True North
Hours: 7am to 5pm Monday to Friday
An adventure aboard the multi-awarded TRUE NORTH is not just another expedition-cruise! We curate activity-based itineraries that are designed to satisfy the world’s most discerning travellers. We specifically exclude sea-days and feature unparalleled access to stunning coastal environments and, unequalled opportunity to truly experience the destination. Our itineraries are intended to be life changing and our guests often remark “that is the best holiday that I have ever had!” The TRUE NORTH is purpose-built to access wilderness areas — big ships cannot go where we go! Multiple adventure boats take guests away in small groups to experience wilderness up-close and the luxury of numerous tenders also means that guests have greater opportunity to do “what they want, when they want”! And, to add another dimension to adventure, most itineraries feature an onboard helicopter. Daily activities can include snorkelling, diving, fishing, hiking, picnics, natural history, cultural activities and scenic helicopter flights.
