New Year maiden cruise of Swan Hellenic’s SH Minerva launches new era

On 30 December 2021 Swan Hellenic’s new ship, SH Minerva, left Ushuaia on her maiden cultural expedition cruise of the Antarctic, a nine-day New Year celebration of discovery.

Cruising in the hands of industry veterans Captain Tuomo Leskinen and Hotel Director Philipp Reutener, SH Minerva’s first guests look forward to celebrating the New Year deep in the splendours of Antarctica.

Here, they will explore the sights and wildlife of the Peninsula and milder Shetland Islands in the company of Expedition Leader Pablo Brandeman, polar expert Steve Blamires and renowned ornithologist Andy Bunten.

Swan Hellenic CEO Andrea Zito commented: “We are immensely proud to have welcomed our first guests aboard this wonderful new ship to live unique new experiences that advance the revered Swan Hellenic tradition, taking them to see what others don’t in exceptional comfort and style.”
