Luxury Antarctic Cruise Ships

LUXURY ANTARCTIC CRUISE SHIPS

Luxury Antarctic cruise ships combine more traditional-style cruising with an Antarctic adventure.

Many of these Luxury Antarctica Cruise ships are new purpose-built for exploring Polar regions in comfort and style.

They offer large, very comfortable, cabins with en-suite facilities; most suites have private balconies.

Excellent cuisine options are available, often in a range of restaurants, some informal others offering fine dining – all are al la carte.

Zodiac dinghies and an expedition team enable you to explore the Antarctic Peninsula and come home to an exquisite ship. Some have helicopters and even small submersibles on-board.

When compared with Expedition/Luxury ships a luxury ship puts greater emphasis on the on-board experience.

FINE DINING

Excellent cuisine options are available, often in a range of restaurants, some informal others offering fine dining – all are al la carte. Some offer in-suite dining, if the conditions are suitable, on your private balcony.
