World Wide Quest's itinerary had originally scheduled to include travel in Newfoundland and Labrador (including Hopedale and the Torngat Mountains) with their final destination as Iqaluit, Nunavut. Due to ice conditions further north the ship, Akademik Ioffe, re-routed south, taking in the additional Nunatsiavut communities of Nain and Rigolet before delivering passengers to the Goose Bay port for disembarkation.

The visitor experience in our Inuit communities included cultural interpretation, nature walks, craft viewing, artisan interaction, guided and unguided community tours and an address by the president of the Nunatsiavut Government.
