MOST LUXURIOUS SHIPS
Refined, spacious and powered by two state-of-the-art Rolls Royce engines, the World Explorer ranks amongst the fastest and most luxurious ships in Quark Expedition’s polar portfolio.
The World Explorer boasts six tiers of premier suite accommodation. Every suite has its own private walk-out or French balcony where you can look out over the ocean and extraordinary polar landscape. In addition, the vessel also has an array of elegant social spaces to relax and mingle with fellow shipmates
throughout the day. The glass-domed Observation Lounge, with its panoramic views, is a particular favourite, as is the ship’s wraparound deck where heated seats allow for optimal comfort whilst admiring passing icebergs.
Health and wellness enthusiasts won’t have to give up their routine whilst at sea, with facilities that include an outdoor track, a small gym, sauna and indulgent L’Occitane Spa where you can enjoy massages and facials. Not forgetting the large heated outdoor pool on Deck 7, framed by two hot tubs. Every day at sea is different but will likely include multiple shore landings, Zodiac cruises, workshops and presentations. The ship’s ‘Ready Room’ is conveniently located next to Zodiac embarkation points.

The destinations were fabulous, but what really stood out was the care and patience Tania showed as she guided me and my sister through every question and hesitation. Nothing felt rushed or too much trouble. The result? A truly wonderful holiday. Thank you.
