90° north latitude, 700 kilometres from the nearest land… Who hasn’t dreamed of one day reaching the end of the world? A source of wonder, myths, and great human and technological feats, as well as tragedy since ancient times, the North Pole continues to fascinate and inspire. Countless explorers have attempted to reach this elusive point. Among the French, Jean-Louis Étienne made history in 1986 as the first to reach the geographic North Pole solo, on skis. Set off on a cruise to the North Pole and experience the thrill of this extraordinary adventure for yourself.
