Begin your journey at Constable Point, the historic base for Greenland’s pioneering explorers like Paul Emile Victor and Jean-Baptiste Charcot. From there, sail into the wild Scoresby Sund fjord, renowned for its spectacular cathedral icebergs. As you navigate these icy waters, you’ll enter the domain of the Eastern Inuits, a nomadic community who’ll share with you their traditions and stories.
AN (A)TYPICAL DAY ON BOARD
No two days aboard Selar ships are ever the same. Picture this: you wake up to a cheerful call, followed by a hearty breakfast to kickstart your day. Gear up for thrilling outdoor adventures, carefully planned the night before. Imagine a midday feast in the heart of the wilderness, another awe-inspiring escapade in the afternoon, and then a return to the ship. Here, you can cozy up and warm yourself before an evening filled with laughter, stories, and connections.

- 3 meals a day
- Wine, beer, non alcoholic beverages during meals and hot beverages
- Transfer from the airport

WIFI NOT SO MUCH INCLUDED
Disconnection is our priority to immerse you in the Arctic wildlife and make you live the adventure of your life.
Internet will only be available in a secluded part of the ship to keep the common areas off the grid, connected solely by human interactions.
We suggest to use telegrams once a day (or less) that the crew will send for you to your loved ones.
Transport advices
The departure of the expedition is in Constable point, located in the east of Greenland. Yet the meeting point of this adventure is in Akureyri airport.
Please note the flight from Akureyri to Nerlit inaat (Constable point) is included in the price and arranged by Selar as it is a really tiny airport (adventure has already started!)
We recommend you to travel with Icelandair to Akureyri and arrive the day of departure. You can also reach Akureyri from Reykjavik by bus, meaning 6 hours of a beautiful road by day (or by night)
Our partner agency will reach out to you after your booking to offer assistance with your flights or bus.
