Arctic : Akademik Ioffe

Once part of the Russian scientific fleet this ship was built in Finland with an ice-strengthened hull and designed to be exceptionally stable, manoeuvrable and quiet. There is ample deck space and public areas, including lounge, bar, library, gym and sauna. The window-lined dining room is catered by international chefs offering a varied menu. There is also a full complement of Zodiac crafts aboard and a medical room.

Our View
