HANSEATIC Έμπνευση

Το γυάλινο μπαλκόνι κάτω από τα πόδια σας σας επιτρέπει να αιωρείστε πάνω από το νερό και αποκαλύπτει την ατέλειωτη έκταση και την ομορφιά του ωκεανού. Παρακολουθήστε φάλαινες και μεγάλους δελφίνους να ακολουθούν το πλοίο, συναρπάζοντάς σας καθώς πηδούν και κολυμπούν. Το να βρίσκεστε τόσο κοντά στη δημιουργία είναι ένα αξεπέραστο συναίσθημα.

The deck tour at the bow offers extraordinarily intensive experiences: when whales jump for joy and polar bears take an icy bath, you will be the first to see these fascinating natural spectacles.

Stroll the spacious decks and feel the stars almost within reach – the terraced Observation Deck with a panoramic view is but one place to fulfil your dream. You can also quench your thirst for adventure in the comfortable surroundings of the Observation Lounge. The large full-glass windows provide a 180-degree view of the moon and sea while you reflect on your unforgettable travel days over a glass of wine.

Library

You are welcome to borrow a book on board at any time. Our library is located in the Observation Lounge (Deck 8) and is stocked with a selection of the latest fiction books, travel literature and information about the cruising area.

Located on Deck 4.

Post

The Reception staff will post your postcards and letters from all ports where this facility is available. Your onboard account will be debited with the appropriate charges.

Announcements

To create the full expedition experience, commentaries are provided for interesting passages during the cruise and special animal sightings are reported. The ship’s position is reported in the morning on days at sea. We will also announce via the loudspeakers when the local authorities have cleared the ship and we can go ashore. The volume can be controlled individually in each cabin/suite.

Means of payment

The on-board currency is the euro. An account will be set up for you so that you can make cashless payments during the cruise. You can find out your current account balance at any time using the infotainment system in your cabin/suite. You can then settle the entire account at Reception at the end of your cruise. We accept German EC/Maestro cards and the following credit cards: Mastercard, American Express and Visa. You can also pay in cash.

Υπάρχει γιατρός επί του πλοίου;

Σε περίπτωση οποιουδήποτε προβλήματος υγείας, τα πλοία μας διαθέτουν νοσοκομείο εξοπλισμένο με σύγχρονες ιατρικές εγκαταστάσεις, υπό την επίβλεψη έμπειρου πλοιάρχου γιατρού. Παρακαλούμε ανατρέξτε στα ωράρια των ιατρικών συμβουλών που αναρτώνται επί του πλοίου.

Μπορώ να προμηθευτώ φάρμακα από το νοσοκομείο του πλοίου;

Υπάρχει βασικό απόθεμα φαρμάκων επί του πλοίου. Παρακαλούμε τους επισκέπτες μας να φέρουν μαζί τους επαρκείς ποσότητες των φαρμάκων που χρειάζονται.

Πώς διευθετώ τον λογαριασμό για το νοσοκομείο επί του πλοίου;

Η θεραπεία επί του πλοίου ισοδυναμεί με επίσκεψη σε γιατρό στο εξωτερικό (σημαία Μάλτα). Συνεπώς, συνιστούμε να αποκτήσετε ιδιωτική διεθνή ασφάλιση υγείας. Η πληρωμή θα πραγματοποιηθεί μέσω του λογαριασμού σας επί του πλοίου. Η Hapag-Lloyd Cruises δεν φέρει ευθύνη για την αποζημίωση του πλήρους κόστους των θεραπειών από την προσωπική σας ασφάλιση υγείας.

On board

On an expedition cruise, everything revolves around experiencing the natural and there is a sporty and elegant atmosphere of exploration. This is the motto in all our restaurants for evening dining. On special occasions (such as Christmas) and for welcome and farewell evenings, we recommend wearing a jacket. Please consider the following in our restaurants, bars and lounges:

• Swim wear and bathrobes (including bathing shoes) are not allowed in the restaurants, bars and lounges
• Sportswear and outdooe clothes are not allowed during dinner time
• Shorts and open shoes (for men) are not allowed during dinner time on deck 4

Ashore

When you go ashore, you should wear comfortable and practical clothes to suit the particular cruising area. Sturdy, flat shoes are essential – both for on board the ship and when you are ashore. In order to protect yourself from spray when on board the Zodiac, please take waterproof trousers or overtrousers without Velcro if possible with you (especially for expeditions in the polar regions, we recommend avoiding clothing with Velcro as to ensure that flora and fauna are not carried into regions where they are not indigenous). A protective waterproof bag is useful for your smartphone/camera equipment. For routes in warm waters, please remember to bring enclosed, sturdy beach shoes or waterproof trekking sandals that allow you to walk well and safely. These are also essential for the Zodiacs.

Do you provide rubber boots?

On our expedition ships, rubber boots in sizes 33 to 52 are provided on a loan basis for wet landings in the Antarctic and Arctic. When cruising in the Arctic and Antarctic, please note that rubber boots must be washed in a rubber boots washer when leaving or boarding the ships. 

Are parkas provided?

Depending on the cruising area, parkas are also provided on board the expedition ships for loan throughout the entire cruise. The parkas are available in American sizes S–XXXL and are not available for purchase.
