Three Pole-to-Pole cruises exploring the planet all the way from the extreme north to the deep south have been unveiled for 2023, following on from two sold-out Pole-to-Pole sailings this year.
The Pole-to-Pole Cruises combine iconic bucket-list destinations such as Alaska, Iceland, Greenland, the Northwest Passage, South America and Antarctica – with crossings such as the Arctic Circle, the Panama Canal and the Drake Passage.

“These are undoubtedly the most unique and exclusive expedition cruises we have ever offered in our 126-year history, and we believe these are the ultimate expedition cruise experiences,” said Asta Lassesen, CEO Hurtigruten Expeditions.”These extraordinary voyages will showcase some of the most spectacular nature and wildlife on our planet and offer authentic encounters with unique cultures.”
