Atlas Ocean Voyages’ newest expedition yacht World Traveller is planning unique extended voyages in the Arctic, Norwegian Fjords, Iceland, and Greenland this summer.
A 13- night expedition Aug. 6 and another 11-night journey starting Aug. 19 will sail round-trip from Longyearbyen, the world’s northernmost port. A 10-night expedition, Aug. 30, takes the ship from Spitsbergen to Iceland. World Traveller will then offer a 9-night Iceland circumnavigation, round-trip from Reykjavik, Sept. 9, before heading south Sept. 18 on an 8-night expedition to Edinburgh, Scotland, via the British Isles.
Depending on the itinerary, plans call for up to two outings daily, where guests can see wildlife and ice formations up-close via expedition Zodiac boats. A team comprised of naturalists, biologists, ornithologists, and scientists from other disciplines are on board to give guests a highly personalized learning experience. Rubber boots, binoculars, and walking sticks are provided for guests’ use during the expedition.
On board everything is luxury on the 200-guest Ice Class 1B-certified vessel that debuted in November 2022, featuring gourmet cuisine and spacious staterooms and suites. Prices start from $7,999, with the second guest sailing free.
