Adventure Activities
Quark Expeditions offers a full range of adventure activities (some included in the cost of your trip, and some which cost extra) to suit every type of traveler regardless of experience. Please visit the relevant itinerary page on our web site to see what’s included in your voyage.
Flightseeing Enjoy a bird’s-eye view of the Arctic—icebergs, glaciers, snow- capped peaks, expansive waterways, fjords—while seated comfortably in one of Ultramarine ’s two twin-engine helicopters. Looking down upon the magnificent Arctic wilderness will give you a unique perspective of the polar environment. *Select departures.
Zodiac Cruising These polar-sturdy, reinforced rubber skiffs whisk you safely from the ship to the remote shorelines and back, taking you into the shallow waters that the ship can’t reach. Touring around by Zodiac while looking out for wildlife is an intimate and relaxing way of exploring the Arctic bays and inlets.
Heli-Hiking Helicopters will transfer you to the start of the most scenic hiking routes of Southern Greenland and then pick you up at the end point of the route. Each heli-hiking departure will be tailored to your personal needs and level of interests. *Select departures.
Exclusive Heli-Landing You’ll be transported in small groups on Ultramarine ’s two twin- engine helicopters to landing sites only accessible by air. Expect stunning aerial views from your seat in the helicopter—and yet more incredible polar vistas once you land: glaciers, icebergs, remote landscapes, wildlife and more. *Select departures.
Ice Sheet Experience Ascend high above the cascading coastal glaciers onto the immense polar plateau of the Greenland Ice Sheet and take in the immensity of this overwhelming landscape. An excursion on one of Ultramarine ’s helicopters means you’ll enjoy polar views very few others have ever experienced. *Select departures.
Greenland Camp Experience Join local hosts at Tasermiut Camp for a night at one of the most exclusive camps in Greenland. Enjoy an intimate small-group walk through the beautiful Greenlandic landscapes with a local chef who will identify fresh ingredients, after which you and your fellow guests will prepare an incredible meal together. *Greenland Explorer voyages only. No experience required.
