Quark Expeditions features ships that will have a big impact on your Polar travel experience. The fleet is comprised of small expedition ships to authentic icebreakers, and Quark is proud to offer the largest fleet of polar-class vessels in the industry. All of their ships carry no more than 200 passengers, and in true expeditionary spirit, are nimble enough to take you wherever the adventure unfolds, taking you safely and comfortably to the most isolated and breathtaking wildernesses on the planet—the Arctic and Antarctic. These expeditions and discoveries will transform you more than might ever imagine!
Quark began their polar expeditions and discoveries in 1991 and ever since it's been in their DNA to push and go further. This desire has brought more explorers to more places one can’t easily get to alone, for more than a quarter of a century.
Polar adventures require additional planning and expertise, beyond what you might expect in tropical climates and environments. There is no substitute for the expertise that Quark's experience provides, which is highly sought after. Quark helped set numerous industry standards for safety. That’s the confidence you’ll feel on every Quark expedition.
Quark's staff effortlessly shares their knowledge with the enthusiasm of doing so for the first time resulting in deep, personal connections and enrichment at every turn.
A polar trip is something that many people experience only once in a lifetime, so it has to be perfect every time. This is why Quark profoundly appreciates the details, and why they sweat the small stuff.
Nature is in constant motion, and no expedition company appreciates this more than Quark. Trying harder is tough work, but they show you something others can’t, which makes it all worthwhile for every guest who treks on an expedition with Quark.
Traveling to remote regions requires a profound understanding of risk versus reward and Quark didn’t read the book on Polar Region safety— they authored it. Since 1991, and Quark's first-ever tourism transit of the Northeast Passage, Quark Expeditions has been blazing trails in Polar adventure travel, and our travel agency is proud to partner together with Quark Expeditions to bring you to these amazing regions of the world.
