Seabourn Venture

Seabourn Venture is Seabourn’s first purpose-built expedition ship, entering service in 2022 with a Polar Class 6 hull and all the comforts of the line’s ocean ships. She carries two custom submarines, a fleet of Zodiacs and kayaks, and an expedition team of scientists, naturalists and historians. Every suite has a veranda, and the onboard style is unmistakably Seabourn, with polished service, caviar on request and a convivial bar. She sails Antarctica, the Arctic and other remote regions, combining rugged adventure with genuine luxury. Expect early mornings for landings and evenings spent recapping the day’s sightings.

Best for: Luxury travelers who want an adventurous expedition to Antarctica or the Arctic with all the comforts of a top-tier ship.

Seabourn is an ultra-luxury line with small, all-suite ships that feel like private yachts, famous for warm, personal service, a stern watersports marina and signature events such as Caviar in the Surf. Fares include drinks, gratuities, Wi-Fi and dining, and its two expedition ships carry submarines to Antarctica and the Arctic. It suits affluent couples who want intimacy and polish, less so families or entertainment seekers.
