Poseidon Expeditions

Poseidon Expeditions was established in 1999, initially focusing on providing icebreaker cruises to the North Pole aboard the legendary 50 Years of Victory, one of the world’s most powerful nuclear-powered icebreakers. With its roots in polar exploration, the company quickly gained recognition for delivering extraordinary voyages to some of the planet’s most remote and pristine regions.
Today, Poseidon Expeditions has expanded its offerings to include immersive journeys to both the Arctic and Antarctica. Its cruises blend adventure, education, and comfort, offering travelers the unique opportunity to witness polar wildlife, towering icebergs, and stunning glacial landscapes — all while accompanied by expert naturalists, marine biologists, and historians. The line is known for its strong emphasis on environmental responsibility and its commitment to providing enriching expedition experiences through small-ship cruising. These expeditions provide opportunities to observe polar bears, penguins, whales, and walruses in their natural habitats. One of the key vessels in the fleet is the M/V Sea Spirit, a luxurious, ice-class expedition ship that accommodates a maximum of 114 passengers. The ship strikes a balance between exploration and comfort, featuring spacious suites, expert-led shore excursions, and informative onboard lectures.
The company remains committed to sustainable tourism practices and is actively engaged in initiatives that support polar conservation and scientific research. With over two decades of experience, a dedicated team of polar experts, and a passion for authentic exploration, the company offers travelers unforgettable access to the Earth’s final frontiers — all while promoting awareness and preservation of these fragile environments.
