Between Advent, Christmas and the New Year, the small luxury and expedition ships will take guests on routes from the Caribbean islands and the Indian Ocean through Nordic winter landscapes all the way to the Antarctic.
Whether it’s Christmas morning on Saint-Barthelemy, New Year’s Eve off Barbados or ringing in the New Year amidst spectacular ice-covered landscapes, these cruises combine a personal atmosphere, special encounters and individual freedom with luxury and expedition experiences of the highest standard.
As the cold, snow and candlelight turn our thoughts inwards, Hapag-Lloyd Cruises opens up new perspectives on the special days between Advent and the New Year. A Christmas morning on Saint-Barthelemy, New Year’s Eve off Barbados, Advent among the tropical islands of the Indian Ocean or the turn of the year surrounded by the icy landscapes of the Antarctic: on cruises between Advent and the start of the new year, these luxury and expedition ships combine extraordinary destinations around the globe with a personal atmosphere, inspiring encounters and individual experiences.
Amidst the magic of Advent, the festive season and the turn of the year, memories are made that will linger long after the celebrations are over.
