As Canada's northernmost region, Nunavut is about as close as you can get on land to the geographic North Pole. Here, isolated from the rest of the world, you will encounter polar bears, narwahls, and remote Inuit villages that have managed to preserve their culture for millenia. Cruises & tours to Nunavut explore Baffin Island and some venture through the Nortwest Passage. We feature itineraries both on land and by cruise from a selection of boats and lodges that we have chosen for their accommodations and the activities they offer. Expeditions have a variety of activities, like scuba diving, glacier trekking, whale watching, snowmobiling & kayaking to immerse you in the culture of Arctic villages like Iqaluit that can only be accessed by plane or boat. Contact us to get started planning your trip to the Arctic.
