EXPEDITION C R U I S E S

Seen the whole world?Then it‘s time for something new.

Dear Guests,

“One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.” These words

from Henry Miller exude true pioneering spirit. Taking unfamiliar paths, encountering

surprises, trying new things and seeing the world through new eyes – each of our

expeditions is a treat for your mind and your soul. Can you hear the cracking of ice

floes? Are you dreaming of the mighty albatross? Or having visions of dancers in

exotic masks? Then get going.

Our new, small ship is in an expedition league of its own, offering you adventure

and comfort at the highest level – in the polar regions (the Arctic and Antarctica) as well

as destinations such as South America and the South Seas. Even the legendary sea routes

such as the Northeast Passages are on our itinerary. There are also beautiful, secret

spots to be explored first-hand on the coasts of Europe. Get up close to the wonders

of creation, and see the world through new eyes. We are pleased to present our range

of expeditions for 2021/2022 – find your next adventure among them.

We look forward to welcoming you on board.
