    The highlights of this cruise

    Your ship - HANSEATIC spirit

    The new expedition class

    The naming ceremony of the HANSEATIC spirit took place off the coast of Helgoland on 24 August 2021. Together with its structurally identically sister ships HANSEATIC inspiration (2019) and HANSEATIC spirit (2019), the small and state-of-the-art expedition ship explores remote destinations and visits the world’s most fascinating natural landscapes on challenging routes.

    The new expedition class – which offers space for a maximum of 230 guests (or 199 guests on Antarctic cruises and Spitsbergen circumnavigations) – sets standards in terms of variety, comfort and personal space. This is why our ship has more open deck space than any other expedition ship. Find out more!

    Cruising through Chile’s fjords and the Strait of Magellan

    Discover the untouched wonders of the southern fjords of Chile, a world where the icy blue of the glaciers and the dramatic wilderness meet. Admire the majestic Bernal Glacier, proudly adorning the backdrop in silent grandeur, and visit the picturesque town of Puerto Natales, the gateway to the famous Torres del Paine National Park. Experience the exciting journey through the Kirke Narrows, which with its narrowness and unpredictable currents presents a challenging passage, before immersing yourself in the Strait of Magellan, known for its historical significance and as a natural gateway to the Antarctic continent. Crossing between the Tucker Islands and through the fjords surrounded by the sublime Andes, you will be presented with unforgettable impressions and encounters with the unique flora and fauna of this remote part of the world.

    Falkland Islands

    A dream destination for birdwatchers. The British Overseas Territory is home to over 60 bird species such as the endemic Falkland pipit, as well as striated caracaras, Cape petrels and king cormorants. Black-browed albatrosses and wandering albatrosses make skilful use of the wind to sail through the air without flapping their wings. Aside from the birdlife, there are also impressive traces of an eventful history to see.

    South Georgia

    As soon as this subantarctic animal paradise comes into view, mighty glaciers and fjords will captivate you. Bustling colonies of king penguins carpet the coasts and steep slopes. Hundreds of thousands of animals share the island with elephant seals and fur seals. After landing on one of the black shores of South Georgia, your adventures will be filled with bellowing fur seals and squabbling penguins. You’ll keep returning to the footsteps of Sir Ernest Shackleton, who found his final resting place on South Georgia in 1922.

    South Shetland Islands , Weddell Sea , Antarctic Peninsula

    SOUTH SHETLAND ISLANDS AND ANTARCTIC PENINSULA
    The South Shetland Islands form a long chain in the ocean. The legendary Elephant Island is where Shackleton’s team held out for months. Jagged crags loom fiercely on the horizon and the evening sun casts a delicate pink glow over the snowfields. Only small expedition ships are able to sail into the flooded caldera of Deception Island. Accompanied by the creaking of the ice, venture onwards to the Antarctic Peninsula. Majestic glaciers and gigantic icebergs glint in Paradise Bay. Another impressive sight awaits in the Lemaire Channel, where mountains up to 1,000 m (3,281 ft) high line the spectacular shipping passage. Look forward to some thrilling moments.

    ANTARCTIC SOUND AND WEDDELL SEA
    A mystical icy world lies in the Antarctic Sound and at the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula. There are new scenes to feast your eyes on and catch on camera every day from the deck and Zodiacs. The numerous tabular icebergs are particularly spectacular and will astound you with their size, shape and colour. In one of the world’s most remote and most challenging expedition areas, the tuya volcano (flat-topped volcano) Brown Bluff makes an amazing sight in clear weather, for example. Its brown tuff cliffs towering over 700 m (2,297 ft) tall are a formidable sight rising between two mighty glaciers.
