Witness a total eclipse over Greenland

Greenland, North America

HX Hurtigruten in Greenland

In August 2026, the Arctic sky will dim as the moon slides across the sun in the longest solar eclipse of the century — a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon few will ever witness again.

There’s no better vantage point than from the deck of a luxury expedition ship sailing past Greenland’s icy fjords and glittering icebergs.

Scientists onboard will guide you through the cosmic choreography unfolding above.

Between eclipse moments, explore remote Inuit villages, kayak among seals and spot polar bears on drifting ice.

It’s front-row access to one of nature’s rarest shows.

Turn your travel dreams into a reality, and start planning a trip to Greenland. Explore our latest holiday deals here, or speak to your local House of Travel friendly travel expert today and get ready to experience a cosmic front row.

Hi all - please note that I am on maternity leave until September 2026  :)

Customer service has always been drilled into me. After begging my way into a cafe job at 14, I then spent 12 years working in the hospitality industry supervising restaurants and managing specialty cafes which also founded my love for all different types of foods.

After spending 3 years in Melbourne, 6 months in South East Asia and a few years in the UK I finally made the switch to the travel industry where I have been able to share my love for travel and customer service ever since.

I made it through the dark years of COVID in the industry which has led me to know to dig that little bit deeper into my clients' travel plans to create that perfect trip, and ensure we really have the best option for you in terms of comfort, reliability, and service. As we just don't know what is round the corner, do we!

I've travelled extensively across Southeast Asia, UK and Europe, spent a lot of time exploring properties in Fiji (and relaxing by the beach), road tripped in California and in 2024 I visited South Africa in Feb, Japan, South Korea and Taipei! I've got many more places on my bucket list to visit, but if I haven't been, I've got a superb team of people behind me who have and we'll work out the best trip for you! My ultimate passion when I travel is trying local foods, and finding the best possible places to have that authentic experience that we wouldn't be able to have at home. So if that resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you and let's put together your foodie adventure, together :)
