The Heritage Adventurer is a true expedition vessel of exceptional quality and design. Built in 1991, this 140-guest expedition vessel was purpose built for polar expeditions. Combining a high passenger ship ice class rating (1A Super) and a rich expedition history including most of the northern and southern Arctic and Antarctic, the Adventurer superimposes the notion of a truly tried and tested expedition vessel.
