The Vessel Architecture
Spanning 210 metres in length and weighing 26,000 tons, this state-of-the-art new expedition ship features three high-tech carbon masts and solid sails designed to harness the wind.
It utilizes dual-fuel engines and an advanced electric-hybrid propulsion system powered by a nine-megawatt marine battery system, allowing for near-silent, zero-emission operation in fragile ecosystems. With a guest capacity of 400 and a dedicated crew of 275, the vessel delivers a remarkable staff-to-guest ratio that guarantees highly personalized service for a premier small ship cruise experience.
Exquisite Suite Collections
Every stateroom aboard this new expedition ship is a beautifully appointed suite divided into three distinct tiers.
The Reserve Collection represents the pinnacle of luxury, offering expansive spaces on decks six and seven alongside private butler service.
The Concierge Collection features suites with floor-to-ceiling windows, Juliet balconies, or full private verandas, plus exclusive perks like complimentary laundry service.
The Signature Collection provides a serene retreat with private balconies or panoramic windows, fully stocked complimentary minibars, and premium amenities to ensure total relaxation throughout your luxury expedition cruise.
Sophisticated Life on Board
Life aboard the Atlas Adventurer is designed to be relaxed and social. The culinary program sets a high benchmark for new ships, featuring seven distinct fine dining venues where world-class chefs create globally inspired menus that change daily.
Five open bars and lounges are spread across the yacht, offering 24-hour bar service and specialty appetizers completely included in your fare. Guests can mingle on the spacious open decks, relax by the large swimming pool, or utilize the specialized marina platform at the stern of the ship, which features an ocean pool and launching docks for Zodiacs and kayaks.
Charting New Tracks
The inaugural 2028 and 2029 season brings an exciting expansion for Atlas Ocean Voyages, introducing completely new itineraries across Asia and Africa. The deployment features 16 distinct voyages ranging from eight to 21 nights, taking full advantage of the yacht’s ability to visit small ports that large vessels cannot reach.
The season opens in November 2028 with cultural itineraries in Japan, before moving south through the tropical islands of Southeast Asia. In early 2029, the ship crosses the Indian Ocean to reveal the raw wilderness of Madagascar, the Swahili Coast, and Kenya.
