Cruise Description With featured guests Mike Louagie and Sue Flood, Photo Ambassadors.

Le Commandant Charcot, a technological wonder capable of sailing in the most extreme environments, is opening up new horizons in unrivalled comfort and invites you to explore the Saint Lawrence. This river is not accessible to traditional ships in winter, so this exclusive and all-new PONANT journey lifts the veil on unique great open spaces, where the waters, once turbulent, freeze into ice, and where the forests are dressed in an immaculate white coat.

You will gradually sail from the Gulf of Saint Lawrence between open water and drifting ice to reach the residual ice floe in the south of Greenland and will be able to admire this changing spectacular natural scenery from the reassuring cocoon of Le Commandant Charcot. Aboard the ship or on shore, you will seize the opportunities to explore these places where nature and the local communities reign supreme. Set off to discover this enchanting environment, featuring boreal forests of snow-covered conifers, immaculate valleys and drifting ice floe, thanks to winter activities such as polar hiking, snowshoeing or skiing. You may be lucky enough to see typical animals like caribou and elk in their natural habitat.

In this region, where souls are filled with deep serenity, the colourful houses and fishing huts stand valiantly. Their sparkling facades, in bright and vibrant colours, defy the harshness of the winter landscape. Here, in one of the "few places where you can experience the cold with so much warmth" (Saguenay proverb), you will be charmed by the welcome and conviviality of the Quebeckers, your discovery of the First Nations including the Micmac on the Gaspé Peninsula, the hospitality of the inhabitants of the Magdalen Islands and Newfoundland, as well as your encounter with the Inuit in Greenland.

A journey suspended in time, where lives blend with the natural elements and where the wild beauty of nature is revealed in its full splendour.

The itinerary is subject to modifications. On board, the sailing programme, outings and activities cannot be guaranteed and are subject to weather and ice conditions.
