66 Degrees Expeditions is an international polar expedition cruise operator launched in late 2024, with commercial expedition operations beginning in 2025. Operating the ice-strengthened MS Seaventure, the company specializes in small-ship expedition cruising across the Arctic and Antarctic, with itineraries focused on remote destinations, wildlife, immersive landings, Zodiac cruising, and expert-led interpretation. While strongly engaged with the Chinese travel market, 66 Degrees Expeditions operates with a global outlook, welcoming both Chinese-speaking and international guests through bilingual and culturally inclusive onboard services. Its international Expedition Team brings together experienced polar guides, lecturers, naturalists, and multilingual professionals from around the world, with a strong emphasis on safety, environmental responsibility, and high expedition standards. The company’s name is inspired by the 66th parallel and the Arctic Circle, reflecting its focus on high-latitude exploration and its ambition to deliver authentic, inclusive, and internationally oriented polar expedition experiences.
