Every northern journey begins with a choice.

In the old sagas, travelers crossed cold seas under long skies, guided by wind, stars, and the quiet courage to meet the unknown. They did not set out only to reach another shore, but to discover what kind of journey would shape them.

The Arctic still asks that question.

Will you choose the freedom of an open path: a roundtrip voyage from Reykjavik, with time to arrive early, stay longer, and let Iceland frame the journey in your own way? Or the quiet ease of a fully arranged expedition deeper into Greenland, where each detail is thoughtfully in place, so you are free to give your full attention to fjords, ice, remote settlements, and the vast stillness of the North?

Cruise the Arctic: Iceland and East Greenland

30 July – 09 August 2026 | Reykjavik → Reykjavik | 10 nights | SH Diana

There is a rare ease to this roundtrip voyage from Reykjavik. You begin and end in Iceland’s quietly creative capital, with the freedom to arrive early, stay longer, and let the wider journey take its own shape.

From Iceland’s Westfjords, the voyage crosses toward East Greenland, where fjords open into vast silence and remote settlements speak to the resilience of life at the edge of the map. This is Arctic discovery at a measured pace: spacious, scenic, and deeply attuned to nature and culture.

 

  • Walk toward Dynjandi waterfall in Iceland’s Westfjords, where water falls in pale veils over dark rock

  • Visit Ittoqqortoormiit, one of Greenland’s most remote Inuit communities

  • Sail through the immense landscapes of Scoresby Sund and Kong Oscar Fjord

  • Join expert-led talks, unhurried sea days, and observation deck moments that bring the Arctic into clearer focus

This is a journey of freedom: a more relaxed Arctic cruise for guests who wish to experience Iceland and East Greenland with space, comfort, and flexibility.

EXPLORE THE VOYAGE

Iceland to Greenland

15 – 27 August 2026 | Reykjavik → Kangerlussuaq | 12 nights | SH Vega

Here, the journey draws you deeper into Greenland. Leaving Reykjavik behind, you cross the North Atlantic toward a coastline carved by ice and stone, where remote settlements stand quietly between sea and sky, and human endurance feels woven into the landscape itself.

Across this voyage, Iceland and Greenland reveal themselves in shifting layers: city streets where heritage meets contemporary life, fjords held in a deep Arctic hush, villages bright against immense horizons, and ice landscapes that seem to move with their own quiet force.

 

  • Begin in Reykjavik with Hallgrímskirkja church and Harpa Concert Hall before sailing north

  • Walk through Nuuk’s historic streets and discover Greenland’s living cultural identity

  • Enter the ice-filled stillness of Skjoldungen and visit the Inuit village of Aappilattoq

  • Witness the UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord in Disko Bay, where glaciers shape a world of sculpted ice

 

Travel with the ease of Cruise Plus, including a pre-cruise hotel, transfers, a charter flight from Kangerlussuaq, and one shore excursion per port

This is a journey of immersion: a deeper expedition for guests who want Greenland to take center stage, with thoughtful arrangements already in place.
