Since its first North Pole icebreaker cruise in 2001, Expedition Cruises has been leading expeditions into the Russian Arctic on its chartered icebreakers and expedition cruise ships. Today, our company is the market leader in Arctic-bound adventure tourism. Our team at Expedition Cruises is justifiably proud of our reputation as having assisted to open up Russia's magnificent and awe-inspiring Arctic territories, much of which are still virgin and unexplored.


Expedition Cruises offer our passengers a unique and unforgettable Arctic experience
Travel broadens the mind and widens our horizons or so the old clichй goes. Yet, despite the triteness of this expression, we at Expedition Cruises firmly believe that there is no better way to see the world and experience all that it has to offer than by taking an expedition cruise. Nowhere on Mother Earth can the excitement of a new experience be any greater than by taking a voyage into the Arctic or even beyond, by braving the polar ice cap to reach the North Pole. We say this not just because this region is one of the most remote and extreme on the planet but because sadly it is disappearing at an alarming rate. Since 1980, the polar ice cap has been retreating and along with it the delicate Arctic habitat that is home to some of the most endangered flora and fauna on Earth.


Few places on earth can parallel the remoteness of the far north
Polar bears, arctic foxes, walruses and seals and snow owls are only a few of the species native to this wild, untamed land. A land so varied that it can be covered by ice so white it looks blue or with a carpet of mosses and lichens the colors of which would stir the imagination of even the most seasoned of artists. An expedition voyage to the Arctic or beyond is a sense arousing, heart-opening experience that touches the very soul of all who have ever ventured into this unique domain where beauty, silence, and awe all intermingle to create an image so intense it brands itself into the mind forever. Next port of call - the Arctic!
