“Now the ‘circle’ is complete” commented Don Forster, Product and Marketing Manager of ADVENTURESIncorporated. “We are always looking for new destinations and options for our adventure-minded clients and are now offering trips across both polar circles. Our new Arctic departures start in June 2008 not only round out our Polar offerings but they also offer another choice of destination for our returning clients.” continued Forster.
The Arctic differs from the southern polar region geologically, biologically and politically. They are, pun intended, polar opposites. For centuries humans searched for the Northwest Passage, the elusive route to the Orient, and many died trying. For five hundred years, the Northeast Passage, from Russia’s Far East to Scandinavia, drew adventurers from safe harbours into the great unknown, in search of fortune and fame.
The quest to reach the North Pole was equally as tragic and prolonged as the quests for northern trade routes. The controversial feat was accomplished less than a hundred years ago; reaching the top of the world is still a relatively rare occurrence in the 21st century.
Now these journeys can be undertaken in safety and comfort and those wishing to retrace the early explores have a number of options available.
The Northeast Passage 25 Days Anchorage to Helsinki from $24,700 USD.
Arctic Islands 17 Days Helsinki to Helsinki from $15,500 USD.
Arctic Quest 18 Days Ottawa to Ottawa from $14,500 USD.
