Quark Expeditions

Quark Expeditions is the leader in Polar expeditions and are headquartered in Seattle, United States. Quark Expeditions offers unforgettable experiences to few of the world’s most remote areas. Discover the glacial Arctic and hit upon polar bears, walrus, musk oxen and the great whales of the North. Take the cruise and travel to the massive continent of Antarctica, a land of radiant ice, high peaks and wonderful beauty.

Having six cruise ships in its fleet, Quark Expeditions is owned by Travelopia and has been offering both cruises and land-based expeditions. Quark’s vessels carries fewer than 200 passengers and they’re equipped with zodiacs, and inflatable landing crafts. It helps move the guests to shore and back, and attributes ice-strengthened hulls for navigating polar waters.

Quark Expeditions looks to offer an authentic polar expedition to its guests. Some activities to carry out the expedition are offered as standard, while others need to be paid for at the time of cruise booking. Guests need to check their expeditions first to make the booking for activities as they vary by itinerary, ship, destination, and weather-permitting.
