Our spectacular northbound World Cruise plies its way across oceans and hemispheres aboard the MS Fram, the newest, most luxurious expedition cruise ship in the hurtigruten fleet. From antarctica and South america in the southwest to africa and europe in the northeast, you will call at dozens of intriguing international ports and destinations along the way.
Choose from six equally incredible itineraries en route. To the awe-inspring antarctic and haunting South atlantic isles. From chic South american cities to exotic Cape Verde, just shy of africa. On, to the Canary Islands, warm far-flung bits of Spain off the coast of Morocco. From sunny Madeira, home of the famed vintage, to historical lisbon, Portugal. between myriad seaports of the baltic Sea. and from hip hamburg, via the incomparable british Isles, to breathtaking, scenic Iceland.
Sail one, sail several—whichever itinerary segments you choose, you’ll cruise at optimal times of year, following the sun from summer in the Southern hemisphere to springtime on the northern high seas.
