Hanseatic Inspiration Itineraries

Hanseatic inspiration review, review of hanseatic inspiration.

The 2019-built Hanseatic Inspiration cruise ship is the first of the three Hapag-Lloyd boats with which the company entered the ultra-luxury expedition travel market - together with the sisterships Hanseatic Nature (2019 April) and Hanseatic Spirit (2021 June). All these boats are of the same design.

The vessel (IMO number 9183855) is currently Malta- flagged (MMSI 215766000) and registered in Valletta .

History - construction and ownership

Hapag-Lloyd Cruises (Kreuzfahrten) is a Hamburg -based passenger shipping company and premium travel brand owned by TUI AG (shipowner) and managed by its subsidiary TUI Cruises . Between 2017-2020, Hapag-Lloyd Cruises was fully owned by Hapag-Lloyd AG (German-Chilean shipping company, one of the world's oldest), currently ranked the world's 5th largest container shipping line in terms of fleet capacity.

The shipowner TUI AG (Hanover Germany-based) is a British-German multinational currently ranked the world's largest leisure and travel company. It was founded in 1923 and until 2002 was named "Preussag AG". TUI Group's companies specialize in hospitality and tourism services worldwide, with a portfolio including passenger airlines, cruise shipping, package vacations, hotels and resorts, travel agencies, retail shops.

The 230-passenger ship Hanseatic Inspiration was built by Norwegian company VARD Holdings Ltd (a subsidiary of Fincantieri) at Tulcea shipyard (Romania). The vessel has ice-class PC6 (highest for passenger ships) and offers 5-star premium hotel service and amenities, gourmet cuisine, large staterooms, and public spaces.

Hapag-Lloyd's new cruise ship design is based on an ice-strengthened hull and implemented top-notch marine technologies developed specifically for a polar vessel. Among those is the long-range 3D sonar "FarSounder 1000". The device is forward-looking (installed in the ship's bow) and integrated into the vessel's bridge navigation system. The sonar allows it to maneuver through icy waters, showing and mapping approaching hazards, such as icebergs or shallow coral reefs.

The ship design features 2 extendible glass balconies (glass-bottomed and glass-walled) providing passengers with the unique feeling of floating over the water. The vessel has a retractable Navigation Bridge wing allowing it to pass through the narrow river and canal locks.

Hanseatic Inspiration is fitted with modern environmental-friendly technologies and equipment. Vessel's hull shape is optimized to reduce fuel consumption and the overall bunker consumption. The ship has an SCR catalytic converter, reducing NOx emissions by nearly 95%. The ship's propulsion features a PROMAS rudder with a specially-designed propeller that helps reducing fuel consumption and lowers emissions. Special polar equipment is the ice detectors - thermal imaging technology with infrared cameras. Cold ironing (shore-to-ship power capabilities) are also available.

In late-February 2019, Hapag-Lloyd announced a user-friendly digital concept for onboard learning never seen before on expedition vessels. The new "study wall" is available on the fleet's three new Hanseatic ships (Inspiration, Nature, Spirit).

The innovative touchscreen technology (screen size 6x1,8 m / 20x6 ft) allows passengers to research information and various topics related to the ship's current cruise itinerary destinations. The digital Study Wall was developed over a 2,5-year period via a partnership with two German ( Hamburg -based) companies - Intermediate Engineering GmbH, and mpg ErlebnisRaumDesign GmbH.

Digital content (articles, biographies, photos, videos) is divided into 5 categories. Most of the information is provided by GEOMAR ( Kiel Germany ), also by journalists, scientists, and experts. The Study Wall is located in Knowledge Studio (Wissens Atelier / Deck 8). The research facility also has four Study Seats (with touchscreens to explore the content), Study Poster (visual scientific explanations), a dedicated area for microscope research.

Itineraries

MS Hanseatic Inspiration itinerary program is based on Polar cruise expeditions (Arctic and Antarctic destinations), as well as seasonal tropical destinations - like the South Seas and Amazon.

In addition to polar itineraries, the ship also operates on voyages visiting Amazon River, Chilean Fjords, Azores Islands, Cape Verde Islands. Itinerary durations range between 4-day Frisian Islands (aka the Wadden Islands, in North Sea, Europe) to 20-day Antarctica.

During the inaugural season, the ship will also visited the USA's Great Lakes.

Hanseatic Inspiration Wiki

Cruise ship cabins were prefabricated by the shipbuilder's sister company VARD Accommodation. Staterooms were designed by the Finnish company NIT Design, which also supplied all the materials. Besides the ship's cabins and their balconies, NIT Design also made the Spa, the a la carte restaurant, all staircases and outdoor deck areas.

On October 9, 2017, was the vessel's steel-cutting ceremony held at the VARD shipyard in Tulcea Romania . The keel-laying ceremony was on October 18, during which a special coin was traditionally placed under the first steel block (part of the hull) for good luck. In Romania was constructed only the hull (weight 6500 tons), while the rest of the ship was assembled at the VARD shipyard in Langsten Norway (near Alesund ). The 4000 ml (6450 km) long towing of the hull from Romania to Norway takes around 5 weeks. The voyage (through Istanbul Turkey and Gibraltar ) of the 6500-ton hull started on February 16, 2019. The ship's delivery was on October 2, 2019. It was launched with Hapag-Lloyd's new livery (on the blue hull).

In November 2017, Hapag-Lloyd Cruises announced that hull design changes resulted in projected over 10% annual fuel savings for the new expedition vessels. After an initial assessment, the hull's efficiency was optimized using DNV GL developed form optimization process that included 10,000 hull design analyses to confirm the hull model optimization results. The main changes were done to the hull's stern - optimized for passenger comfort by minimizing the impact of slamming.

Hapag-Lloyd opened bookings for both new Hanseatic ships (Inspiration and Nature ) on January 23, 2018.

Initially, the cruise ship's christening ceremony was scheduled for October 13, 2019 (in Antwerp Belgium ). However, the vessel's naming was later rescheduled for October 11, and held in Port Hamburg (at Uberseebrucke Terminal) . Ship's godmother is Laura Dekker - 1995-born Dutch sailor. In 2010-2012, she successfully completed a full world circumnavigation (518-day voyage) on a 40-foot ketch (2-masted sailboat). The onboard christening ceremony will be hosted by Ranga Yogeshwar - 1959-born (in Luxembourg City ) physicist and natural science journalist.

The shipbuilder was Vard Holdings Ltd (VARD) - subsidiary of Fincantieri (Italy). The ship's Captain (Master) is Ulf Wolter.

Ship review: Hanseatic Inspiration, Hapag-Lloyd Cruises

Posted by Jane Archer on 7 April 2021

Hapag-Lloyd Cruises’ new ship  Hanseatic Inspiration  will come as a surprise to customers thinking expedition cruising means roughing it

From the quality of the finish to the spectacular science centre and LED screen depicting whales swimming across the top of the HanseAtrium lounge, this ship oozes luxury. The vessel, christened in Hamburg in October by round-the-world sailor Laura Dekker, holds 230 passengers (limited to 199 in Antarctica and Spitsbergen) and is targeted at German and English speakers. Prices include all meals, drinks from the minibar, tips and an hour a day of Wi-Fi.

The Cabins These are spacious, beautifully designed and well-appointed, with expedition must-haves such as Nordic walking poles and Swarovski Optik binoculars, as well as coffee machines. Bathrooms have a heated wall where passengers can dry wet clothes. Most cabins have a balcony; suites and junior suites have butler service.

The Food and Drink Passengers can eat when they wish and sit with their partner (there are lots of tables for two) or share with others in the Hanseatic Restaurant. Nikkei is a more intimate eatery serving a menu inspired by Japanese and South American cuisine – think miso cod and duck with cabbage, corn and chilli. A self-service offers a casual alternative. All restaurants are free, but drinks other than in the cabin minibars (soft drinks and beer in cabins, plus spirits in suites and junior suites) cost extra. Choose the Observation Lounge for great views.

Nikkei is a more intimate eatery serving a menu inspired by Japanese and South American cuisine 

The Facilities The HanseAtrium is the hub of the ship, used for socialising and lectures, while the Ocean Academy, open 24 hours a day, is the ‘brain’ – the place to chat to the expedition team and read up on everything from famous explorers to geology and the climate on a touch-screen LED wall. The spa pays homage to the environment, with walls made from pressed hay and stone, and glass pots with wooden lids and linen labels. The steam room and sauna are mixed and clothes are not allowed, in keeping with the true German way (wrapping in a towel is acceptable). The pool area is open to the elements so it’s pretty chilly, especially in the polar regions (outdoor heaters are available). The ship carries 17 Zodiacs for shore landings, as well as kayaks and stand-up paddleboards.

There are retractable glass balconies on each side of the hull that give the feeling you’re floating on the water

USP:  It has to be all the outdoor space, which allows passengers close-up views of the scenery and wildlife. There’s access to the ship’s bow – called the Inspiration Walk – and retractable glass balconies on each side of the hull that give the feeling you’re floating on the water.

About Hapag-Lloyd Cruises

Hapag-Lloyd Cruises represents luxury on small ships. On board all ships you can expect individual experiences, first-class service and sophisticated programs on board and ashore. The cruise line offers many special features, especially the expedition cruises which you should book early, but also theme cruises such as golf trips or musical events. The ships Bremen and Hanseatic with less than 200 passengers offer an particularly personal atmosphere. In contrast the ships Europa and Europa 2 offer more luxurious areas for a maximum of 400 respectively 516 passengers. With the new expedition class, the two ships Hanseatic nature and Hanseatic inspiration joined the fleet in 2019.

Since July 2020 all ships of the fleet have been only fueled by the low-sulfured marine gas oil (MGO) instead of heavy oil. This causes 80 % less emissions and 30 % less fine dust and particualte emissions.

The ship Hanseatic inspiration

Both new expedition vessels have the ice class PC6, the highest ice class for passenger ships. Glass balconies on almost all cabins will literally float you over the ocean and as well as the generous open deck areas and the gallery at the bow, allow first-line nature observation. On the small, exclusive ships with a maximum of 230 guests (for arctic expeditions up to 199 guests) a very personal and excellent service awaits you. From the marina, you can set out on a total of 17 Zodiacs for thrilling discoveries or water sports in warmer regions. For both ships the cruise line put a lot of emphasis on environmental friendliness. With new technologies consumption and emissions will be reduced. Modern E-Zodiacs will bring the guests almost noiseless into untouched nature. Please note that the ship will soon be a non-smoker ship. This then applies to all public areas, for the inside areas as well as outside areas on deck (including private balconies and verandas). At the moment (date 11.11.2020) the following rules apply onboard: Smoking is only allowing in the Invisible Lounge inside the ship. Outside there is a designated smoking area portside near the pool. It is also allowed to smoke on the private balconies/verandas of the suites. Pipes, cigarillo and cigars are exclusively allowed in the Invisible Lounge.

Hanseatic inspiration Atmosphere on Board

The new Hanseatic inspiration offers excellent expedition feeling with 5-star comfort. The atmosphere on board is nevertheless relaxed and due to the small number of guests very private. All guests can enjoy a maximum of personal freedom on board which means free choice between the restaurants and the seats. The clothing during the day is sporty-elegant and adapted to the weather. Two extendable glass balconies on the sundeck provide the incomparable feeling of floating above the ocean. The age of the guests is mixed, but mostly middle and upper age. Board languages on the Hanseatic inspiration are German and English, so that also international guests can easily follow the explanations given by the experts on board.

The bistro restaurant offers approx. 84 seats inside the ship as well as around 100 seats on the outside. Two bars complete the culinary offer and invite to one or other drinks and stimulating conversations with fellow travelers.

Hanseatic inspiration Entertainment, Sports and Relaxation

The focus of an expedition cruise is on the discovery of the world and the intense experience of nature. Therefore, the focus of the entertainment on the Hanseatic inspiration is on the imparting of knowledge which is deepened by expert lectures in the HanseAtrium and can once again be extended by self-study in the OceanAcademy. The deck circulation on the bow allows nature observations from close proximity. The HanseAtrium, a divisible multifunctional lounge, transforms into one of the two bars in the evening. In the 235 square meter spa area, guests can spoil themselves after exciting excursions. A Finnish sauna, a steam sauna, a relaxation area, a hairdresser, beauty treatments and massages will be offered in the spa ares. For sports enthusiasts, there is an approx. 100 square meter training area with a view of the impressive natural panorama of the respective destination and a pool area with countercurrent system which is weather independent thanks to a flexible tent roof.

Hapag-Lloyd’s Hanseatic Inspiration Enters Drydock in Germany

• May 17, 2024

Hapag-Lloyd Cruises’ Hanseatic Inspiration is currently undergoing a drydock at the Lloyd Werft shipyard in Bremerhaven, Germany.

After completing a repositioning cruise to Northern Europe, the expedition ship arrived at the facility on May 13, 2024.

The Hanseatic Inspiration is now set to undergo routine maintenance, in addition to class work and technical overhauls.

The 230-guest vessel is also expected to receive upkeep of its hotel areas, including replacement of carpets, upholstery and more.

Following the work, the Hanseatic Inspiration is set to resume service on May 23, 2024. On that day, the ship will set sail from Bremerhaven for an eight-night cruise to several destinations in Germany.

Sailing to Hamburg, the one-way voyage features visits to Binz, Poel Island, Wismar, Heligoland and Silt, in addition to an overnight call in Cuxhaven.

The Hanseatic Inspiration is also scheduled to transit the Kiel Canal before arriving at its final destination on May 31, 2024.

The ship is set to offer a series of expedition cruises to the Arctic and Northern Europe during the 2024 summer season. The program features itineraries to Svalbard, Greenland, Iceland and more.

In September, the Hanseatic Inspiration is also scheduled to offer cruises to the Great Lakes. Sailing from Toronto and Milwaukee, the 13- to 16-night itineraries feature visits to several destinations in Canada and the United States.

The vessel will then reposition to South America to kick off a winter season that includes expeditions to Antarctica, the Falkland Islands and South Georgia.

Purpose-designed to offer expedition cruises in remote areas and polar regions, the Hanseatic Inspiration originally entered service in October 2019 .

A sister ship to the Hanseatic Nature, the 16,100-ton vessel was built by the VARD Langsten shipyard in Norway.

QE2 Cruise Packages

Combine at the world’s most iconic floating hotel with a luxury cruise aboard the regal Queen Mary 2 with our exclusive QE2 cruise packages…

Built in 1967 and originally known as Hull 736, Queen Elizabeth 2 was synonymous with luxury cruising. The ship’s colourful history, which saw her cover 5.6 million miles and complete 806 transatlantic crossings for Cunard – as well as a stint carrying troops in the Falklands War – means the QE2 is rightfully remembered as the world’s most famous ocean liner.

Now based in Dubai, Queen Elizabeth 2 has been reborn as an elegant hotel. The period furniture and original portholes have been maintained, while modifications to the ship’s suites and restaurants mean that she sits effortlessly among the world’s most desirable hotels.

The collection of packages below give you the opportunity to enjoy a stay on Queen Elizabeth 2 either before, or after, a voyage aboard another famous Queen, the QM2 . We’ve included a variety of Cunard sailings to suit all preferences and are delighted to feature itineraries in the Mediterranean, Asia and Australia.

For further information, please call our Voyage Consultants on 0800 008 6677 . Alternatively, simply choose your preferred enquiry from the collection below and make an online enquiry.
