You’ll have the opportunity to venture into this world of ice and witness its incredible wildlife, including vast colonies of penguins.

Every day will offer something different as Poseidon will run your cruise with a focus on exploring as much as possible.

In addition to the standard landings programme, Poseidon also offer kayaking, camping on ice and other adventure activities, enquire with your Polar Routes Travel Specialist for more information.

When you are not exploring, you can enjoy the facilities of their ship, the Sea Spirit. Carrying just 114 passengers she is not only small, but also very comfortable. She boasts all-suite accommodation and even the lead-in category has over 21m2 of room including a sofa area and private bathroom. In the public areas, enjoy delicious cuisine in the ship’s restaurant and a drink at the well-stocked bar complete with piano. On the top deck, the ship can take advantage of any good weather and host a BBQ plus you will also find a hot tub - a gin & tonic in here while watching the icebergs pass you by, is a must!
