Sturdy at sea and strong in the ice, the 332-ft MS Expedition is a polar expedition vessel built in 1975. She underwent a $13 million conversion in 1998 and a complete refurbishment of her cabin interiors in 2014. Another refurbishment in 2017 upgraded the ship’s technical specs, resulting in fuel efficiency and a minimized carbon footprint. Accommodating up to 128 guests, she is the perfect expedition ship for those looking for soft adventure and comfort.
Located across five decks and ranging in size from 113 to 294 square feet, the cabins come in eight different categories. Most of them are twin-bedded while some of them sleep up to three guests. They are all outward facing, and all include ensuite bathroom facilities, as well as a TV and DVD player. The three owner’s suites are situated on the Bridge Deck, and the largest has a bathtub.
The social hub of the ship is the main lounge on the Upper Deck, complete with a theater-style auditorium that can accommodate all passengers. Apart from the main lounge enjoy mingling and exploring at the outdoor decks, dining area, library or from the 2 jacuzzis!
