​Expedition Cruising
Vantage’s recently released expedition cruising itineraries offer fresh opportunities to see some of the most remote and exciting destinations in the world such as the Arctic, Antarctica and the Amazonas. New in 2023, Vantage will offer a shorter length Antarctic cruise with the same remarkable experiences. The Antarctic Express Expedition, a seven-night cruise, will begin sailing from Ushuaia, Argentina with fewer days at sea and two days in Antarctica. New sailings from Central and South America including Argentina, Peru, Panama, Costa Rica, Barbados and Chile have also been announced. These journeys enable travelers to spend more time enjoying experiences ashore and place a major emphasis on exploring natural habitats.

Small Ship Discovery Ocean Cruising
Small ship cruising with Vantage immerses guests in the coastal culture of centuries-old towns and villages aboard a deluxe small ship. Vantage will offer new chances to sail on luxurious ships, purpose-built for privacy, space and exclusive cruising to ports that are simply unavailable to other travel companies. New itineraries include stops in Greece, Slovenia, Argentina, Brazil, Spain, Portugal, Barbados, Bahamas, Scotland, Norway, Ireland and Sweden.

This season will mark Vantage’s first full season with two premier small ships, the Ocean Odyssey and Ocean Explorer.

Onboard, guests experience true luxury with a breadth of amenities including fine dining options, various lounges, a spa, a sauna and a state-of-the-art fitness center. The ships’ low passenger-to-crew ratio ensures guest satisfaction, and Vantage’s onboard Concierge caters to guests’ every need, both before and during the cruise. The ships are outfitted with the latest satellite, sustainability and navigation capabilities, including SOLAS “Safe Return to Port” requirements and ULSTEIN X-BOW® technology, a significant enhancement for smooth sailing in polar seas.
