Antarctica cruises * Arctic Cruises * Greenland Cruises * Svalbard Cruises * Polar Expeditions Oceanwide Expeditions is one of the pioneers in ship-based exploratory tourism in the Arctic and Antarctica. We organize expedition style cruises to the Arctic (Greenland, Svalbard) and North Atlantic, as well as cruises to the Antarctic and Sub-Atlantic Islands. We own, manage and operate the following vessels: m/v Janssonius (170 pax), m/v Hondius (170 pax), m/v Plancius (108 pax), m/v Ortelius (108 pax), and s/v Rembrandt van Rijn (33 pax). The vessels comply with highest international safety standards and allow our professional crew to navigate safely through pack-ice and remote narrow waterways. The size, capacity and capability of our small ships have proven to be a successful formula for exploring the remote regions for many years. Our expedition vessels offer a comfortable, friendly, intimate and informal atmosphere. Our ships are not luxurious cruise vessels, but accommodation and on-board life are cozy and comfortable. Our voyages are primarily defined as explorations and we spend as much time ashore as possible. We can be flexible, taking advantage of wildlife opportunities by using our zodiacs for both landings and cruises. Our knowledgeable guides assist on these outings, providing detailed information. This is supplemented by lectures on board which covers topics such as geology, wildlife and history. While cruising and hiking in the Polar regions, we are sure that you will become increasingly fascinated by these unique wildernesses, places of drama, wildlife, history and true emotion.
