Aurora Expeditions has announced a new itinerary designed to explore Greenland’s northernmost tip.

Its purpose-built ship, The Greg Mortimer (pictured), will depart Reykjavik, Iceland on its 14-day East Greenland Explorer on 15 August 2023, sailing through Germania Land and on to Kronprins Christian Land in Northeast Greenland, a location not frequented by many expedition cruises.

The Australian-owned company with more than 32 years of history of purpose-driven exploration, prides itself on pushing the boundaries of discovery to provide immersive experiences for its expedition cruisers while maintaining a light footprint.
