Our headquarters are in Copenhagen, but we operate globally with modern vessels dedicated to polar expeditions in Arctic and Antarctica. We specialize in unique and educational journeys where sustainability, authenticity, and quality are always at the forefront.
We are committed to advancing green expedition tourism, for example, by eliminating single-use plastics, using biodegradable materials, and collaborating closely with local communities in destinations such as Greenland.
Following a recent acquisition and name change from Albatros Expeditions to Polar Latitudes, we are merging with partners in the USA and Australia, supported by an ambitious growth plan aimed at making us the preferred choice for both customers and partners. You should therefore be comfortable navigating change.
