Quark Expeditions' guests traveled by a private charter flight from Reykjavik, 
Iceland, to the small village of Narsarsuaq, nestled in the deep fjord of 
Tunulliarfik in South Greenland. From there, they departed on Ultramarine for 
an epic expedition exploring the mountains, alpine lakes, ice masses and fjords 
of South Greenland.

Quark Expeditions' guests are currently navigating the majestic fjords that 
dominate the southern and southeastern coasts of Greenland on Ultramarine. The 
game-changing vessel—equipped with two twin-engine helicopters and 20 
quick-deploy Zodiacs—is designed to give unprecedented access to the 
hardest-to-reach places in the Polar Regions. Access to these remote wilderness 
sites is made possible through partnerships with local Greenlanders.

Greenland Adventure: Explore by Sea, Land and Air offers guests a truly 
ultra-immersive destination experience. In addition to sea kayaking, Zodiac 
cruising, shore landings and guided walks, intrepid guests also have the 
opportunity to experience a diverse selection of heli-supported activities, 
such heli-landing on the Greenland Ice Sheet, heli-hiking, heli-mountain 
biking, helicopter-supported alpine lake kayaking, and overnight camping along 
the picturesque Tasermiut Fjord. 

This epic Greenland expedition marks one of numerous milestones for Quark 
Expeditions in recent months. In addition to launching the purpose-built 
Ultramarine, the seasoned team at Quark Expeditions has developed new 
itineraries, a first-ever Inuit culinary experience (available in Greenland and 
the Canadian High Arctic), as well as a portfolio of heli-supported adventures.

"Our Greenland Adventure: Explore by Sea, Land and Air is the first itinerary 
in history to be developed in full partnership with local community members and 
businesses in Greenland, from conception to execution," said Alex McNeil, 
Director of Expedition Experience and Innovation for Quark Expeditions. "The 
culture and expertise of the people of South Greenland have been woven into 
these voyages. Ultramarine's twin-engine helicopters now transport guests to 
remote locations for unique adventure options—something no other operator can 
provide. Aligned with our Polar Promise strategy, all of these 
activities—geared to travelers of all ages and levels of fitness—are developed 
sustainably with our local partners."
