Why Travel to the High Canadian Arctic with Quark Expeditions
The vast Canadian High Arctic is an unexplored domain of endless glaciers, mountains, tundra, and towering granite cliffs. It is home to a variety of iconic wildlife, such as muskox, beluga, and polar bear.
To truly explore this Arctic wilderness, you need to travel with an operator that will take you deeper into the region than anyone else.
At Quark Expeditions, we go where others simply can’t. Our guests experience the Canadian High Arctic by water, land, and air – thanks to Ultramarine’s two twin-engine helicopters.
This is home to Inuit people who’ve hunted, fished, nurtured their cultural traditions, and co-existed with the wildlife for thousands of years. Traveling here allows guests to witness how the Inuit preserve their way of life.
We work closely with local partners to ensure the best experiences for our guests—and the Indigenous people who invite us to their homes.
Our Cultural Education program enables you to immerse yourself in Inuit culture and traditions.
Our expedition team – the best in the industry – will guide you on a journey that you will never forget.
History is brought to life as you explore the same landscapes and waterways of legendary explorers who navigated the fabled Northwest Passage.
Join us on the journey of a lifetime. Experience the boundless beauty and intrigue of the Canadian High Arctic.

Quark Expeditions ULTRAMARINE Ship Tour - Full Review Video and Walkthrough in the Arctic
We spent a month travelling on Quark Expeditions' newest polar exploration ship, the MV Ultramarine in the Arctic and were blown away by this incredible small group luxury ship. We decided to do a full self-guided tour to bring you this Quark Ultramarine review video so you can see just what life is like onboard.
Our goal is to show you every aspect of this beautiful vessel from a passengers' perspective so you know exactly what to expect if you ever have the chance to travel on Quark Expeditions' Ultramarine.
From every different type of cabin, including the solo rooms, balcony suites and even the penthouse, we got an inside-look at every deck guests can stay on. We also dive deep into the Ambassador Theatre, the Panorama Lounge, the Balena Restaurant, the gym, the Tundra Spa and the polar boutique.
Of course one of the big draw cards is the helicopter operations on the Ultramarine. Quark has two Airbus H145 helicopters onboard the Ultramarine, allowing guests to get to never-before-accessed terrain and see the polar regions from the air. We show how it all works.
Another big part of any adventure to Antarctica or the Arctic are the zodiac excursions, and the Ultramarine has a fantastic system to deploy zodiacs on all sides. Curious how they get the zodiacs off or how to board a zodiac at sea? Come find out.
We hope you enjoy our full Quark Ultramarine ship tour video, and that it answers any questions you may have about what it's like to travel on this ship. If you have any questions let us know in the comments.

Why Travel to Greenland with Quark Expeditions
For the last 23 years, our team has been on never-ending quest to discover the most unique guest experiences in the deep fjords, remote coasts, alpine lakes, snow-capped mountains and ice-covered landscapes of Greenland. It’s our pleasure to showcase the best of Greenland and the many different ways you can explore it with Quark Expeditions.
Encounter a mix of Ancient and Contemporary Cultures as you explore Norse ruins and Viking ruins, and experience contemporary Greenland through community visits, cultural festivals and food.
Equally mesmerizing are the monumental ice forms: the Greenland Ice Sheet—which you can visit by helicopter—towering icebergs, and alpine glaciers high up in the mountains.
Expect surreal landscapes beyond anything you ever imagined: 2,000-metre rock faces, a 70-km steep-walled fjord, and geological formations that look like abstract art.
Plus, spell-binding light unseen anywhere else: the multi-colored Northern Lights, icebergs illuminated from within, moonlit ice, and sunrises and sunsets that steal your breath away.
Explore Greenland: It will forever change your view of the Arctic!
