HX Expeditions is a cruise line with over 130 years of waterborne heritage under the Hurtigruten name. The expedition fleet comprises six ships, ranging from the intimate 90-guest Galápagos vessel Santa Cruz II to the state-of-the-art, custom-built ship MS Fridtjof Nansen. Each is superbly built to navigate around a particular region, from the ice-capped North and South Poles to the tropical waters of the Galápagos Islands, the Americas and beyond. The onboard learning experience is second-to-none as HX Expeditions seeks to inspire and educate guests through an immersive Science Centre, which hosts several citizen science programmes designed to deepen understanding and knowledge of the areas where each voyage takes place.

In their own words, HX Expeditions don’t just take you to the edge of Antarctica, they kayak right up to it. They don’t just sail past the Galápagos, they snorkel respectfully with the amazing marine life. This cruise line cast a new perspective on places, cultures, and wildlife. They do so in typical Scandinavian style and with the comfort you would expect from a luxury expedition cruise line.
