An Extraordinary Adventure In The Canadian Arctic

You asked, we delivered. For over 25 years, Adventures Abroad has been taking groups to countries all over the world. But what about those exotic and hard to reach locations within our homelands?

Standing at the edge of the ice floe near the northern tip of Baffin Island. What a wonderful experience, and an amazing place to get to visit.

  Each year we update our tours to keep destinations fresh, and often we'll prepare private or one-off tours to unique locations. In 2015, one of these unique tours was to the Canadian Arctic with Martin Charlton. Below are some of his extraordinary highlights, as documented on his Instagram. Thank you for sharing Martin!

Last week we found this mini ice-cave as we crossed the frozen landscape from Pond Inlet to Bylot Island. It was something truly surreal. The arctic had delivered another true treasure. A photo posted by Martin Charlton (@travelbug1970) on Jun 23, 2015 at 6:58am PDT
