Overview
Arctic Express Canada: The Heart of the Northwest Passage
The quest for trade routes to the Far East inspired much of the age of exploration of North America, with the promise of the Northwest Passage its elusive jewel. On Arctic Express Canada: The Heart of the Northwest Passage , discover the great sea route at the top of the world—that obsessed explorers for centuries—on our game-changing new expedition ship Ultramarine , which allows you a journey no traditional vessel could offer: immersing you in the full Arctic experience while getting back home a week and a half later. Nature and wildlife are the guides on this voyage as you explore the region’s diverse treasures. This unique voyage invites guests to embrace a true expeditionary spirit: rather than follow a set itinerary, together we’ll allow our search for wildlife and cultural connections to determine our route and shore landings. The Arctic’s stark beauty offers an unforgettable backdrop, while Quark Expeditions’ world- class team provides the knowledge and insight to help you connect with the region’s geography, and unique history of the Inuit who’ve long made their homes here. Ultramarine ’s two twin-engine helicopters, 20-quick-launching Zodiacs and unprecedented mix of on-ship amenities and off-ship Adventure Options will deliver an unrivaled Arctic experience no other vessel can.
