The Northland hosts extraordinary seasonal wildlife events. Humpback and gray whales make the world’s longest migrations up the Pacific Coast. Grizzlies congregate in the salmon-rich rivers of Alaska and British Columbia. Seabirds nest in massive rookeries in Scotland’s Western Isles while seals bob among drifting icebergs off Greenland's crenellated coast. Our unique itineraries witness such events at intimate range, with interpretation from expert naturalists. You won’t find a more authentic way to experience the most rugged wilderness on the planet!
