Oceanwide Expeditions announces 365 days all year round Arctic program
“We proudly present our 365 days all year round Arctic program. Dates & Rates for Arctic 2021 are now available for Hondius (170 passengers), Ortelius, Plancius (both with 108 passengers), Rembrandt van Rijn (33 passengers), and Noorderlicht (20 passengers).”
The good news: the Euro rates for all June 2021 departures onboard our motor vessel voyages have not increased. Our polar expedition voyages focus on nature, wildlife, and activities in Spitsbergen, Northeast Greenland, and Northern Norway. We have added new themes and activities to our portfolio.
What is new?
We would like to highlight the below new voyages:
• PLA01-21, In search of Bowhead Whales & Polar Bear voyage (7 nights) with distinct focus on approaching wildlife in the sea ice silently.
• HDS04-21, HDS05-21 & HDS06-21, Extended North/South Spitsbergen voyages in search of Polar Bear & Ice (9 nights) with more time budget for wildlife observation & ice navigation.
• OTL04-21 & OTL05-21, North Spitsbergen ´Basecamp´ voyages (7 nights) offering free activities, such as kayaking, snowshoe / hiking and photo workshops. Diving will be supplemented and is only suitable for experienced divers.
• RVR11-21 & RVR12-21, North Norway ´Hike, Kayak & Sail´ voyages (7 nights) offering experiential kayak skills progression camps aimed at small learning groups using brandnew industry leading kayak equipment .
• RVR13-21, RVR14-21 & RVR15-21 North Norway ´Ski & Sail´ voyages (7 nights) have been expanded.
Due to the great success of our ‘Aurora Borealis’ voyages with s/v Rembrandt van Rijn and s/v Noorderlicht (7 nights) in North Norway, we will continue to offer departures in the winter months from November till April making us the only polar operator with a 365 days all year round expedition cruise program in the Arctic.
Later in the season, our vessels will operate in the Scoresbysund, which is a popular destination ideally suited for activity minded passengers and photographers. With Rembrandt van Rijn we offer passenger exchange in Nerlerit Inaat (Constable Pynt) and flights to and from Keflavik.
Detailed day by day programs will be available in early January 2020.
