Dates are selling out...!

Walking close to Tasiilaq in East Greenland

We´been busy booking trips next season and many dates are sold out. Dates in April, June and July are almost full, so you better act fast if you want to get a space in 2008 season. Here are some information about the trips available in Iceland and Greenland.

2008110: 2-7 June: Wildlife and walking trip in Hornstrandir Nature Reserve.
The wildlife trips are perfect for those who want to experience the wildlife when all the birds are nesting, the Arctic fox cubs are coming out of their dens and the nature is coming alive after the long subarctic winter.

2008210: 25 - 30 August: Easy sea kayaking and walking trip in Hornstrandir Nature Reserve.
In late August, the flora is at its peak and the rivers and deltas are full of arctic char (trout) that tastes great.

Both those dates can be changed into a different theme with more emphasis on sailing, hiking, general exploration etc if groups want.

The backcountry skiing dates available are:

2008080: 12-17 May
2008090: 18-24 May
2008100: 26-31 May

This is the perfect time for skiing with soft spring snow. There is always plenty of snow. We were skiing in fresh 50-100 cm on the 26th of May in Glacier Fjords last season.

We also have seats available 31-5 April (6 seats) and 14-19 April (8 seats). Thank you all for your great interest in the exciting adventures that we offer in Iceland, Greenland and Jan Mayen.

Our Adventures

General Information

Miscellaneous

Welcome to the website for Borea Adventures, Iceland, your number one stop for Arctic adventures in high latitudes. We provide great adventures and expeditions in Iceland, Greenland, East Greenland, Jan Mayen and Svalbard (Spitzbergen), mainly using our spacious yacht, the Aurora. Our philosophy is to make our trips as silent as possible where we minimize the use of motorized power and encourage physical activities, whether sea kayaking, climbing, sailing, walking and hiking, wildlife, ski touring and backcountry skiing for beginners, experts and people of all ages. The North Atlantic is our playground and we offer scheduled trips for individuals and groups as well as customized itineraries and charter for groups. We travel in harmony with the wildlife of the area: Arctic Foxes, Birds, Seals, Whales and Polar Bears. Aurora is a sturdy expedition yacht and was raced four times around the globe as part of the Clipper Round the World yacht race under the ownership of Sir Robin Knox-Johnston. She gives us a great opportunity to provide Arctic adventures in areas that are hard to reach otherwise. We call her our floating basecamp. Our name is derived from Greek mythology where Boreas was the god of the north wind. Aurora on the other hand was the Roman rosy-fingered goddess of dawn. Aurora Borealis is a name for the Northern lights which are common in our area. As we humans have proven through the decades, names can be hard to remember. Especially if a bit of alcohol gets passed around the galley too many times! You might spell our name Boreal Adventures, Borial Adventures, Borea Adventrues and Borealis Adventures. Thank you for visiting Borea Adventures.
