The World Leader in Polar Adventures
Since 1991, Quark Expeditions has specialized in polar expeditions aboard vessels purpose-built for high latitude sailing. As the leader in polar expeditions Quark Expeditions offer unparalleled technical expertise, leadership and passion for polar adventure.
Quark Expeditions has the largest and most diverse fleet of passenger vessels in the Antarctic.

In the Arctic, Quark Expeditions goes higher and farther than anyone else. Their nuclear-powered icebreaker crushes its way to the North Pole. Our polar-class icebreaker, Kapitan Khlebnikov journeys at latitudes well above the Arctic Circle. Each icebreaker is equipped with helicopters and Zodiacs, enabling Quark Expeditions to reach remote locations that other vessels in the Arctic cannot.
