Heritage Discoverer
EXPEDITION-LUXURY (130 GUESTS)
The Heritage Discoverer, formerly the Silver Explorer, combines true expedition capability with a more refined onboard experience. An ice-strengthened hull, a fleet of Zodiacs and expansive outer make the ship perfectly suited for exploring remote polar environments. Carrying only 130 guests, she offers a small-ship atmosphere that allows for flexible landings and meaningful wildlife encounters.
The Heritage Discoverer has undergone significant refurbishment in recent years, bringing a fresh and contemporary feel throughout the ship. Upgraded public spaces, elegant lounges, and thoughtful design create a welcoming atmosphere that remains expedition-first, simply with a little more polish.
