The Hanseatic has a passion for finding new territory.

Enjoy your very own personal expedition on the MS Hanseatic; with a background of 5 star service you can expect an unforgettable trip.  With a passenger capacity of 175, we provide a particularly exclusive atmosphere and a markedly large supply of personal space.  Each of our cabins and suites include a magnificent view of our journey as well as a flat screen TV with DVD player, WIFI and personal email. Watch as the front view camera displays images of the ship entering each harbor right on your flat screen! Unwind further with libations provided by the mini bar where all nonalcoholic drinks are free of charge and recall your diverse discoveries and impressions in a relaxed frame of mind. Share your impressions with like-minded guests and experts in the Observation Lounge with a 180° panoramic view and piano music in the evenings.  Laptops and microscopes are available for loan and will help you to enhance your experiences.  You can rent a bicycle and go off your own adventure or rent expedition equipment: parkas, rubber boots, Nordic Walking poles, snorkeling equipment and fishing rods (on a loan basis).  If you would rather stay inside, you can visit our fitness room with ocean view, sauna, whirlpool and temperature controlled swimming pool.  The Hanseatic was designed for worldwide expedition cruising, and its ice-reinforced hull allows the Hanseatic to sail to both the Antarctic and the Arctic. On the Hanseatic we provide our passengers with a taste of two worlds: Luxury Cruising and Adventure Cruising.  Enjoy your very personal expedition, spellbound by fascinating views of the sea or enthralling expert presentations.
