The ship is specially constructed for voyages in polar waters. It serves as a comfortable base camp at sea – bringing adventurers from all over the world to the most spectacular destinations in the most sustainable way.

Entertainment

Swap crowded decks for intimate lounges where your shipmates gather to recount the tales so far. Onboard restaurants serve delicious dishes, fit for the modern-day explorer. Destress in the gym or pamper yourself in the wellness centre before unwinding in your comfortable cabin. Elevate your expedition experience in a spacious suite with a private balcony - some even have outdoor hot tubs, perfect for soaking in the scenery after a day of discovery.

Enrichment

Our expedition ships – MS Roald Amundsen, MS Fridtjof Nansen, MS Fram, MS Spitsbergen, MS Santa Cruz II – are more than just a way to travel - they’re your home in the heart of the wild. Instead of an onboard casino, we have the Science Centre. Instead of cabaret shows, you have all the show you need outside the windows. No water slides, just kayaking trips or small-boat safaris along the coast in the Arctic, Antarctic, or the Galápagos.

Health & Fitness

A full suite of facilities equip you to maintain an active lifestyle balanced by relaxation for body and mind. After exploring new destinations or exercising on board, you can rejuvenate in the wellness center, or relax in the infinity pool.
