Exciting, exhilarating, memorable -- welcome to Expedition Experiences by Seabourn. Zodiac, kayaking or hiking activities enable you to experience the wonders of nature up close; in-depth cultural, ethnographic and archaeological discoveries connect you to the human and natural history of Seabourn's world. Each Expedition is expertly planned, professionally operated, and escorted by skilled expedition staff.
Join the Expedition Team to explore the incredible fjord of Prins Christain Sund by Zodiac. Moving alongside and away from the ship through this fjord is a rare opportunity that will be available only to a handful of guests who book early. Entering the steep-sided waterway, you are surrounded by high mountain faces and scoured rock massifs. The narrow sound is 60 miles long. Around each corner lies a surprise -- sometimes a glacier ending at the water's edge, other times a waterfall of rushing meltwater. Icebergs often languish in places and, where the route narrows and bends back on itself there are lower rock-strewn terraces used by Inuit hunters to camp while working at the ice edge in the winter months. Shafts of sunlight visually bring the whole landscape to life; cloud cover reminds you that life can be tough in these latitudes. What you see depends on the conditions of the day and where the Zodiac is launched.
