World Voyager: Ship Details and Overview


Photo of World Voyager

World Voyager is a sleek, modern boutique-style expedition vessel designed for immersive polar discovery combined with refined comfort and environmental stewardship.

Built in the early 2020s, the ship offers an intimate capacity of around 168 passengers, with every suite featuring a private balcony that brings the dramatic vistas of Antarctica directly into your cabin experience.

Its Scandinavian-inspired interior blends minimalism with Art Deco elegance, creating calm, stylish spaces that complement the raw, icy landscapes you’ll encounter. A glass-domed Observation Lounge and panoramic outdoor Water’s Edge deck with heated seating provide unrivalled spots for sea watching, wildlife spotting, and glacier gazing.

World Voyager is also equipped with a dedicated Science Hub, where guests can connect with resident researchers and expedition guides for hands-on learning, presentations, and live insight into the polar environment. Healthy living is supported through a gym, outdoor track, spa and sauna, as well as outdoor heated pool and Jacuzzis for relaxation after shore excursions.

A seasoned expedition team facilitates Zodiac cruising, shore landings, and optional adventure activities that bring you closer to Antarctic ecosystems, while hybrid propulsion and waste-conversion technologies reflect the vessel’s commitment to sustainable expedition cruising.
