Our expedition fleet consists of small, agile ships, and hybrid-powered vessels. All are modern ice-class ships suitable for polar sailing. On board, guests will experience an informal, welcoming atmosphere, comfortable cabins, luxurious suites, and stylish interiors made from natural materials.
Since 1896, exploration has been at the heart of the HX experience. From our small boats (RIBs) and optional activities, including kayaking, hiking, snorkeling, snowshoeing, and more, to our state-of-the-art onboard Science Center, guests are immersed in amazing landscapes, get up close to rare wildlife, and encounter unique cultures.
Our Expedition Team is comprised of handpicked experts who know our destinations better than anyone. They organize and guide activities both on board and ashore, are accessible to guests, and share their vast knowledge of the areas we explore in their illuminating lectures.
As the largest expedition cruise company in the world, we are committed to ensuring that sustainability is at the core of all our operations. That’s why we built the world’s first ever hybrid electric–powered expedition cruise ships, were the first major travel company to remove single-use plastic from our entire fleet, and enhance the local communities we visit by sourcing our excursions and food locally.
Join HX on an expedition cruise of life changing experiences.
