Embark on a unique 2-hour Arctic adventure aboard the Polar Explorer Icebreaker, a powerful vessel designed to navigate the frozen waters of the Bothnian Sea. Feel the ship’s raw strength as it carves a path through thick sea ice, offering breathtaking views of Lapland’s winter wilderness. This once-in-a-lifetime experience is perfect for adventurers, nature lovers, and anyone seeking the magic of the Arctic.

Your journey begins at the Polar Explorer Icebreaker terminal in Axelsvik, Sweden. The cruise terminal is located 168 km from Rovaniemi (approx. 2 h 15 min drive), 73 km from Kemi (approx. 1 h drive), and 100 km from Luleå (approx. 1 h 15 min drive). The terminal is easily reached by car — a scenic drive through Lapland’s snowy landscapes.

Once onboard, explore the ship’s seven decks with an audio guide available in 15 languages. Discover the engine room, the Captain’s bridge, and learn about the fascinating technology behind icebreaking. Watch a short film in the onboard cinema to deepen your understanding of Arctic exploration.

During the cruise, step off the ship onto the thick, frozen sea ice. Take in the surreal silence and pristine beauty of the Arctic landscape. Commemorate your adventure with a Cruise certificate signed by the Captain.
