Onboard onto Le Lyrial for an exquisite journey

Embark on an expedition cruise to Greenland, following in the footsteps of the Vikings, the very first polar explorers. As you travel from east to west, from one port of call to the next, you will discover the spectacular landscapes of these wild lands, from icebergs casting blue-tinged reflections on the horizon to majestic fjords, snow-capped mountains, rocky cliffs and waterfalls... The absolute highlight of the trip will be navigating Disko Bay amongst the largest icebergs in the Northern Hemisphere. During your journey, you will undoubtedly have the opportunity to observe marine mammals and a variety of bird species.

We are privileged guests in these remote lands where we are at the mercy of weather, ice, tidal and current conditions. Landings on certain sites and the observation of certain wildlife cannot be guaranteed. They vary from day to day, making each PONANT cruise a unique experience. The Captain and the Expedition Leader will make every effort to ensure that your experience is as rich as possible, while complying with the safety rules and instructions imposed by the AECO.
