Hurtigruten Expeditions is a pioneer in sustainable and immersive exploration, offering unforgettable journeys to some of the world’s most remote and pristine environments.

With over 130 years of maritime heritage and polar expertise, Hurtigruten combines authentic adventure with a commitment to science, education, and environmental responsibility.

Travellers aboard Hurtigruten’s modern, purpose-built expedition ships—many featuring hybrid propulsion technology—explore regions such as Antarctica, the Arctic, Greenland, Svalbard, Iceland, South America, West Africa, and the Galápagos Islands.

These small, agile vessels are designed for polar navigation and feature onboard Science Centers, where guests can engage with real-time research, citizen science projects, and expert-led lectures.

Each expedition is guided by a handpicked team of scientists, naturalists, historians, and expedition leaders who bring the destination to life through daily landings, Zodiac cruises, hiking excursions, and wildlife encounters. Guests may find themselves kayaking through icy fjords, walking among penguin colonies, or spotting polar bears on the ice.

Onboard life blends comfort and Nordic-inspired design with a focus on sustainability and local culture. Cabins are well-appointed, cuisine is locally sourced where possible, and the atmosphere is informal yet enriching. The experience is deeply personal, educational, and environmentally conscious.

Hurtigruten Expeditions appeals to curious, responsible travellers who seek authentic connections with nature, cultures, and fellow explorers. With a strong dedication to protecting the places it visits and a deep respect for local communities, Hurtigruten sets a benchmark for modern expedition cruising. Whether journeying to the ends of the Earth or discovering lesser-known gems, each voyage with Hurtigruten is a meaningful adventure shaped by discovery, understanding, and purpose.
