Overview

Kapitan Khlebnikov

A polar-class icebreaker that has a fantastic combination of power, technology, and comfort. Kapitan Khlebnikov was originally designed to take on the rigors of northern Siberia, with a 24,000 horsepower engine and advanced ice-breaking technology that takes guests where no other ship can. As a result, Kapitan Khlebnikov is an industry leader in Northwest Passage exploration. It's well equipped to smoothly navigate adverse conditions while taking passengers on bucket-list Arctic journeys.

Northwest Passage

No passenger ship has transited the Northwest Passage more times than Kapitan Khlebnikov. The powerful diesel-electric engine is crafted to handle atmospheres other crafts cannot. Established in 1992, the ship underwent sweeping refurbishments in 2015 to give guests a more comfortable onboard experience. Traveling through this renowned Arctic waterway will make for a truly unforgettable voyage.

Dining Options

Guests are ensured savory cuisine from Quark Expeditions' top-notch international chefs on Kapitan Khlebnikov. All meals are served inside the exquisite open-seating Dining Room. There's plenty of variety with a menu, including vegetarian options, that changes every day.

Activities Onboard Kapitan Khlebnikov

While the destinations are a major draw to sailing on Kapitan Khlebnikov, guests will also find an enjoyable experience on the boat. When not witnessing the Arctic, travelers can unwind with some of the following activities:

  • Heated pool and sauna
  • Gym
  • Movies and presentations from resident experts
  • Library open 24 hours with books in multiple languages

Guests can also mingle at the on-board bars and watch the Captain and crew navigate the ship from the Bridge.
