Adventure Canada Unveils Expanded 2028 Expedition Collection

Adventure Canada is expanding its expedition portfolio for 2028 with new journeys through the Canadian Arctic, Northern Europe, and Antarctica.

The expanded collection introduces a new eastern gateway voyage to the Northwest Passage, a North Atlantic expedition linking Iceland and the Faroe Islands, and a new Antarctica Peninsula voyage, alongside the return of many favourites.

The 2028 program builds on Adventure Canada’s focus on small-ship expedition travel, with voyages designed around wildlife, history, culture, and community connections.

Cedar Swan, CEO of Adventure Canada, said that: “For 2028, we wanted to create more opportunities for travellers to visit the regions where we have deep experience, while also opening the door to new places and perspectives. Whether guests are drawn to the Canadian Arctic, Antarctica, or the cultural coastlines of Northern Europe, this expanded collection offers more choice while continuing to deliver the immersive, education-focused, community-connected experiences that our clients know and value.”

The 2028 collection continues to build on Adventure Canada’s Canadian Arctic strength. In addition to the return of its premier journeys Into and Out of the Northwest Passage, the company has added a new shorter Northwest Passage: Eastern Gateway journey that is a wonderful introduction to the High Arctic during the illuminated summer months, with one departure in July and another in August.

Among the 2028 highlights, Adventure Canada’s Out of the Northwest Passage expedition will celebrate the 100th anniversary since the St. Roch – an RCMP schooner that was the first vessel to traverse the Passage from west to east – was launched for Arctic service.

Another new addition for 2028, is the Iceland & the Faroe Islands: Islands Born of Fire and Sea expedition. Sailing aboard Ocean Victory, the 11-day voyage starts and ends in Reykjavík, circumnavigating Iceland and exploring how its many volcanoes, glaciers, geothermal forces, and ocean continually reshape the shoreline.

Adventure Canada’s 2028 program also introduces new ways to explore Antarctica, going deeper into the White Continent with its new Antarctic Peninsula: An Explorer’s Expedition, an 11-day voyage that sails from Ushuaia across the Drake Passage to the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula, where daily activities are shaped by weather, wildlife, and ice conditions.

As well, the 2028 program brings back several Adventure Canada favourites, from Newfoundland and Sable Island to Scotland and the High Arctic. Each expedition offers a distinct way to explore the landscapes, communities, and histories that have shaped these regions.
