Now, with Seabourn, you can be among the first to savour a new e ra of ultra-luxury expedition travel. Elevated to a higher level. Combining authentic, exhilarating adventures in remote destinations… with the uncompromising, sophisticated amenities of the world’s finest resorts at sea.
We began offering expedition experiences during our first sailing to Antarctica in 2013 led by a highly qualified, world- class expedition team, and those itineraries have been offered every season since. This success opened the door for our ‘Ventures by Seabourn’ programme, featuring Zodiacs, kayaks, and guided hikes to enhance destinations such as Alaska, Australia & New Zealand, South America, Norway and Greenland.
Having entered service in July 2022, Seabourn Venture represents a new era in expedition cruising, designed for those whose appetite for unique experiences is matched by a taste for ultra-luxury amenities. With just 132 luxurious ocean-front suites onboard, guests will explore the world’s most exquisite destinations in Seabourn’s incomparable elegance and ease. A sister ship Seabourn Pursuit arrived in 2023.
Designed and built for diverse environments to PC6 Polar Class standards, both ships feature a new innovative design, incorporating many features that have made Seabourn ships so successful. Two custom-built, 6-seater submarines provide an unforgettable view of the world beneath the ocean’s surface, a complement of kayaks and 24 Zodiacs can accommodate all guests at once, allowing for a truly immersive experience… all alongside a crew that includes an outstanding and well-travelle d expedition team comprised of highly regarded wilderness experts, scientists, historians and naturalists.
Seabourn Venture’s 2024 and 2026 seasons include expeditions to the Arctic, Antarctica and the Amazon where you may cruise i n Zodiacs under teeming bird cliffs and along jungle rivers, kaya k among stately icebergs and tropical coral islands. Visit Viking ruins, ancient Inca sites and remote villages. View whales, wal rus and seals up close and cruise in submarines past vivid reef wal ls and towering underwater ice cliffs. Snorkel unspoilt tropical coral gardens glittering with iridescent fish, trek to earth-sh aking waterfalls and shining blue-white glaciers.
