The 12-passenger vessel resumed operations April 9 from Gothenburg, Sweden with Capt. Magnus Reteike setting course for Bergen, Norway.
Remarked Marie Lannborn Barker, MD, PolarQuest, ‘We feel relieved and grateful to get started after two long years of the COVID-19 pandemic.
‘Now we enjoy being able to do what we love the most – to offer five-star nature experiences in some of the world’s most remote and magnificent destinations.
‘For PolarQuest and our travellers it will be an unforgettable reunion with Svalbard’s stunning nature.’
Prior to the pandemic, the line had operated cruises in Svalbard every year since 1999.
Itinerary
Over the course of one week, passengers will encounter some of Norway’s most noteworthy sites, including picturesque fishing villages and museums, participate in scenic hikes and explore Hardangerfjord.
PolarQuest’s initial voyage to Bergen will be followed by 57 polar expeditions with four different PolarQuest ships along the Norwegian coast and in Svalbard before the close of the season in November.
