Discover 11-14 day Greenland trips
Sail along Greenland’s wild coasts, with epic ice and expert-led shore time.
Greenland trips of 11-14 days suit travelers who want a genuine Arctic voyage without committing to a very long expedition. These sail & cruise journeys lean into dramatic coastlines and deep fjords, and they offer repeated, close-up perspectives on ice—both from the ship and during carefully managed shore landings that make the scenery feel immediate. Days are shaped by weather and sea ice, so even well-designed itineraries can change at short notice, sometimes within the same day. Along the way, there are opportunities to look for wildlife, join talks and briefings from the expedition team, and enjoy quieter time on deck as the coastline gradually shifts. Many departures begin in Reykjavik before crossing to Greenland, then spend several days exploring, with Zodiac operations used when conditions allow safe access to beaches, landing sites and sheltered bays.

Well organised, fantastic food and amazing destinations. Your "chat box" I found to be most unhelpful. I asked if there was a chance of cabin upgrade - without a delay was told boat was full and will need to speak to people on boat when I got there. Strange. I contacted direct and they said it was possible
