Trip Summary
Explore the Majestic Wilderness of Scoresby Sund with 12 Guests
MV Vikingfjord is ready to take you on an enchanting adventure to East Greenland on an Expedition Micro Cruise. You’ll thoroughly explore the magical Scoreby Sund fjord system with a small, intimate group of just 12 like-minded companions aboard the ship. The expedition will begin with a private charter flight from Iceland to Constable Point, East Greenland. There your little red ship awaits, the newly refitted Vikingfjord, the best true expedition ship for 12 guests you will ever run across. Embark on an unforgettable journey to the frosted waterways of East Greenland, one of the most remote places you can possibly access by ship only. You’ll explore the stunning Scoresby Sund fjord system with just twelve guests aboard MV Vikingfjord. The expedition commences with a private charter flight from Iceland to East Greenland.
Witness the majestic icebergs as they tower high above your Zodiac that will convey you through these untouched landscapes. Sailed through the narrow fjords, steep and dark frowning cliffs honed from eons of glaciation. With two experts to guide you, you’ll have the chance to go ashore, making landings and feel fully immersed within this pristine wild place unlike any other on our planet. During the month of September into October, you’ll have the chance to witness the Northern Lights (weather permitting) during the 2024 year of the Aurora. Sun activity has caused the dancing lights in the polar skies to be particularly vivid. If Northern Lights of the most rich colors imaginable is on your bucket list, this is the year and the place to see them.
Secret Atlas is led by explorers and made just for people like you with the spirit of adventure. Every expedition is unique due to the prevailing winds, weather and season. Our days are planned but still we never follow a fixed itinerary because we believe that the best expeditions should follow opportunities that the wilderness offers.
Our expert guides know exactly how to maximise your adventure travel experience.
2024 / 2025 Season
