Meet some of our Arctic, Japan & Russian Far East Discovery Team experts: Jonathan Fuhrmann

Baldur Thorvaldsson

Geology, Glaciology, Lecturer, Assistant Discovery Leader

Polar Guide and Marine Mammal Lecturer

Austrian-born Jonathan Fuhrmann lived in England for 11 years where he studied Glaciology at the Scott Polar Research Institute at the University of Cambridge.

In a considered effort to impart his wisdom and raise awareness of the sciences, he worked as a science communicator at the British Antarctic Survey and the National History Museum, where he would hold talks on a range of topics from climate science and astronomy, to palaeontology, volcanology and photography.

During his years working on expedition ships, he has been fortunate to visit all seven continents of the world, noting a trip to Norway for the solar eclipse as one of his favourites.

A Icelandic marine naturalist and polar guide with an MSc degree in Ecotourism, Baldur Thorvaldsson believes in sustainable and ethical wildlife tourism as a means of encouraging people to appreciate the world around them. He has completed 50 polar voyages, including an expedition to Tristan da Cunha, a remote group of volcanic islands located in the southern Atlantic Ocean.

He’s guided hundreds of whale-watching tours in Iceland, Norway and the Azores and observed over 50 species of marine mammals during his incredible career. Always looking forward to his next adventure and sharing his knowledge, he found his calling working on expedition ships, where no day is the same and every day presents a new challenge.

Peruvian-born Pepe Rojas is an ornithologist and field researcher who has dedicated much of his life to nature and conservation. Having led many expeditions on land and sea, from the polar regions to the Amazon rainforest, his passion will be infectious as guests uncover this lesserexplored part of the world.

Pepe’s love for the Arctic was instantaneous as he fell not only for the unrivalled beauty created by the landscape and light, but for the native wildlife inhabiting its limitless icescapes.

He’ll guide and lookout for the Arctic fox, numerous whale species and the iconic spoonbilled sandpipers, a bird that breeds only in this part of the world as he shares his insights of the region.

Dr. Terence Christian is an archaeologist and historian specialising in Conflict Archaeology and Military History. After completing his Ph.D. in Conflict Archaeology at the University of Glasgow he went on to teach archaeology and history before serving as the military historian for the American Battlefield Protection Program.

Having had a love of travel from a young age, his work as an expedition leader, guide and Zodiac driver has since enabled him to build an extensive travelling repertoire covering most of the world’s continents. And, as a qualified PTGA Polar Guide, he describes the polar regions as one of his favourite places to explore with guests, as they discover where few have ever before.

Morning exploration Afternoon exploration

Excitement builds as you pull away from Scenic Eclipse. Its size and unique design allows you to explore places that larger vessels can’t reach. What will it be today?

Perhaps a Zodiac cruise beneath the limestone cliffs of Prince Leopold Island bird sanctuary on Canada’s Northwest Passage, where millions of seabirds nest.

Or land and carefully approach a walrus haulout in Spitsbergen, a Chukchi village in Siberia or thermal springs in Iceland.

It’s early as you step from your cosy Scenic Slumber Bed to your suite’s floor to ceiling window. Morning sunlight dances across rock walls. Whether in the Norwegian fjords or those of East Greenland, your butler serves a coffee of your choice as you step out onto your private verandah to breathe in pure wilderness. In the Arctic, every day brings new wonder.

Scenic Eclipse’s limited guest number means multiple landings a day. From historic hunters’ huts and reindeer in Svalbard, to Kamchatka’s coastlines alive with sea lions, otters and brown bears, to song and dance by indigenous people across the Arctic, your Discovery Team will interpret what unfolds before your eyes.

Morning

Late morning

Lunch

After a delicious breakfast, put on your complimentary polar parka and proceed to the Discovery Centre where your insulated boots await.

Join your group at the Marina entrance and board a Zodiac for your morning excursion.

With only 200 guests in polar regions, disembarkation goes smoothly and enables multiple landings each day.

No two excursions are alike.

Your Discovery Leader are alert to changing opportunities – from beluga whales suddenly appearing, to the ‘crack!’ of glacier fronts calving – flexible enough to get you there.

Monitoring weather, sea state and ice, they will safely guide and share their insights into the region’s environment. Given the range of on-board expertise, our Discovery Team can tailor each excursion to your interests.

By midday, return to your ultraluxury Discovery Yacht. Choose lunch at one of several dining experiences, from casual Azure Bar & Cafe to Yacht Club’s grill, to contemporary fine dining. While you eat, rest and admire the views, Scenic Eclipse repositions to a new location for another excursion, holding its place using its GPS Dynamic Positioning System, without dropping anchor onto sensitive seabeds.

After-dinner What better way to finish the day than with a nightcap in one of our all-inclusive nine bars and lounges, as the Midnight Sun highlights wildflower patches in tundra meadows nearby.

Afternoon rejuvenation Back on Scenic Eclipse, visit our expansive 550m2 Senses Spa for the pure indulgence of rejuvenating treatments, soak in our Vitality Spa or outdoor pool, or stretch tightening muscles in our POWER: gym, or PURE: Yoga and Pilates studio. Join your Discovery Leader for an illustrated recap of the day and learn what is planned for the next.

Seasonal Guide

C

Antarctica is a continent surrounded by ocean, the Arctic an ocean surrounded by continents – and you can explore them all on our ultra-luxury Discovery Yacht Scenic Eclipse.

The European continent, enjoys Norwegian fjords and photogenic fishing villages; Svalbard’s colourful tundra, reindeer, polar bears and walrus; Greenland’s spectacular icebergs and glacier-carved valleys, musk ox and paleo-Eskimo camps. Discover Iceland’s aweinspiring waterfalls, Viking heritage, evocative volcanic landscapes and rejuvenating thermal pools.

D

The North American continent includes Canada’s historic Northwest Passage, first navigated successfully

by Roald Amundsen, with towering seabird cliffs, pods of ghostly beluga whales and the rare chance to see narwhals. Transit through Bering Strait to Alaska’s mountainous coast and share British Columbia’s Inside Passage with breaching humpbacks.

Explore the Asian continent and discover the Russian Far East, including the Kurils, an island chain of volcanoes, incredible sea stacks, millions of seabirds and pods of orcas, stretching from Japan to Kamchatka Peninsula. The Pacific Ring of Fire continues north along Kamchatka’s magnificent coastline, where brown bears and Steller’s sea eagles feed on salmon and beaches echo with the roar of sea lions.

B

Chukotka forms the northwest corner of Asia, a wilderness of captivating beauty, where Chukchi reindeer herders bring their herds to the coast to sip seawater, bears climb cliffs to steal seabird eggs, and protected bays resound with the blows of bowhead, grey, humpback and orca whales.

E

A W ildflowers in bloom, Midsummer B P olar bear and cub emerging from den, Early Summer C Bearded seals, Midsummer D Humpback whales bubble feeding, Late Summer E Walruses on pack ice, Late Summer

Across the top of the Asian continent is the legendary Northeast Passage, until recently the domain of nuclear-powered icebreakers most of the year, but thanks to climate change, can be ice-free in summer.

From Wrangel Island, the world’s highest density of polar bear dens, traverse the Arctic Ocean, setting foot in places few have visited such as the Medvedie and Novosibirskie Islands, Severnaya and Novaya Zemlyas and Franz Joseph Land. These wild places, inhabited by polar bears, walrus, seabirds like tufted puffins and rhinoceros auklets, and Russian scientists living in weather-worn stations left over from the Cold War. No matter which continent you choose, another significant difference between Antarctic and the Arctic are the polar bears. Marine mammals spend most of their lives on Arctic Ocean sea ice, hunting seals, walrus, even whales in the frigid waters and come ashore to give birth to their cubs.

Whenever we enter Ice Bear’s domain, your expert Discovery Team expedition leader carry bear deterrents ranging from rifles and flare pistols to pepper spray (depending on local regulations). Landing areas will be carefully marked with flags showing the limits where you can go. Your safety is our priority.

As well as Arctic destinations, here are some seasonal highlights to help you decide which voyage to choose:

Early Summer June – Early July On seabird cliffs of Norway, Kuril Islands and Kamchatka, puffins, gannets and guillemots feed chicks. Humpback whales follow the Gulf Stream north along the Norwegian coast, while fast ice breaks out of the deeper fjords. Snow free areas across the Arctic attract migratory birds, and polar bears and cubs emerge from dens.

Midsummer Mid July – Early August Millions of migratory birds fill flyways in Europe, North America and Asia. Seabird cliffs are noisy with growing chicks. Algal blooms attract ringed, bearded and harp seals. On Wrangel Island and across Canada, polar bears teach cubs to hunt. Spectacular Arctic wildflowers bloom and walrus crowd ice floes as polar bears stalk seals in pack ice around Svalbard. Long days make Iceland an ideal destination for photographers.

Late Summer Mid August – Early September Open waters unlock the Northwest and Northeast Passages, with access to polar bears hunting seals and walrus in pack ice. Narwhals begin to gather for winter off Baffin Island. Humpback, bowhead, grey and beluga whales feed off continental coasts before migrating south. Shorebirds and seabirds complete their moult and prepare to head south. Arctic foxes scour the base of seabird cliffs in search for late-season chicks. Warm daytime temperatures encourage spectacular calving of glacier fronts, tundra walks turn up ripe berries and sunsets begin to light up the evening sky.

Svalbard is so remote not even Paleo-Eskimos reached there and despite later periods of shorebased whaling, hunting, trapping, mining and scientific expeditions much remains a pristine wilderness. It’s ours to explore in ultra-luxury from our Discovery Yacht, Scenic Eclipse.

Mountainous Spitsbergen, the largest island in the archipelago, dominates Svalbard’s northwest corner. At its heart is Longyearbyen, Svalbard’s largest, and the world’s most northerly settlement.

thus improving our chance to see more and reach places other ships can’t, including beyond 80 degrees latitude to Seven Islands, Svalbard’s northernmost island group.

If ice conditions allow, thrill to a passage down Hinlopen Strait, which separates Spitsbergen from Nordaustlandet, an ice-capped polar desert where female polar bears and cubs prowl. Vegetation is sparse, but fossils are many and walrus frequently sleep on its cobbled beaches. Across the way are soaring birdcliffs that literally buzz with some 200,000 nests of Brünichs guillemots, kittiwakes and gulls. Carry binoculars to spy Arctic foxes scavenging for fallen eggs and chicks along the base.

Enjoy breathtaking scenery from your suite’s private verandah as Scenic Eclipse navigates spectacular waterways like Magdalena Fjord, and join Discovery Team specialists on Zodiac cruises along calving ice fronts of the Waggonway or 14th July glaciers. As you slowly move amongst the brash ice and bergy bits, watch for polar bears on shore and reindeer grazing on tundra hills.

In Kingsfjorden, we may visit Ny Ålesund, a mining town turned polar research centre, or farther north, Amsterdamoya, where our Discovery Team historian leads us to Smeerenburg (literally Blubber Town) the remains of a 17th Century Dutch whaling settlement, where walrus often haulout. Just across the channel are the ruins from the Swedish balloon expedition base camp, where Andrée and his two co-pilots launched, never to be seen alive again.

Today delightful harbour seals remain to entertain.

North of Spitsbergen, Scenic Eclipse aims for the Arctic pack ice, an ethereal world where walrus bob on ice floes, polar bears hunt seals and beluga whales rise in open leads. Scenic Eclipse, is built to Polar Class 6 standards and its state-of-theart design allows us to push deeper into the pack

On Svalbard’s south side, visit Sundneset, a fertile plain covered in green mosses and delicate flowers including the yellow marsh saxifrage, moss campion, bell-heather and elegant sunburst lichen. Round South Cape, the most southerly point of Spitsbergen, to explore the deep fjords of Hornsund and Bellsund, where reindeer graze on tundra near preserved trappers huts, puffins join guillemots on bird cliffs, and beluga whales rise like ghosts beneath ice fronts.

Focus on the wonders of Svalbard in our Arctic in Depth voyage or combine it with explorations of other destinations like the Norwegian Fjords, Greenland’s stunning east coast, and the thermal wonders of Iceland. No matter which Arctic cruise you choose, travelling in 6-star ultra-luxury on the World’s First Discovery Yacht, accompanied by up to 20 Discovery Team specialists keen to share their expertise and enthusiasm for special places, will leave you with indelible memories to treasure.

Watch for the beautifully patterned great northern diver, the oldest bird species in the world, or its moreshowy relative, the red-throated diver. Greenland is host to more than 60 species of birds, so ‘twitchers’ will be well-rewarded.

Greenland, the world’s largest island, is draped in the planet’s second largest ice sheet and cut by the greatest fjords on Earth.

From Northeast Greenland National Park (the world’s largest) situated south along the east coast, fjord systems wind up to 350 magical, often ice-laden kilometres from the coast.

Scenic Eclipse ultra-luxury Discovery Yacht is designed and built to Polar Class 6 standards, making it easy to explore these remote regions. Scenic Eclipse operates in places other ships can’t reach, like Kaiser Franz Josef Fjord early in the season. This red-rock wonderland of wind and wave sculpted icebergs offers a secret passage to Kong Oskar Fjord, where your expert Discovery Team will lead you on walks across blossoming tundra to encounter musk oxen families and pure white Arctic hare.

Learn what life was like for nomadic PaleoEskimos who inhabited the region for more than 4000 years, visit Inuit hunting camps abandoned two centuries ago, but remain so

well-preserved that circular stone tent rings, winter houses, bear-proof meat caches and grave sites can still be seen.

Listen as your Discovery Team historian regales you with tales of polar exploration, from Fridtjof Nansen and Otto Sverdrup’s ski crossing of the Greenland Ice Sheet in 1888, to their drift across the Arctic Ocean on board the specially designed Fram. Sverdrup’s Fram II scientific expedition, which spent four years exploring north Greenland, is an epic tale.

Delight in a warm welcome to communities like remote Ittoqqortoormiit, where Inuit hunters, trappers and fishermen keep traditions alive; Narsaq, on Tunulliarfik Fjord, where Norseman Erik the Red first settled and Qaqortoq, a town of 18th-century colonial buildings and a museum featuring Greenlandic culture that is set on a bay often dotted with icebergs and lively whales.

Spend time on deck relishing the flight of fulmars as they accompany our passage.

E

Greenland’s west coast is swept by warm Gulf Stream currents, offering a more temperate climate and more populous towns including the capital, Nuuk. Join our Discovery Team on a guided tour through picturesque Old Harbour, find mummies and Inuit skin boats in the Greenland National Museum and local art in the Nuuk Art Museum and Katuaq cultural centre.

From Ilulissat, a small village on Disko Bay, listen to the growl and thunder of massive icebergs calved from Sermeq Kujalleq, the world’s fastest and most active glacier, to fill Ilulissat Icefjord with grinding ice castles.

Or gain a close-up view of the Greenland Ice Sheet itself on an excursion from Kangerlussuaq, where the U.S. established one of several airbases during World War II. Your Discovery Team historian tells how the two countries forged stronger ties during the Cold War that continue today.

Whether approaching Greenland from Svalbard or Iceland on an Arctic Islands or Exploring the High Arctic voyage, joining a Northwest Passage voyage in Greenland, with memories of wild Greenland will remain with you forever.

Visit Húsavík, the first place in Iceland to be settled by a Norse man. Swedish Viking Garðar Svavarsson stayed there for one winter around 870 A.D. and left behind a member of his party and two slaves who established the first farm. Today Húsavík is known as the ‘whale watching capital’ of Iceland. Soak and relax in geothermal sea baths with stunning views of Skjálfandi Bay and the lighthouse nearby.

Listen to the amazing tale of how local villagers pumped cool seawater onto lava streams advancing from nearby Eldfell volcano and thus saved their seaport. Our exclusive Scenic Enrich events offer unique and private shows that highlight Icelandic culture and folklore.

Best of all is to feel the spray, listen to the song, and photograph the beauty and wonder of Iceland’s many waterfalls. From thundering Dynjandi (‘the one that keeps hitting’), a series of cascades that tumble 100 metres in the Westfjords; Dettifoss in Vatnajökull National Park, reputed to be Europe’s second most powerful waterfall and Gullfoss, the ‘Golden Waterfall’, one of Iceland’s most beloved.

Your experienced Captain and Discovery Leader will use their expertise to design this section of your voyage from day to day, making the most of the long daylight hours, weather and ice conditions to give you the best experience possible in this extraordinary part of the world. Your Scenic Eclipse voyage cruises at prime time for wildlife spotting, and there will be ample opportunities to spot the dominant predators of the region including the polar bear. Marine species in the area include the

carefully protected walrus with its characteristic tusks and several species of whales. Once nearly hunted to extinction in a region now transformed into a dedicated conservation area, your encounters with these giants of the sea will be a memory to treasure. In addition, the surprisingly mild climate makes it the perfect Arctic location for a large variety of wildlife, including seabirds, seals, the Arctic fox, and reindeer. Make sure you always keep your binoculars with you. Some of the possible landing sights that you may visit include Ny Ålesund, home to the northernmost post office in the world rich with history, the North East Svalbard Nature Reserve with the highest population of polar bears and walrus, and the North West Spitsbergen National Park, where you will explore magnificent fjords and the enormous Monaco Glacier.

With land that remains frozen for almost the entire year, dominated by frost shattered rocks and minimal plants and animals, it is a barren wasteland that has very similar conditions to the planet of Mars. It is also the location of the Haughton impact crater, formed when a meteorite about 2km in diameter crashed into the surface 39 million years ago.

SCENIC may, before the start of the travel, require the traveller within a reasonable period specified to accept the significant variations to the contract or to terminate the contract without paying a cancellation fee. In the notification of the changes, SCENIC shall expressly draw the traveller’s attention to this deadline.

The traveller may respond to the notification by either accepting the contractual change, requesting to participate in substitute travel, where this was offered to him, or terminating the contract without a fee.

This shall be without prejudice to any warranty claims, however, if the amended services are not in conformity with the contract.

(2) Circumstances that can result in a change to the travel route or cruise, in particular for safety or weather reasons, are, for example, high or low water levels in a waterway or port, ports or locks that are closed, storms, storm warnings and unforeseen circumstances beyond the control of SCENIC. Changes to the travel route or cruise may, in addition, include: (a) the use of substitute vessels for part or all of the cruise; (b) cabin changes on a vessel; (c) additional embarkations and disembarkations; (d) changes to the destinations to be visited and to departure and arrival times; (e) a reduction or increase in the period of stay in a particular location.

by SCENIC, the offer relating to the price increase shall be deemed accepted unless the traveller has terminated the contract. In the offer relating to a price increase, SCENIC may also offer the traveller an alternative tour.

(3) SCENIC must grant the traveller a reduction in the tour price if and to the extent that, after entering the contract and before the start of the travel, the abovementioned prices, taxes or exchange rates have changed, resulting in decreased costs for SCENIC. If the traveller has paid more than the amount due following such reduction, SCENIC must refund the overpayment. SCENIC may, however, deduct administrative expensive actually incurred from the amount to be refunded.

At the traveller’s request, SCENIC must prove that the administrative expenses were incurred.

(4) Carriage by sea is subject to the liability provisions of the Athens Convention of 1974 as amended by the 2002 Protocol as well as the International Maritime Organisation Reservation and Guidelines for the Implementation of the Athens Convention which was implemented in the European Union by Regulation (EC) No 392/2009.

The rules of this paragraph shall apply unless the rules specified in clause 6(1) result in a lower claim being asserted against SCENIC. In connection with the liability provisions governing carriage by sea, SCENIC draws your attention to the following points: (a) Irrespective of the existence of a damages claim, in the event of death or personal injury caused by a shipping incident, SCENIC shall, within 15 days of the identification of the person entitled to damages, make an advance payment in respect of each person and incident and in the case of death no less than EUR 21 000. The advance payment shall not constitute the recognition of any claim whatsoever. The advance payment may be offset against any subsequent damages payable. It must be refunded to SCENIC if the person who received it is not the person entitled to damages (see Article 6(2) of Regulation (EC) No 392/2009). (b) SCENIC’s liability for the loss of and damage to luggage, mobility aids and other special equipment used by travellers and/or members of their party with reduced mobility shall be excluded if in the case of visible damage the traveller and/or members of their party do not report the damage at the latest on disembarkation and in the case of damage that is not immediately visible no later than 15 days after disembarkation. Written notification of the damage is not required if within the period prescribed the parties have jointly agreed the damage. (c) SCENIC shall not be liable for the loss of or damage to valuables (e.g. money, important documents, negotiable instruments, precious metals, gems, jewellery, artworks, photography and film equipment, portable video systems and mobile devices, such as laptops or tablets, together with the corresponding accessories, etc.) unless they were deposited for safekeeping during carriage.

(5) Further SCENIC shall not be liable for defective performance, personal injury and/or property damage resulting from services provided by third parties which are not part of the contractual travel services. Such services are bought-in services, where we act merely as agent, or are operated by independent third parties, such as, for example, the provision of goods and services (e.g. excursions, sporting events, exhibitions, visits) during the cruise and as such can be identified by passengers as evidently not part of SCENIC’s travel services.

This shall not apply where these third parties must be qualified as SCENIC’s vicarious agents or SCENIC creates the impression that it is the operator of the services provided by the third parties. SCENIC shall be liable however if and to the extent that the damage sustained by the passenger is caused by the breach of notification, information or organisation duties incumbent on us.

(6) See also “Communication for international travel passengers on limitation of liability” and “Information on limitations of liability for luggage”. In addition, in relation to all flights offered the general and special terms and conditions of carriage of the carrying airline apply.

Some activities require a minimum or maximum number of participants to operate. (d) For Arctic and Antarctic expeditions as well as mountain excursions and discovery experiences (e.g. by dinghy, kayak, helicopter, e-bike, submersible or using scuba diving equipment) participants need to have an adequate level of physical fitness and health.
