M/S Quest
Relaxed and informal atmosphere with a focus on the destination
Formerly known as M/S Sea Endurance, the expedition ship M/S Quest was built in Denmark in 1992 to serve as a ferry on Greenland`s west coast. In 2004/2005, she was completely refurbished and now has a career as a small and comfortable expedition ship sailing around the Arctic, helping intrepid explorers discover the world's most northerly wonders.
The M/S Quest is reasonably small; at just 49 meters it holds 53 passengers, making for an intimate expedition experience. The modern hull design has been ice-strengthened and the crew is very highly experienced. If you're looking for a great ship to take you to the best-kept Arctic secrets, the M/S Endurance might be the perfect ship for you! Keep a close eye on our special Arctic cruise deals and please get in touch if you have any questions about the M/S Quest or its various Arctic expedition cruises.
Quest takes 53 passengers in 26 cabins, all with sea-view and private facilities. Travelling on this small expedition ship offers a more relaxed and informal atmosphere and a much greater focus on the destination that is the case with larger vessels. Quest cruises to Spitsbergen and Svalbard and occasionally to Greenland. See the departures tab for more information.
