Greenland's Northern Lights

East Greenland is one of the most isolated regions on earth. Inhabited by little more than 3,500 people, it is accessible by ship only five months a year. Nowhere on earth can nature's most spectacular light show be better seen than in the autumn and winter skies above Greenland's eastern coast, and this departure offers the best chance to observe the majestic Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights. On this voyage, we visit the remains of Thule camps, the ancestors of the indigenous people of Greenland, enjoy the splendour of 'iceberg alley' as the ship navigates past majestic icebergs, some over 100 metres high, and get a glimpse into the lifestyle of the remote residents of Ittoqqortoormiit, the most northerly community in East Greenland. This tour also offers once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to hike some of the most pristine wilderness on the planet.
