About HX Expeditions

HX — formerly Hurtigruten Expeditions — sails Antarctica, the Arctic, Svalbard, Greenland and the Northwest Passage on purpose-built hybrid-powered expedition ships with science centres and a full team of expedition guides.

Ships carry 500 guests or fewer, so everyone lands with the Zodiacs. The science centre runs citizen-science projects you can take part in, and lectures come from biologists, glaciologists and historians rather than entertainers. Fares typically include a wind and water-resistant jacket, loan of boots and trekking poles, and the landings themselves. Alongside the polar programme, Norway's coastal voyages and the Galapagos complete the range.

Hybrid-powered ships

Battery-assisted engines that cut emissions and let you sail quietly into a fjord.

Everyone lands

Small guest numbers mean a Zodiac place on every landing.

Science centre

Citizen-science projects, microscopes and lectures from working scientists.

Kit included

Expedition jacket to keep, plus boots and poles on loan.

HX Expeditions questions, answered

November to March. December and January give the longest days and the most penguin activity.
How fit do I need to be?+
Reasonably mobile — landings involve stepping into a Zodiac and walking on uneven ground.
Are flights included?+
Antarctic voyages usually include the charter flight to Ushuaia from Buenos Aires; we'll confirm per sailing.
