Celebrating 25 years of Expedition Cruising, luxury travel company Abercrombie & Kent has released its 2015 – 2016 brochure for polar expeditionary cruises.

Crew and staff are still hired for their unparalleled experience in both the North and South Poles with each expedition team member having more than 18 years' experience on average and A&K's immaculate safety record speaks for itself.
Created by on-the-ground experts, led by a remarkable expedition team of research scientists and naturalists and operated exclusively by A&K on board luxury cruiser MV 'Le Boreal' the voyages in this brochure reveal the polar reaches at their astonishing best.
