MS Nordlys
Overview

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.
