The co-founders of Quark Expeditions, Lars Wikander and Mike McDowell, took the first group of commercial travelers to the Arctic in 1991. Its first game-changing expedition—the tourist transit on the Northeastern route—set Quark Expeditions on a course that put them at the forefront of polar exploration. Since then, they have taken travelers on polar expeditions to remote areas of the Arctic and Antarctica, where no one else has set foot. Polar exploration has evolved since the 1991 journey on the nuclear-powered icebreaker, Sovetskiy Soyuz. Its first journey solidified the role of Quark Expeditions as a leader in polar adventures and they are forever driven to pave the way for polar exploration.
We are so glad that we chose Adventure Life. The service is top-notch. Everything is well taken care of and we just have to print the documents and go. Franny even gave us timely updates on possible airport strike.
