Heart of the Arctic

Date: September 16-26, 2009 (11 days)

Kangerlussuaq, Greenland to Kuujjuaq, Quebec
Vessel: 120 Passenger Clipper Adventurer
Our northern journey begins in Greenland as we sail up the Kangerlussuaq Fiord, the
longest in West Greenland. This program will largely focus on the culture and arts of the
Inuit of Greenland, Nunavut and Nunavik. An increasingly popular art form, the
sculpture, prints and weaving of the Inuit can’t help draw on the inspiration of their
glorious surroundings. Not only will we have the great privilege of visiting many
hamlets, we will witness the spectacular landscapes dominate life in the north. In many of
the hamlets we will take part in demonstrations and meet with community leaders and
artists.

The Clipper Adventurer

The 122-passenger Adventurer, among the very few vessels in the world specifically
constructed for expedition voyages to the far reaches of this remote land. Her ice-
strengthened hull permits her to glide easily and safely through ice-strewn waters that are
not accessible to conventional cruise vessels. She has advanced communications and
navigation equipment, and newly installed, state-of-the-art Sperry Gyrofin stabilizers.

In 1999 the Adventurer had a $13 million conversion done in Scandinavia. She is a
handsome expedition vessel, done in the style of great ocean liners when ships were
ships. She features lots of varnished wood, brass, and wooden decks, the ship has all new
outside cabins, with lower beds and private facilities. There is a Main Lounge, bar,
Clipper Club, library/card room, gymnasium, sauna, gift shop, and beauty salon. The
dining room features North
American and Continental cuisine.
The ship has a fleet of 10 Zodiacs
and a special loading platform. An
ice class rating of A-1 allows the
Clipper Adventurer access to places
