"Being able to develop this itinerary in full collaboration with local partners in Greenland ensures our guests can enjoy truly authentic experiences no one else can provide, such as Tundra to Table: Inuit Culinary Experience and Greenland Camping along the Tasermiut Fjord," said Josh Weidman, Director of Product for Quark Expeditions. "The other gems in this new itinerary are Ultramarine's two twin-engine helicopters, which enable our expedition team to take guests to areas in South Greenland no one else can where they'll choose from the most robust portfolio of off-ship adventures in the Arctic. It's our long-standing partnerships with local Greenlanders, and our dedicated expedition team—the best in the industry—that make us the experts in Greenland adventure."
