Arctic Cruises

Escape into a world of pure white and midnight sun with an Arctic cruise.

Without a doubt one of the most unique trips in the world, Arctic cruise ships deliver luxury in the snow covered polar region, showing you the best of the top of the world while you sit in style. Whether you’re interested in spotting arctic wildlife like polar bears on a trip to Greenland and Iceland, or sea kayaking while surrounded by secluded, snowy peaks, you’ll be spoilt for things to do.

With Newmarket Holidays Arctic Cruise tours, your arctic expedition will be smooth sailing, even in the rugged, wild terrain of the far north. You’ll enjoy a whole host of activities, from incredible wildlife sightings on Franz Josef land, to seeing the Northern Lights around the Arctic Circle. Other unmissable highlights include following in the footsteps of famous Arctic explorer Fridtjof Nansen by visiting the dramatic Lofoten Islands, and spotting the beauty hidden on East Greenland. If you’re feeling adventurous, some Arctic expeditions even allow you to see important spots where those who have reached the North Pole camped and prepared for their arduous journeys.
