A land larger than life
Things don’t get much greater than the Rocky Mountains, which tower over northwestern America. As you’ll discover, everything in this part of the world is monumental in scale.
Wind your way through the Rocky Mountains by train, admiring local wildlife and the immense firs that grace the route, before venturing into Alaska’s mighty fjords. This is a part of the world that’s as vast as it is beautiful. Gigantic glaciers, expansive plains, peaks that will take your breath away and predators that inspire awe – there’s nothing small about the great American North, or about the impression it will leave on you.

CruiseUnlocking the Northwest Passage
21 Days Copenhagen > Anchorage NEW
In the footsteps of great explorers
Follow in the footsteps of the early Arctic explorers Franklin, Amundsen and Larsen, as you discover one of the world’s last frontiers, the famous Northwest Passage.
Cruising the Northwest Passage is unlike any other. A passage cruised only by a few, an experience where you encounter remote fjords, glaciers, harbors and uninhabited islands that dot the archipelago of Canada’s High Arctic. Start in Greenland, home to mighty icebergs and calving glaciers, before cruising to the remote islands of Canada. See the contrast of the largest uninhabited island on the planet, a barren land with similar conditions to the planet of Mars. Continue through the famed Northwest Passage with Scenic Eclipse, as your experienced Captains navigate you delicately through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Our expert Discovery Team will guide you throughout your voyage, designing each day and sharing their knowledge of the flora, fauna and history of these spectacular destinations. Marvel at the pristine landscapes that are worlds away from modern civilisation.
