Norwegian cruise operator Hurtigruten Expeditions is set to offer a series of three Pole-to-Pole cruises that will cross four different continents and stop off at more than 100 different landing sites during their epic journey.

Visiting destinations such as Alaska, Iceland, Greenland, the Northwest Passage, South America and Antarctica, the sailings will also cross locations such as the Arctic Circle and the Panama Canal.

“These are undoubtedly the most unique and exclusive expedition cruises we have ever offered in our 126-year history, and we believe these are the ultimate expedition cruise experiences,” said Hurtigruten Expeditions’ CEO, Asta Lassesen.

“These extraordinary voyages will showcase some of the most spectacular nature and wildlife on our planet and offer authentic encounters with unique cultures.”

Two of the Pole-to-Pole itineraries are being offered on what have been dubbed as “the world’s most sustainable cruise ships”, with the small-sized battery-hybrids MS Roald Amundsen and MS Fridtjof Nansen. The third Pole-to-Pole expedition is offered by the custom-build expedition original, the MS Fram.

All three adventures will set sail in August 2023, with the journey lasting 66, 93 or 94 days depending on the sailing.
