striking contrasts and changes of the Arctic before concluding in Iceland, "the Land of Fire and Ice." Highlights include visits to an Inuit village, sightings of distinct wildlife, and the exploration of truly remote destinations. Plus, the incredible added wonder of experiencing a partial or even total solar eclipse against the vast, icy backdrop, turning an already spectacular view into an unparalleled cosmic event.

Guillia put a great self-drive tour together for us and Susana looked after us as we travelled. (Even when we got lost) The car and accommodation was good and the guides patient and informative. Only issue we had was parking in small villages, garages, and cities. Apart from the parking we had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday, thank you.
