Polar cruising

Following the success of its Antarctic cruise programme, Peregrine Adventures is launching Arctic cruises.

Beginning next June, there will be six voyages in the far north, incorporating Scotland, the Faeroe Islands, Iceland, Greenland, the North-west Passage and northern Canada.

All the voyages will be aboard the same ship the company operates in Antarctica. Crises start around $4450 for the Greenland Adventure (seven nights).
