Magnússon will be accompanied by a team of Arctic experts, including fellow explorer John Beatty, whose experience includes an ice-crossing expedition to Greenland.

"My vision in creating Arctic Horizon was to make the last frontier accessible to a select few who share my passion and respect for these rarely experienced, untouched regions and to provide a life-changing adventure that does not compromise on service or comfort."
