Featuring 53 cabins, the gracious and intimate National Geographic Orion takes travelers to little-known waters and isles in the Pacific Islands, Antarctica and the Mediterranean to experience each location’s natural and cultural wonders up close. With her high ice-class rating, National Geographic Orion is strong enough to explore the polar regions, yet her elevated maneuverability allows for navigation practically anywhere accessible by sea.
Public spaces include two dining areas; lounge with bar and state-of-the-art presentation facilities; OM System Photo Gear Locker; sundeck with a whirlpool hot tub that doubles as a plunge pool in warm climates; observation lounge and library; fitness center and spa; plus open access to the Bridge, the Captain, officers, and on-duty wildlife spotters. Meals are served in the dining room, or weather permitting, the outdoor café, at a single seating with unassigned tables for an informal atmosphere and easy mingling. Menus feature sustainable choices, local where possible.
