Book your Luxury Expedition Cruise to the Arctic
Luxury Arctic Cruises
Luxury Arctic Travel
A geological wonderland of fire, ice and color, the Arctic reveals the rarest of wild beauties. Many come in search of the polar bear, a magnificent predator, relentless in its ability to adapt in a dramatically changing environment. Though any visitor who sets foot in the Arctic — and especially those who have seen Antarctica — are fast amazed by its brilliant dichotomy of flora. Our Luxury Expedition Cruises to the Far North take you to the heart of it all in absolute comfort and style.
Join our award-winning Expedition Team as you follow in the footsteps of some of the greatest explorers of all time, including Erik the Red and Roald Amundsen. Look forward to learning about these legends while discovering the Arctic’s timeless communities, geological wonders — from blue glaciers to smoking hills — and a stunning wildlife that is home to tufted musk oxen, colorful puffins, and even the rare narwhal.
VIDEO: Meet the Accomplished Explorers Joining You in the Arctic
In 1991, A&K embarked on our first expedition cruise, going where few dared to go and only with the most remarkable experts at sea. Thirty years later, we filmed this feature video to introduce you to our award-winning Expedition Team and offer a glimpse of the adventures to be had on an A&K Luxury Expedition Cruise.
Why Cruise with A&K?

Cruising since 1991, A&K voyages boast an unmatched expertise. See it firsthand alongside our award-winning Expedition Team, a cast of seasoned academics, photographers, and real-life explorers, each with an average of 15 years of experience sailing with A&K.
Cruise on a Luxury Expedition Ship
