Seabourn has scouted the world to deliver the most extraordinary experiences and create opportunities for unexpected Seabourn Moments that only an expedition can deliver, all without sacrificing ultra-luxury creature comforts. Guests will notice in many of these itineraries that Seabourn describes them solely as an “Experience” or note that they are subject to change. Embracing this flexibility allows Seabourn’s expedition team to be actively curating a voyage that is personalised to the guest, sure to move them closer and deeper to wildlife, history and new cultures than ever before. As with any Seabourn voyage, the ultra-luxury Expeditions aboard Seabourn Venture and Seabourn Pursuit are centered around authentic, personalised experiences, all facilitated by a 24-person Expedition team. This select group of academics, scientists and general naturalists share your client’s passion for exploring and learning about some of the world’s remote regions. Guests are welcome and encouraged to interact with the Expedition Team over the course of their voyage, from whale-spotting in the Bow Lounge to attending a lecture on the traditional SingSings they’ll experience in Papua New Guinea, as well as more informal touchpoints like meals together in the Colonnade and sharing stories in the Expedition Lounge.

For the 2025/2026 season, Seabourn spent the past several months scouting several new experiences, all of which the ultra-luxury cruise line are excited to share exclusively with Seabourn guests. Some of favourites are:

• Harvesting pearls in the Kimberley alongside a master pearl cultivator while overlooking Kuri Bay
• Spying polar bears atop Labrador in the Torngat Mountains National Park in the Canadian Arctic
• Attempting the passage of the Bellot Strait (twice!) and marveling at the abundant sea ice in every direction through the Northwest Passage
• Setting out for a night safari in the Amazon and spotting nocturnal predators like the black caiman stalking their prey along the banks
• Snorkeling and scuba diving the stunning coral reefs of Tonga and watching blacktip reef sharks snack on sardines

Seabourn has also added and enhanced some of its Seabourn experiences, unique to the remote climates that the brand’s purpose-built expedition ships can access, available on select sailings where Mother Nature permits:

• Caviar on Ice: Indulge in exquisite caviar and tartare service surrounded by the opulence of the glittering glaciers that flank Seabourn’s expansive viewing deck; or perhaps onboard a Zodiac cruise you’ll never forget.
• Moments that move you (Champagne Zodiac): As guests return to the ship from their thrilling Zodiac cruise, another Zodiac appears from behind an iceberg bearing congratulations and champagne for thirsty explorers. Guests forever tell people of this hidden gem; tucked away in the ice, never in the same place twice.
• Polar Plunge: Guests can grab their cozy robe and head down to the Landing Zone to cheer on their brave companions and perhaps indulge in some liquid courage to take the plunge themselves. For those daring enough to dive in, steaming cups of hot cocoa await, melting away the cold into a heartwarming memory.
• Kuri Bay Pearl Reveal: This is a moment to celebrate the wonder of nature’s hidden treasures over a glass of fine champagne. Travellers gather close to witness the delicate opening of an oyster, unveiling the gleaming pearl within.

These incredible experiences are all complemented by Seabourn’s “base camp” for each itinerary: an ultra-luxury, purpose-built expedition vessel in Seabourn Venture or her new sister, Seabourn Pursuit. For more information, visit Seabourn.com.
