Itinerary

On our way today we will fly over the immense forests and numerous lakes of Labrador. Iqaluit is located on a south-eastern inlet of Baffin Island and is generally only accessible by air.

Today we will enjoy a Glacier & Iceberg Cruise, sailing past a fascinating variety of floes and icebergs.

On a clear day, the landscape is truly surreal. Hundreds of icebergs surround Ilulissat. They vary in shape from flat- topped hunks to jagged mountain peaks, and vary in size from small doghouses to mega-cruise ships and larger. And that's just the part above the surface! The Ice Fjord, which is close to Hotel Arctic, was included on UNESCO's World

Heritage List at the 28th of The World Heritage Committee in the summer of 2004.

The Ice Fjord contains one of the biggest and most active glaciers in the world. Its 3,000 square kilometre area advances at a rate of 20 metres per day. The glacier "calves" about 10 % of the inland ice that is pressed out into the sea from Greenland, and there is nothing in the whole world that resembles it.

Today we will enjoy a full day of sightseeing, where you will witness Iceland’s most exciting natural attractions: the magnificent Gullfoss Waterfall, the volcanic crater Kerid, the greenhouse village Hveragerdi, and across Gjabakkavegur Pass to the Thingvellir National Park – a unique place of beauty with its interesting geology and history.

Dinner will be at Einar Ben located downtown in one of the oldest trading buildings in Reykjavik.

The palace and gardens illustrate the tastes, interests, and aspirations of successive Habsburg monarchs.
