M/S Expedition

M/S Expedition is a well loved vessel both with our polar team who have travelled on-board her, experiencing her professional operations first hand, as well as many years of delighted Antarctic and Arctic clients who wish to explore on-board her again.  MS Expedition was refurbished in 2009 to a high standard and carries a maximum of 134 passengers. On board she is spacious whilst still facilitating an intimate atmosphere. She boasts good sized en suite cabins compared with other vessels her size, each featuring ocean-facing windows or portholes. With a top speed of 16 knots and equipped with stabilisers she is a fast and very comfortable vessel.

Client review:

"I had an amazing time (in Antarctica) that outdid all expectations. We had an incredible varied journey and the ship was amazing. All ran so smooth, the food was wonderful, all staff on the ship appeared to remember your name... I totally fell in love with the ship which was 110% right for me. Very roomy and still intimate. This is the best decision I have ever made. Totally satisfied."
