Description

A journey to the Arctic is, for most of us, the adventure of a lifetime. In the planning stages, it's a prospect you research at length and consider from every angle, aiming to experience the remote beauty of the polar regions at their very best. You expect shore excursions in spectacular landscapes and opportunities to see remarkable wildlife. And above all, you want to travel with a team of seasoned professionals in the realm of polar exploration. At Adventure Associates, we understand those aspirations, because they define our company. Since our first journey over 33 years ago, we have led the way in adventure travel, making these wild regions accessible to intrepid travellers who previously could only dream of setting foot there. We are especially proud to offer these amazing icebreaker expeditions by the pioneers in polar icebreaker travel, Quark Expeditions, who are known for many Arctic-travel milestones: the first North Pole expedition by icebreaker for adventure travellers, the first transpolar voyage, the first crossing of Russia's Northeast Passage and the first Arctic circumnavigation - not to mention, at the other end of the globe, the first passenger circumnavigation of Antarctica and the first voyage to the Weddell Sea. Since the 1990's we have pioneered the use of icebreakers to carry travellers deep into the Arctic in safety and comfort. Bringing together international specialists on everything from polar exploration to Arctic birds and marine life, we provide the context and hands-on leadership you need to fully appreciate the Far North. Whether you're exploring a remote shore where no one may have walked before, sighting a whale from a Zodiac or watching your powerful ship plow through pack ice under the midnight sun, you'll discover the High Arctic not as a passing vista, but as an immediate, vital, constantly changing environment - a place where the indescribable mystery of raw nature can still be experienced firsthand. Throughout this website you'll find details of five extraordinary adventures in northern Russia, Canada and Greenland, along with one-of-a-kind voyages to the North Pole. As we continue to develop innovative expeditions to the world's last unexplored corners, we hope you'll join us for one of these unique Arctic experiences.
