World Explorer by Quark Expeditions

Polar Views from Your Private Balcony

Distinct and comfortable, refined and roomy - these attributes and more describe World Explorer from Quark Expeditions. Not only is it among Quark's fastest ships, but it is also one of the finest, with six tiers of deluxe accommodation.

World Explorer features two state-of-the-art Rolls Royce hybrid-electric engines, significantly reducing its environmental impact on the Polar Regions.

Each suite on the 172-guest expedition ship has either a private walk-out or French balcony for direct ocean views. World Explorer also delivers plenty of public areas to unwind in after a day outdoors, including the glass-domed Observation Lounge for quiet contemplation and full skyline views, the Explorer Lounge for a drink and a chat, and the library for more intimate relaxing and reading. Presentations and discussions are facilitated in a dedicated lecture theatre.

The health and wellness facilities onboard World Explorer include an outdoor track, a small gym, sauna, spa with changing rooms, showers and lockers. For more active adventures, guests can kayak, paddle board and even go camping.
