Cruising in Iceland & Greenland

Cruising in Iceland and Greenland offers a unique opportunity to explore some of the most remote and breathtaking landscapes on Earth. These regions are characterised by dramatic fjords, towering glaciers, and rich cultural histories that date back to the Viking Age. The experience combines natural beauty with adventure, allowing travellers to engage with both the stunning environments and the local cultures. Most cruises begin in Reykjavík, Iceland’s capital, known for its vibrant culture and geothermal energy. This city serves as a gateway to the Arctic, where visitors can enjoy local cuisine, museums, and nightlife before embarking on their journey.

Icelandic Culture

Icelandic culture is deeply rooted in its history and geography, characterised by a rich literary heritage, traditional arts, and a strong sense of community. The country has a high literacy rate, one of the highest in the world, which reflects its emphasis on education and literature. The Icelandic sagas, written during the medieval period, are central to the nation’s literary tradition and provide insight into the lives of early settlers.

Cuisine in Iceland & Greenland 

The North Atlantic Ocean provides a bounty of fish, making it a staple in the Icelandic diet. Commonly consumed fish include cod, haddock, and salmon, which are prepared in various ways—pan-seared, smoked, or used in stews like plokkfiskur (fish stew). Lamb is another cornerstone of the cuisine; Icelandic lamb is known for its unique flavor due to the sheep grazing on wild herbs and grasses.
