via Simpson Strait
Departures: August 25, 2008 to September 6, 2008
Rate Range: $4,200 to $8,400
During this 13-day Active Adventure through a portion of the Northwest Passage, we attempt to transit Simpson Strait. The shallow draft of the Adventure Ship may make it possible to recreate a portion of Amundsen’s route that ships with deeper drafts cannot. En route from Resolute to Cambridge Bay, an optional adventure will be offered – kayaking.
Please note this expedition is operated in reverse on the second departure.
