I C E L A N D & GREENLAND

Puffins , Iceland
We are all travelers at heart who crave that tantalizing spark of excitement when stepping into the unfamiliar . Nowhere is that fire better kindled than in the land of ice , where nature demands our full attention . Zodiak beside looming icebergs . Spelunk massive ice caves . Snorkel between tectonic plates . While most consider this landscape as other-worldly , it is pure heaven to film directors and A-list actors who forge through Game-of-Thrones scenery . A golden circle of soul-enriching sites inside the Golden Circle , flights over Gullfoss , Geysir , then immersion beyond Isafjördur . Breath-taking Greenland brings us to the calving Eqi Glacier , the lineage of Erik the Red , and Qaqortoq , the “ White Palace ,” abounding with icebergs , whales and the Lyngmark Glacier . Reality brings us back to Nova Scotia , Newfoundland and New York where carefully crafted land experiences let you explore like a local .
