Arctic Wonderland 2012
Adventure Associates are delighted to offer the new 2012 program of adventures on top of the world aboard a range of ice-strengthened vessels.
The Arctic - a huge frozen ocean surrounded by wild and beautiful land - is one of the last frontiers on earth. Few people have travelled to this pristine wilderness and explored its remote seas and coastal areas by ship.
Passengers will experience a range of wildlife including polar bears, musk ox, walrus, ringed seals, bearded seals, belugas, narwhal, killer whales, bowhead whales, wildfowl, waders and seabirds are just some of the animals that take advantage of the brief abundance of food in the otherworldly landscapes of the far north. The region is also home to the Innuit, people who, against all the odds, have thrived and developed some of the hardiest societies on the planet.
We have contrasting adventures planned for 2012 travelling through the Arctic regions and expedition highlights include:
- Experience viewing a vast array of wildlife
- Witnessing superb scenery of glaciers, mountains and quiet fjords
- Extraordinary spectacle of crowded seabird cliffs
- Exploring archeological sites, as well as historic sites of early Arctic exploration
- Encounter traditional cultures of the remote Arctic communities
- Learn about the Arctic from our outstanding team of naturalists and other experts onboard
- Enjoy your adventure onboard a vessel with comfortable accommodations and excellent cuisine
- Explore these amazing natural areas in the company of like-minded travellers
