Hurtigruten Expands Adventure Travel Offerings
Norwegian-based cruise line Hurtigruten is expanding its adventure-related Explorer Program. In 2016 it will sail four different ships (up from two this year) on expedition voyages, and will stretch its Arctic program to Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada starting 2017. Guests will be able to explore the Amazon or sail the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of South America.
It also will triple the number of berths to Antarctica, dedicate a ship for more extreme voyages, and refurbish four of its Norwegian Coastal Voyage ships.
