            Atlas Ocean Voyages is a member of the International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators (IAATO), a member organization founded in 1991 to advocate and promote the practice of safe and environmentally responsible private-sector travel to the Antarctic. Safety is the basic building block of World Navigator and the ship is rated Polar Category C and Ice Class 1B and utilizes underwater forward-looking radar to confidently ply icy polar waters. 

            Additionally, the ship’s exclusive, alternate hydrojet propulsion system helps World Navigator quietly cruise into wildlife-rich Antarctic harbors and calderas without disturbing marine animals. Guests will be able to see Antarctic wildlife closer from World Navigator’s Water’s Edge Lookout, the lowest expedition ship’s bow observation area in the industry and the only one with heated benches for extended marine-life spotting and admiring the pristine Antarctic scenery. Atlas Ocean Voyages’ ships are also among the first to employ the latest conservation and sustainability technologies – leaving nothing behind but footprints in the snow – to help preserve the breathtaking locales and waters they ply for future generations to enjoy. 

            Atlas Ocean Voyages is an all-inclusive, luxury travel brand that will be defined by simple elegance and will deliver authentic, thrilling, and once-in-a-lifetime Luxe-AdventureSM experiences in the world’s most sought-after and remote destinations. Adventurers and like-spirited travelers will find community aboard Atlas Ocean Voyages’ small, expedition ships and come together in welcoming and lively venues to share their day’s exploits. Guests stay in one of 98 luxe suites and staterooms, all with an ocean view and most with a private balcony. All Atlas Ocean Voyages journeys include complimentary gratuities; alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages; L’Occitane bath amenities; Wi-Fi; a free shore excursion in select ports on every itinerary; coffee and tea service in every room; meals and snacks; and butler service in suites; as well as parkas for guests to take home and wet-landing boots for use aboard polar itineraries.
