Canadian High Arctic an ultimate adventure

Canadian High Arctic an ultimate adventure

With captivating polar bears, enchanting deep fjords, majestic mountains and incredible glaciers, it is no wonder exploring the Canadian High Arctic by expedition cruising and voyages to the North’s most spectacular regions are becoming the ultimate adventure holiday for Australians.

With the release of Bentours new Expedition Cruising and Voyages 2017 brochure, all this is now possible.

Heading north to the Canadian High Arctic, Bentours will give travelers numerous chances to sight a variety of birdlife and marine wildlife – including polar bear, as well as a stunning landscape of epic mountains, sweeping glaciers and skies that go on forever.

Bentours have also introduced Russian High Arctic travel, including Wrangle Island, to this year’s brochure allowing for more wildlife opportunities for polar bear spotting fanatics as well as breathtaking scenery.

Wrangle Island offers a new kind of polar bear experience as the tundra and wilderness of the island allows for bears to be seen clearly as the rocky terrain provides a stark difference against their white fur.

Marking the 150th year anniversary of Canada’s confederation, 2017 is set to be the year of Canadian High Arctic travel, more so as Bentours are offering a $1,300AUD per person flight rebate on select tours when you book by 31 July 2016.

Explore one of the last great wilderness regions on the planet, Baffin Island, with 12 incredible days on Bentours ‘Baffin Island – High Arctic Jewel’ expedition cruise. Prices starting from $10,990AUD per person twin share, based on twin semi private.

Departing 25 Jul and 5 Aug 2017, explore the east coast of Baffin Island, discovering its deep fjords, soaring mountains, immense glacial systems and the inspiring Inuit communities who call this remote wilderness their home.

For an ideal introduction to small ship expedition cruising in the Canadian High Arctic, Bentours ‘Northwest Passage – High Arctic Wildlife Explorer’, also included in the flight rebate deal, combines the quest for wildlife with a history of Canadian exploration in the Arctic.

These are just a few of the tours on offer from Bentours, who for the past 35 years have been proudly operating innovative expedition cruising and voyages to some of the world’s most spectacular destinations and are confident their new regions will quickly become a favourite for High Arctic travel.
