Hapag-Lloyd Cruises, the leading luxury and expedition cruise line in the German-speaking region, with a fleet of five exceptional ships. The ships have prominently received the prestigious five-star rating from Insight Guides, cementing their position as the ”best fleet globally”. EUROPA and EUROPA 2, the premier luxury cruise ships, make up the renowned EUROPA class and offer unparalleled travel adventures with first-class service, unforgettable culinary experiences and extraordinary itineraries around the world.
The expedition segment includes three modern ships: HANSEATIC nature, HANSEATIC inspiration (commissioned in 2019) and HANSEATIC spirit (added in 2021). These ships are equipped with advanced environmental technology such as SCR catalytic converters, cruise in polar regions such as the Arctic and Antarctica, as well as warm destinations such as the Amazon. Since 2020, Hapag-Lloyd Cruises has been actively using low-emission marine gas oil (0.1 percent) throughout the fleet. The new expedition class and EUROPA 2 are equipped for shore power use.
For international guests, trips on board the EUROPA 2, recognized as one of the world's best ships, are recommended, and HANSEATIC inspiration is available in both German and English. "Every trip on board MS EUROPA 2 and HANSEATIC inspiration is enhanced by the dedicated presence of our international Guest Relations Managers, who act as an additional point of contact on the voyage. Our entire onboard offering is available in English. We have had a high level of customer satisfaction from our Scandinavian guests on our ships historically and are delighted to welcome even more guests from Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland in the future. We look forward to working with Aviareps in the Nordics. A warm welcome aboard," says Julian Pfitzner, CEO of Hapag-Lloyd Cruises.
