Board Ambience at London Tilbury for this exciting Arctic voyage. After a relaxing day at sea, your first port of call is Reykjavik, the world’s most northerly capital. Heading further west across the North Atlantic, you’ll make several fascinating calls in Greenland, before heading home via the remote Orkney Isles.
Sail through waters crossed a thousand years ago by Norse adventurers on their way to the New World as you head to Greenland, the world’s largest island. Keep an eye out for whales as you make several fascinating calls, including at picturesque Qaqortoq and Ilulissat, famed for its dramatic icefjords and huge icebergs.
Join us as we discover the landscapes of Greenland and Iceland with special star guests, polar experts and award-winning explorers, Louis Rudd MBE, Ann Daniels and Wendy Searle, all here to encourage more people to pursue their ideas and become adventurous role models. We have ORCA, a charity that’s entirely dedicated to studying and protecting whales, dolphins and porpoises in UK and European waters, with two expert environmentalists on board to make sure no viewing of the incredible wildlife is missed. ORCA is passionate about people and is dedicated to combining accessible marine education with their conservation activities - giving ordinary people opportunities to take an active role in marine science and conservation. The team will be providing lectures on whales, dolphins, porpoises and other marine conservation issues as well as workshops on spotting whales and dolphins. There will be drop-in sessions to discuss wildlife topics as well as specially escorted excursions. We have wildlife commentaries in the seaview lounges and public address systems, deck watches during daylight hours, and teams working on public decks to help guests spot wildlife whilst recording real scientific data to protect marine life. It will certainly be a cruise like no other!

wasRules may have changed since you last travelled to European Union countries and Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. The following are useful guidelines which will help you prepare for your next adventure. Note that these new rules do NOT apply when travelling within the United Kingdom or to the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man or the Republic of Ireland. You do require government issued ID when travelling by air though.
It is very important that all passenger names are exactly as per your passport although we do not require middle names.
Your passport must meet two requirements to travel to an EU country and to Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. It must be:
These rules do not apply to travel to Ireland where you can continue to use your passport as long as it’s valid for the length of your stay.
If you’re a tourist, you do not need a visa for short trips to most EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. You’ll be able to stay for up to 90 days in any rolling 180-day period. Different rules will apply to Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus and Romania; if you visit these countries, visits to other EU countries will not count towards the 90-day total. Travel to Ireland will not change and stays there will not count towards the 90-day total.
Towards the end of 2022, it is likely that non EU citizens will be required to apply online for an authorisation to visit most European countries. The current details suggest there will be a charge of €7 per person and the authorisation will be valid for all trips made to the EU in a three year period from issue. We will advise you of confirmed details prior to your tour’s departure.
At border control, you may need to show proof of your return journey - your travel documentation issued by us will be sufficient for this. You will also need to use separate lanes from EU, EEA and Swiss citizens if manual checks are required.
You should always get appropriate travel insurance with healthcare cover before you go abroad which covers pre-existing conditions. You should understand the terms and conditions of your travel insurance and be happy with its cover for healthcare and travel disruption. Newmarket sell a comprehensive travel insurance policy. Ask our travel consultants for more information.
You should also apply for a UK Global Heath Insurance Card (GHIC) which lets you get urgent state healthcare in Europe at a reduced cost or sometimes for free. Note GHIC is only valid in EU countries and not in Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.
With a name that in itself conjures images of warm welcome and conviviality, 70,000-tonne Ambience, measuring over 800 feet from elegant stem to stern, offers every modern comfort, exuding the friendly service and traditional values that Newmarket Holidays’ customers have previously enjoyed at sea. Across her 11 decks, she offers everything to ensure that life aboard is a pleasure from start to finish. Carrying an average of 1400 passengers in 798 comfortable cabins, many with private balconies, the ship offers an overall sense of spaciousness, especially in the three-tiered central Atrium, in the near 700-seat, fully equipped show lounge, in which guests can be royally entertained each evening, and on her wonderful top decks, on which guests can ‘soak up the sun’.
