Seabourn Expedition Cruises
Taking adventurous cruising to the next level …
Seabourn may not be new to expedition cruising but it is taking its adventurous ambitions to the next level with the building of two ultra-luxury purpose-built ships, the first of which, Seabourn Venture, is expected to set sail in 2021.
It has been offering expedition experiences to Antarctica since its first sailing in 2013, and the success of the program opened the door for similar optional experiences under the name Ventures by Seabourn.
These feature Zodiacs, kayaks, and guided hikes in a number of desirable destinations around the world, including Alaska, Australia and New Zealand, South America, and Northern European destinations such as Norway and Greenland.
To reach some of the most coveted, remote destinations in the world, each ship will be constructed with the hardware and technology necessary to operate capably while delivering a guest experience filled with luxury comforts.
“Seabourn Venture is going to create lifetime memories for the adventurer that wants to go farther, into more remote destinations than they may have ever seen before“
Both vessels will have global deployment capabilities allowing them venture farther north and south than any ship in Carnival Corporation history, visiting many appealing warm and cool weather destinations along the way.
“The name Seabourn Venture is an exciting step in the process of launching even more immersive voyages designed specifically for the expedition traveller who dares to go beyond the norm in terms of destinations and experiences they seek,” says Richard Meadows, Seabourn’s president.
“Combined with the team of 26 experts that will bring the expedition experience to life, we are going to draw on our pedigree to deliver breathtaking experiences and I know Seabourn Venture is going to create lifetime memories for the adventurer that wants to go farther, into more remote destinations than they may have ever seen before.”
Seabourn Venture is scheduled to launch in June 2021, with a second yet-to-be-named sister ship launching 11 months later. Venture is currently planned to sail in the Arctic in late summer 2021, with a full summer season in Antarctica to follow.
