Franco Mariotti will take you on a journey through the Northwest Passage. Long sought for a shortcut route to the Indies, the Northwest Passage is both beautiful and unforgiving. Observe wildlife from polar bears to lemmings, from bowhead whales to narwhals. Learn about their little-known survival strategies on staying alive in this harsh environment. Learn about some of the early Explorers. See what they saw and unravel their explorations and mysterious disappearances

Coffee/tea on site.
