Seabourn, the leader in luxury travel and maritime expeditions, has unveiled its 2026 itineraries, offering travelers a unique opportunity to explore the Northwest Passage and the Canadian Arctic aboard Seabourn Venture. Between August and October 2026, six new voyages, ranging from eight to 24 days, will allow modern explorers to follow in the footsteps of the great polar expeditions before continuing their adventure to the Caribbean, South America and Antarctica.
A Deep Dive into the Heart of the Great North
Seabourn Venture will offer two 24-day Grand Expeditions through the Northwest Passage, connecting Reykjavik, Iceland, to Anchorage, Alaska, with departures scheduled for August 5 and 29. Another 15-day cruise, entitled “Labrador Wild Coast: Missions, Fjords & Wilderness”, will depart on September 20 from Reykjavik to Halifax, Nova Scotia.
For an even more immersive experience, two combination tours will be available: a 35-day “Glaciers, Fjords & Northwest Passage” voyage and a 38-day “Northwest Passage & Labrador Wild Coast” adventure.
These exceptional cruises will offer unforgettable stops:
- Devon Island, the largest uninhabited island in the world, nicknamed “Mars on Earth” for its arid and mineral landscape.
- Cambridge Bay, where travelers will be able to meet indigenous peoples and discover their culture and traditions.
- Historic remains of the Canadian Mounted Police and Hudson’s Bay Company posts, lost in the isolated islets of the Arctic.
- Ilulissat, in Greenland, once called “The City of 10,000 Souls”, where sled dogs outnumbered people.
Passengers will also enjoy exceptional experiences such as kayaking excursions, scuba diving and helicopter flights over the ice fjords. For photography enthusiasts, the Image Masters program will offer an exclusive small-group workshop with a professional photographer.
From the Far North to the Exotic Beaches and Ice of Antarctica
After these Arctic adventures, Seabourn Venture will set sail south in October 2026, offering three fascinating itineraries:
- “Southern Caribbean Yatch Ports” (8 days, Halifax to Barbados): an intimate cruise to St. Lucia and Carambola Beach.
- “Trinidad to Rio: South American Expedition” (16 days, Barbados to Rio de Janeiro): a voyage along the vibrant Brazilian coast.
- “Wild South Atlantic and Antarctic Peninsula” (21 days, Rio de Janeiro to Buenos Aires): a transition to Antarctica for a season of polar exploration.
Two combination itineraries will also be available: a 24-day tour that combines the Caribbean and Brazil, and a 37-day odyssey that connects the warm waters of the tropics with the ice of Antarctica.
Luxury and exploration: a perfect match
Each voyage will be guided by an expedition team of 23 experts, scientists and naturalists, offering personalized support during Zodiac excursions, hikes and wildlife encounters.
The Seabourn Venture, designed to PC6 Polar Class standards, is a true technological and luxurious jewel, offering 30,000 square feet of outdoor space and panoramic lounges with 270-degree views. Its 4K GSS Cineflex camera system allows passengers to observe the surrounding nature live on the ship’s screens. In addition, an improved Wi-Fi connection thanks to SpaceX Starlink will ensure a seamless connection to the outside world.
Seabourn Venture promises an unforgettable adventure, combining extreme comfort and exploration of the most remote regions of the planet. An irresistible invitation to realize the dream of every modern explorer.
