Launched in 1982, Clipper Cruises started cruising with Clipper Adventurer , which has a unique ice-strengthened hull that makes it capable of cruising in Artic and Antarctic waters. One of the focuses of Clipper Cruises, apart from adventure, is education. Thus the tour of historical and ecological sites is followed by lectures by experts.
Almost all the four ships on Clipper Cruises lines are equipped with a fleet of Zodiac landing crafts that allow the passengers to gain access to the remoter areas with a closer view. Designed by the famous yacht designer, Studio Acht , Clipper Odyssey is capable of cruising the Pacific region all the year round. Clipper Odyssey's sovereignty extends from New Zealand and Barrier Reef in Australia in the South to Japan in the North.
Clipper Adventurer's unique build is put to test as it covers parts of Europe, the Canadian Artic, the U.S, South America and Antarctica.
