Serious about Polar expedition cruising in comfort: speed, stability, and an excellent ice-class.

With a 1A-Super ice class rating – the highest classification given to passenger vessels – the US-operated Seaventure is serious about Polar expedition cruising.

This ship is also serious about comfort: originally built in 1990, she has undergone extensive refurbishment and offers a range of accommodation from porthole cabins to staterooms with balcony. Guest numbers are limited to just 149, ensuring the experience is a personal one too. Facilities include a bar and dining room, library, sauna, fitness centre, custom-built citizen science lab and a heated saltwater pool. The highly-trained expedition team oversees a full programme of shore landings and experiences. Furthermore, sea kayaking or camping is available on selected departures at additional cost.
