Quark Expeditions specializes in polar travel to the Arctic and Antarctica, using a fleet of small expedition ships to reach remote regions others can't access. Guided by a team of polar experts, the company offers on- and off-ship experiences designed to immerse travelers in pristine environments and unique adventures. The company traces its origins to 1991, when its founders undertook a pioneering journey to the North Pole and launched the first tourist transit of the Northeast Passage. Based in Seattle, Washington, the company operates within the travel arrangements industry with a focus on polar expeditions rather than mass-market cruises. In late 2025 it introduced a client-booking management feature for travel advisors, reflecting ongoing enhancements to its services.
