07.11.27 - Try a cruise along the coast of West Greenland with Clipper Adventurer

Albatros Travel presents a fantastic cruise in Greenland aboard the Clipper Adventurer. Visit Kangerlussuaq, Sisimiut, Ilulissat, Uummannaq, the Eqi Glacier, Disko Island and Itilleq. The 9-day/7-night cruises with English-speaking tour guides will take place during the summer of 2008.

Travelling by ship is the best way to experience Greenland’s nature and culture, as neither infrastructure nor roads exist inland. It is therefore fortunate that the wonderful scenery lines the most important means of transportation— the sea. On this cruise you will experience Greenland’s nature at its best - at the point at which the land and mountains meet the cold ocean currents teeming with fish.

Clipper Adventurer

Greenlanders live in towns along the coast. Usually every town and every village clings dramatically to its rocky foundation. The small colourful houses appear to crawl up the mountainsides sheltered by a promontory, on a foreland in the fjord or in a narrow valley between steep mountains — culturally and architecturally enriched and bounded by nature.

Walking past the town limits you will most likely be on your own after only a few minutes, surrounded by one of the world’s largest and most pristine wildernesses.

This is a cruise filled with exceptional experiences of nature and culture — all accessible by the most relaxing means of transport available. The ship sails leisurely along the coastline and down spectacular branching fjords, calling at serene towns and villages as we go.

Albatros’ cruise and expedition leaders will assess the prevailing conditions and, in collaboration with the captain, lay down the route for each day. The travel company has chosen a very versatile and interesting route calling at Disko Bay and sailing along Greenland’s breathtaking west coast. Read more at www.go2greenland.com
