Seabourn
The ultra-luxury expedition ship Seabourn Pursuit debuted in August 2023 with 24 Zodiacs, kayaks and two custom-built submarines, all the better to explore the remote terrain of the South Pacific, Antarctica and spots far off the beaten track.

Seabourn
In my view, if you are seeking a luxurious, pampered and intimate cruising experience the Odyssey Class ships in the Seabourn fleet, including Seabourn Sojourn, should be on your short list. Hosting just 450 guests, it's a very social ship with both the crew and passengers being encouraged to mix and get to know each other.
