This cruise was absolutely fantastic. The staff were friendly and helpful. The expeditions were super well organised and extremely interesting. The expedition crew were so knowledgeable, informative, funny and inspiring! Best science lessons I have ever experienced! Field trips are so exciting - for any age! The underwater drone was fascinating especially when looking at shipwrecks and the sea ...

Having travelling with Hurtigruten previously and had an excellent experience, we chose them for the Northern Lights trip. The trip was excellent with different excursions and a a superb expedition team making the whole trip informative, inspiring and interesting. During the visit we managed to see the Northern Lights as well as stunning scenery, whales and other wildlife and go on ...

This was not just a cruise. It was an experience, and it met or exceeded our expectations. We have taken cruises before and always enjoyed them. Although we enjoyed this cruise too, it was more about seeing and exploring the wonders of the White Continent. The word "expedition" feels accurate. It was more adventurous than other cruises, and in that respect, it certainly met our ...

After doing much research, I chose Hurtigruten for our expedition cruise to Antarctica for two main reasons: I am impressed by their commitment to sustainability AND for such a strong emphasis on science. I heard about Hurtigruten when the famous biologist, Jerry Coyne wrote of his experience on the Amundsen lecturing on biology! From booking to disembarking, everyone who works for Hurtigruten ...

I have to start this review with a fond farewell to Buenos Aires, as the cruise package started from there. We came in early and were in BA the day Argentina won the World Cup, so there was joyful celebrating throughout the city which kicked off a wonderful next 2 1/2 weeks. However... it meant that, two days later, we had to leave our hotel at 1:30 AM in a vain attempt to avoid airport traffic to ...

My travel agent suggested this cruise line for me and my niece and I was frankly hesitant. I had seen mainly good reviews, but I am not a good sailor and was hesitant to cross the Drake Passage. This was only my second cruise and I void after the first to never sail again. I say this whole heartedly - I would not have missed this adventure for anything. The crew - both hotel and excursion were ...

Compliments: -Boat is exceptional, it was built by Rolls-Royce so quality is premium -Food is quality if repetitive -Expeditions are enjoyable and good exercise -All the penguins you could hope for. We also saw whales, dolphins and seals. Some of my critiques: -More boat entertainment for guests. No comedians, (dedicated) bands, any dancing, movie lounges, nothing. It's a got a ...

The expertise of the team and the pride and professionalism of the entire crew really made this cruise special. It was clear the staff really love what they do and it made the whole trip better than any cruise we've experienced previously. The communication on-board, given the ...

We sailed with Hurtigruten for our Antarctica trip, and it couldn't have been better. The ship is beautiful and well designed with sustainability in mind. The crew is very passionate about what they do, and each member of the crew was helpful and friendly. During our cruise, we had almost 400 pax on board, but at no point did any part of the ship feel overcrowded. The landings and excursions are ...
