Iceland & East Greenland

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Iceland and East Greenland together form one of the most dramatic expedition corridors in the North Atlantic, combining volcanic landscapes with polar wilderness. Iceland is renowned for its geysers, waterfalls, black-sand beaches, hot springs, and the chance to witness the Northern Lights, while its capital Reykjavík serves as a vibrant hub for exploring the iconic Ring Road. East Greenland, by contrast, is one of the world's most remote and sparsely populated coastlines, drawing adventurous travellers with its towering fjords, calving glaciers, iceberg-filled seas, and encounters with Arctic wildlife including polar bears and musk oxen. Together, they appeal to expedition-minded travellers seeking raw nature, extreme landscapes, and off-the-beaten-path Arctic exploration.

Self-Launched Iceland & East Greenland Arctic Adventure

This self-launched equivalent of Exodus's 'Under the Northern Lights' expedition swaps the all-inclusive polar cruise ship for a mix of independent Reykjavik exploration, a budget Westfjords road trip, and a self-booked small-ship Greenland expedition cruise — the most cost-effective way to experience East Greenland's Scoresby Sund without a premium tour operator markup. Note: East Greenland is one of the world's most remote destinations; fully independent travel to Scoresby Sund is not possible without some form of organised vessel. This itinerary uses a self-booked budget expedition cruise (third-party operator, booked directly) combined with independent days in Iceland to cut costs significantly. All cost estimates are approximate and per person.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Iceland & East Greenland yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Find the most locally-hated tourist trap and go anyway, unironically, in a costume."
