    The highlights of this cruise

    Salt on your lips and wind in your hair: that’s the North Sea. The HANSEATIC spirit transforms nearby coasts into fascinating new territory. A world port, Rotterdam will surprise you with its unique architectural scene on a city walk*. The magnificent promenade of Scheveningen, the largest coastal resort in the Netherlands, invites you to stroll along its string of bars, restaurants and beach clubs. Explore the picturesque sides of The Hague and Delft* from here. The convivial seaside town of Zeebrugge is timelessly beautiful. Take a stroll through romantic Brugge* and immerse yourself in the Middle Ages. Continue your explorations in an active way in the Wadden Sea on Texel. Take a trip on a shrimper* or explore the largest Wadden island on a horse-drawn carriage ride*. Sylt welcomes you to a dream landscape out in the sea. You can experience its most beautiful areas on a tour with a vintage bus*. Alternatively, explore the island’s biodiversity with a walk on the mudflats of Blidsel Bay*. Helgoland, breeding ground for numerous seabirds, greets you at the end of your cruise with its natural landmark: Lange Anna. Simply stunning – the north can be so beautiful.

    * The shore activities are not included in the cruise price and are in the planning stage. Subject to change.

    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!
