Luxury cruises and expeditions

Be inspired by our varied range of cruises. Enjoy a cruise that leaves no wish unfulfilled – on board our luxury ships EUROPA and EUROPA 2. Or experience an adventure like no other aboard one of our expedition ships – HANSEATIC nature, HANSEATIC inspiration or HANSEATIC spirit. No matter which ship or route you choose, wonders always await: the world ahead of us.

EUROPA 2 

THE ART OF DANCE 

In June 2024, the renowned Swedish choreographer Alexander Ekman celebrated his premiere on board the EUROPA 2. Never before has a contemporary dance piece been created and staged at this level and with this level of artistry on a ship on the high seas. In August 2025, you will have the opportunity to experience Ekman again on board the EUROPA 2.

International cruises

Our international voyages (English/German) on the EUROPA 2 and on the HANSEATIC inspiration ensure that English-speaking passengers feel comfortable from the moment they step on board. All of the documentation, e.g. confirmation, travel documents, handbooks, programmes of the day, menus, announcements and lectures as well as the safety drill and Zodiac instruction will be provided in English. We offer at least one shore excursion in English in each port of call. Approximately three months prior to the start of the cruise you will receive information about the shore excursions available in English.

More information about our international cruises on the EUROPA 2 and the HANSEATIC inspiration can be found in our English catalogues. All other catalogues are only available in German language.
