The children will learn about other cultures, the importance of nature in our daily lives, and the impact humans have on our delicate and beautiful planet. The Young Explorers’ Programme makes it easier to meet other children on board, bond over common activities and form lasting friendships.

There will be daily on-board activities related to different Young Explorers’ topics. Through the Young Explorers’ Programme, children will get a deeper understanding of nature, climate and culture. Depending on seasons and destinations, they will also be introduced to topics like wildlife, local food, environmental protection and famous explorers. This will give the children a sense of what it is like to be a real explorer in beautiful, untouched surroundings.

How can my kids participate in Young Explorers' Programme?

• MS Fridtjof Nansen: The sister ship of MS Roald Amundsen with similar facilities and will primarily sail in Antarctica and Greenland. It will be the perfect vessel for children to explore and get to know the polar regions
