Discover unforgettable moments on the new expedition cruises!

The shipping company Swan Hellenic offers tailor-made events on its expedition cruise ships “SH Vega” and “SH Diana” under the motto “Special Cruise”. This form of travel is not only a way to discover the world, but also an ideal setting to celebrate special life events. Be it big birthdays, reunions with friends, company celebrations, honeymoons or golden weddings - all of this can be celebrated in extraordinary places in the middle of nature.

The shipping company's ships are designed to the highest standards. “SH Vega” offers space for 152 guests, while “SH Diana” is designed for 192 guests. Both ships are characterized by 5-star guest service and modern interiors. This not only means attractive design, but also the highest level of comfort and the best service. In addition, the cruises take place in various locations ranging from Antarctica to Africa to European coasts and also the Arctic.

Exclusive travel offers

An example of such a special cruise is the trip with the “SH Vega”. This departs from Ushuaia and sails through the Weddell Sea for 11 nights, from January 26th to February 6th, 2026, at a price of 14,880 euros per person in an outside cabin. This price already includes meals and 24-hour room service.

Swan Hellenic has planned a trip for the “SH Diana” from Victoria/Mahé Island/Seychelles to Mombasa/Kenya, which will take place from October 19th to 29th, 2025. The duration here is 10 nights and the price is 7,500 euros per person in an outside cabin, also including meals and room service.

Sustainability and safety

As part of its future plans, Swan Hellenic plans to build three new expedition cruise ships, which will be equipped with diesel-electric hybrid propulsion and an SCR catalytic converter. This shows the shipping company's commitment to sustainability and minimal ecological footprint during their trips.

The existing ships “SH Minerva” and “SH Vega” as well as the “SH Diana” have high ice class certifications – PC 5 and PC 6 respectively – and comply with the SOLAS “Safe Return to Port” regulations. These safety standards ensure that guests and crew can return safely, even in difficult situations.

Patrizia Iantorno, Chief Commercial Officer of Swan Hellenic, highlights the unique opportunity to celebrate important life events in such extraordinary locations and emphasizes that the cruises offer not only unique journeys but also unforgettable experiences.
