Sail to Antarctica with the Experts in Expedition Cruising

Theres no better way to see the 7th continent than with the most experienced and most ecologically-minded cruise line.

Founded in 1893 to ferry people, mail, and cargo, Hurtigruten expanded its operations in 1896 to include expeditions to remote corners of the Arctic. Why? For the curious. For the ones who wanted to explore extreme places respectfully, with an eye towards conservation and learning.

That ethic permeates our Antarctic expeditions, where weve sailed since 2002. We look forward to sharing the beauty of Antarctica with you and with generations to come.
