MS Nordlys
Both the name and the interior design of this modern expedition ship are inspired by the spectacular Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis).
The ship's art, decor and colours are all inspired by the Northern Lights. Working with her light and delicate interior, Norwegian artists have created a unique and distinct environment on board. Passengers are encouraged to relax in the ship's elegant maritime atmosphere in a choice of lounges and comfortable reclining chairs after a day of experiencing the various excursions and activities.
