The HX Expeditions Difference
World-Class Expedition Team
Encountering wildlife is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and a highlight of any HX cruise. Excursions are led safely and responsibly, in small groups, by experts in their field. Wildlife will always be viewed from a safe distance, both out of respect for their welfare and your experience – witnessing their behaviour in their natural habitat is a moment to be cherished.
Impactful Sustainability Efforts
HX Expeditions was the first expedition company to ban non-essential, single-use plastic. While on board, you won't see plastic cups, plastic straws and plastic cutlery. Plastic bottles have also been replaced with complimentary high-quality reusable bottles for use at water refill stations you'll see around the ship.
Mindful Dining
HX Expeditions' onboard restaurants offer an array of fresh, in-season menus, including plant-based dishes, complimentary still or sparkling water, and soft drinks. Draught beers and house wines are included with all meals. As this is an HX cruise, there are also food management waste programmes on all ships; in 2023, there was a 22% decrease in food waste per guest.
Luxury Accommodation
A HX cabin is your home away from home but elevated: comfortable, unpretentious, and everything you need at your fingertips. Your inner adventure-seeker will love winding down on the private balcony after a busy day on an expedition. Some suites also feature outdoor hot tubs for a night gazing up at the stars. With a daily turn-down service, laundry, and champagne on ice as you set sail, you won’t want your HX cruise to end.
