MS Fridtjof Nansen
About MS Fridtjof Nansen
Embark on an immersive expedition with MS Fridtjof Nansen, launched in 2020. This vessel, with a capacity for 530 passengers and a substantial gross tonnage of 20,889 T, pays homage to the legendary Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen. Revered for his groundbreaking Arctic exploits, such as the inaugural crossing of Greenland, Nansen's spirit of exploration is intricately woven into the very essence of this ship.
Every expedition voyage is led by a dedicated Expedition Team of specialists and modern-day explorers, ensuring your safety, imparting knowledge on sustainability, and guiding you through a voyage of discovery. The vessel's rich and comfortable interior design reflects the stunning surroundings, featuring Scandinavian materials such as granite, oak, birch, and wool in relaxed and stylish cabins and public areas.
MS Fridtjof Nansen boasts three restaurants offering a diverse culinary experience drawing from Norwegian, Nordic, and international traditions. The Explorer Lounge & Bar provides an elegant space to relax and enjoy breathtaking views, while the Science Center is the heart of the onboard experience, fostering a deeper understanding of the areas explored through state-of-the-art technology.
In addition to standard outside cabins, 50% of which have private balconies, aft suites feature private outdoor hot tubs with spectacular views. The wellness center offers rejuvenating treatments, and the fitness room ensures you stay active. The Pool Bar and various specialty restaurants, including Lindstrøm, Fredheim, and Aune, cater to all tastes, complemented by the option to enjoy a meal in your cabin.
Join us on board as we navigate the polar regions and embark on a journey inspired by the spirit of exploration and the legacy of Fridtjof Nansen.
