Exclusive delights, wherever and whenever you please

The spacious HANSEATIC Restaurant of the new expedition class redefines on-board cuisine. From breakfast to dinner, experience our endless variety of creative cuisine at any time of day. Where your ship drops anchor, our top chefs will look to local specialities and conjure up for your plate the aromas of South Africa, the far north, or Europe. Daily changing menus will send your taste buds on a global tour of discovery – accompanied by a selection of wines to suit every palate.

Our speciality restaurants will whisk you away to a very special culinary region. Exploring the world has never tasted so good!

On the HANSEATIC inspiration, fine Japanese creations and Peru's modern trendy cuisine meet in the delightful ambience of the Nikkei.

The sun on your skin, the wind in your hair, salt on your lips

Expeditions bring you particularly close to the elements. The same applies to our Lido Restaurant. Have breakfast under an open sky, or enjoy a juicy steak cooked to perfection on the large outdoor barbecue – garnished with breathtaking panoramic views. Watch our gourmet chefs at work in the open show kitchen or head straight to the ice cream station for dessert. And why not? After all, the daily grind is far away.

Land on a secluded island in a Zodiac and enjoy barbecued fish and chilled drinks with your feet in the sand. Or celebrate with a glass of champagne against a stunning icy backdrop. Our service and ingenuity continue ashore – with a barbecue on the beach, a reception in the ice or exotic delicacies in the depths of the rainforest. This is the feeling of true expedition. This is the taste of true delight.

The glass balcony beneath your feet allows you to hover above the water and reveals the endless expanse and beauty of the ocean. Watch whales and large porpoises as they follow the ship, thrilling you as they leap and swim. Being so close to creation is an indescribable feeling.

The deck tour at the bow offers extraordinarily intensive experiences: when whales jump for joy and polar bears take an icy bath, you will be the first to see these fascinating natural spectacles.

Stroll the spacious decks and feel the stars almost within reach – the terraced Observation Deck with a panoramic view is but one place to fulfil your dream. You can also quench your thirst for adventure in the comfortable surroundings of the Observation Lounge. The large full-glass windows provide a 180-degree view of the moon and sea while you reflect on your unforgettable travel days over a glass of wine.

Library

You are welcome to borrow a book on board at any time. Our library is located in the Observation Lounge (Deck 8) and is stocked with a selection of the latest fiction books, travel literature and information about the cruising area.

Located on Deck 4.

Post

The Reception staff will post your postcards and letters from all ports where this facility is available. Your onboard account will be debited with the appropriate charges.

Announcements

To create the full expedition experience, commentaries are provided for interesting passages during the cruise and special animal sightings are reported. The ship’s position is reported in the morning on days at sea. We will also announce via the loudspeakers when the local authorities have cleared the ship and we can go ashore. The volume can be controlled individually in each cabin/suite.

Means of payment

The on-board currency is the euro. An account will be set up for you so that you can make cashless payments during the cruise. You can find out your current account balance at any time using the infotainment system in your cabin/suite. You can then settle the entire account at Reception at the end of your cruise. We accept German EC/Maestro cards and the following credit cards: Mastercard, American Express and Visa. You can also pay in cash. Please note that, in general, foreign currencies cannot be changed on board.

Earn your sea legs

"Landlubbers" will be made into little "mariners" on board - visit the captain on the bridge and take part in question-and-answer sessions with the officers for exciting insights into seafaring - from reading nautical and bathymetric charts to navigating and using the radar and sonar.

Broaden your horizons

See the raw materials of the sea with your own eyes. For example, research ore that is millions of years old under the microscope as you study geological marine deposits. Studying microfossils under the microscope also provides compelling insights into the history of the oceans.

Enjoy XXL holiday fun

Roll the cameras for the cinema evening - just for kids. With popcorn, of course. Order a pizza with the works during the pizza evening. And if you're a talented scout, you might have a chance at winning the rally through the ship. Full of variety! As holidays should be.

The program, which is specially designed for teenagers, awakens and encourages the curiosity of young explorers. With a little nautical knowledge on board, on Zodiac excursions, during activities on land or while using a microscope, acquiring knowledge in the areas of oceanography, geology and geography becomes fun among peers. In addition to an experienced scientific expert, numerous crew members ensure that knowledge is imparted in an age-appropriate manner - from the captain to the navigation officer and the ship's cook. The many discoveries and experiences make every day of the vacation a real adventure.

Learn seaman's jargon - "Landlubbers" become little "sailors" on board - your visit to the captain on the bridge and the question and answer sessions with the officers give you exciting insights into seafaring: from reading a sea and depth chart to explanations of navigation, radar and depth sounder.

Expand your knowledge - You can discover the raw materials of the sea with your own eyes. For example, millions of years old ores are examined under the microscope to explore the topic of "geological marine deposits'. Examining microfossils under the microscope also gives you a fascinating insight into the history of the oceans.

XXL holiday fun - "Action!" is the motto at the cinema evening just for kids. With popcorn, of course. You can order "One pizza with everything!" at the pizza evening. And if you have a talent for tracking, you might win the rally through the ship. Lots of variety! That's what holidays should be like.
