Exploring the Garden of Greenland (Eastbound)

11-day all-inclusive Greenland expedition cruise from New York to Reykjavík

Discover the lushest landscapes of Greenland in late summer, when the tundra briefly flares red and gold and glaciers calve at their most dramatic.

Visit Viking-age Norse ruins and Thule sites, and experience daily Greenlandic life in places like Qaqortoq, a colourful town tucked into the fjords.

Explore expedition-style in the southern fjord systems, landing where conditions allow among rugged cliffs and pristine Arctic scenery.

Autumn fire and dramatic ice

Sail South Greenland's fjords in late summer, when the tundra blazes red and gold, glaciers calve with peak intensity, and whales feed in the nutrient-rich waters. With a focused route along the southwest coast, we spend multiple days exploring expedition-style, landing among autumn colour, dramatic cliff faces and landscapes at their most vivid.

Viking ruins and living culture

Step ashore at Viking-age Norse ruins and ancient Thule heritage sites, then wander the colourful streets of Qaqortoq, where Greenlandic traditions and community life endure in a town framed by fjords. This is the greenest corner of Greenland, and in late summer it's at its most alive.
