Only a discerning few can experience the wonder of the extreme northern and southern latitudes aboard a polar–class icebreaker. Each expedition is led by an elite team of seasoned professionals in marine biology, ornithology, polar history and seamanship.

Crash through pack ice to the top of the world. Watch in awe as adult Emperor Penguins toboggan across sea ice to their rookery far from land. Fly to seldom–visited wilderness areas in our onboard helicopters. Zip in one of our fleet of Zodiacs past craggy cliffs where seabirds nest.

The polar regions are home to dozens of species that are found nowhere else: polar bears, walrus, penguins, narwhal and fish with natural anti–freeze flowing through their veins. You haven’t seen the world, if you haven’t been to the polar regions.
