Seabourn Venture Inaugural Season

The itineraries for the inaugural season for Seabourn’s first ultra-luxury purpose-built expedition ship - Seabourn Venture - have been announced. Offering all ocean-front veranda suites, Seabourn Venture will combine ultra-luxury expedition cruising and exhilarating adventures. The new itineraries, ranging from seven to 22 days, offer ample opportunities to discover diverse wildlife and learn about each region’s history and culture. The ship will visit more than 150 destinations across the globe – many of which few travellers have ever visited. 

Following the ship’s delivery in June 2021, Seabourn Venture will kick off its maiden season in Northern Europe and the Arctic. The 264-passenger vessel will spend the rest of the season exploring the Arctic, sailing on five 10- to 15-day voyages, visiting many far-flung locations in Svalbard, the North Cape and other Norwegian ports. Other destinations include Iceland, Greenland and the Canadian Arctic Archipelago - the most remote and least-populated destinations explored during Seabourn Venture’s Arctic season. 

Following these voyages the ship will make its way south in October 2021, stopping at various exotic locales in Bermuda, the Caribbean, Panama Canal, Columbia, Ecuador, Peru and Chile. During three 10- to 14-day voyages, there will be opportunities to explore in Zodiacs under teeming bird cliffs, kayak among tropical coral islands, visit ancient Inca sites, and snorkel unspoiled Caribbean coral gardens glittering with iridescent fish. 

Beginning in November 2021, Seabourn Venture will spend the austral summer season in the White Continent. The ship will offer nine exhilarating voyages, spanning 11 to 22 days, and provide the ultimate authentic experience in the Antarctic Peninsula; as well as South Georgia and the Falkland Islands. Guests can experience these amazing surroundings by Zodiac, kayak or even from the unique submarine perspective of the underwater world; view different species of penguins, seals and whales; visit sites of historical and geological interest; gain first-hand insights into regional scientific research; plus enjoy scenic cruising of spectacular waterways and navigable passages. 

Between March and April 2022, Seabourn Venture will set sail on a series of five seven- to 12-day expedition voyages in the Amazon, where guests cruise in Zodiacs along the Amazon River and visit ancient sites and indigenous Amazon villages. The voyages will explore a variety of environments shaped and differentiated by the Amazon River itself.
