ARCTIC ADVENTURE

The first of Seabourn’s new ultra-luxury expedition ships, Seabourn Venture, has welcomed its first guests on board for a 12-day Northern Isles expedition, departing Tromsø, Norway, for the Arctic. The ship’s inaugural season includes a series of 12- to 15-day voyages exploring the Arctic, Greenland, Iceland, and the Canadian Arctic Archipelago in Nunavut. Seabourn Venture has a new innovative design, created specifically for the ultra-luxury expedition traveller, and has many impressive features including two custom-built submarines, capable of exploring shipwrecks and natural wonders under the sea in luxurious comfort; kayaks and Zodiacs; an Expedition Lounge and Discovery Centre, plus a Constellation Lounge, the highest indoor viewing point with 270-degree views. It is staffed with a world-class 26-person Expedition Team whose role is to give guests the most from expeditions on land and at sea. seabourn.com
