Hurtigruten Arctic Expedition Ships
Hurtigruten operates three ships in Arctic, the MS Fram, MS Fridtjof, MS Spitsbergen and MS Maud

Recently refurbished, it features spacious outside decks ideal for wildlife watching while you sail. The onboard science center has been expanded with new technology, offering more ways for you to get involved.
MS Fridtjof Nansen The newest addition to Hurtigruten’s fleet of ships, the Fridtjof Nansen is the second custom -built hybrid ships. Onboard you’ll find comfortable and modern cabins and suites, all of which have an outside view. When you’re not ashore, make use of the gyms and running track, or head to the wellness centre for some relaxation.
MS Maud This cosy ship has been part of the fleet for 20 years and is the perfect pace for exploring polar destinations. While the ship features everything you need for an enjoyable expedition, including a selection of restaurants and a science centre, its smaller size allows for it to get closer to the coat for spectacular views of your destinations
MS Spitsbergen Named after Svalbard’s main island, this ship’s maneuverability makes it perfect for exploring the archipelago’s fjords and islands. MS Spitsbergen has its own Expedition Team, ready to give interesting lectures as you sail.
