MS Bremen
Our expedition ship steals you away to parts of the world that will quench your thirst for adventure. The BREMEN, furnished with the maximum ice class for passenger ships (E4), is designed for expeditions far from civilisation in the polar regions. Thanks to her shallow draught she can also sail into the smallest harbours and bays as well as winding rivers. In addition, our 12 expedition-worthy, motor-powered dinghies, called zodiacs, enable you to go ashore even in the remotest regions.
The atmosphere on board is personal and familiar. The 164 guests are united by their excitement about their shared adventure and the friendly service crew enjoys working to make you feel at home. Worldly-wise experts enrich every expedition with their knowledge, experience and spirit of adventure and provide background inform-
ation on the places we head for both on shore and on board. In addition, you can develop your knowledge further in the library. In the restaurant with its big panoramic windows your palate will be indulged with sumptuous fare; the open-air pool and the little gym with a sauna invite you to relax. In addition, the comfortable, 18 square metre cabins will soon become your home from home – with 24-hour sea view.
All life stems from the sea, which is perhaps the reason why it fascinates mankind so much. With our cruisers, this fascination is boundless, since they are at home everywhere on the blue planet. The five-star-plus EUROPA is the first cruise ship being awarded five-star-plus by the Berlitz Cruise Guide from 2001 to 2007 and offers pure luxury. You will travel in the company of a maximum of 408 guests. Simply because we do not want to have the greatest number of guests, but the most satisfied.
Romance, style, exquisite comfort, and also the gentle farewell to those remaining behind – today, only travelling by ship matches the promises that were once associated with the word “travel”. The ship’s atmosphere, the unique and clear view of the open sea, as well as the variety of destinations turn cruises into a passion.
