Quark Expeditions has addressed a number of concerns about polar adventure travel as part of its inaugural ‘This is Polar’ retreat on Wednesday.
The “immersive” conference in the Lake District brought together 51 of the line’s trade partners for a full day of training on everything from its small-scale ships to its polar-specific routes.
The venue in Ullswater also provided the ideal spot for tandem kayaking, canoeing, hiking and wild swimming, allowing agents to sample activities their clients can expect from an actual voyage.
