Marco Polo II

Previously The Alexandr Pushkin

Built: 1965, V.E.B. Mathias-Thesen Werft, Germany
Rebuilt: 1991-1993, under the supervision of Knud Hansen, naval architects, and A&M Katzourakis, ship designer.

Like the famous explorer for which she is named, the Marco Polo is a world traveler. She was built with a strong ice-strengthened hull that makes her perfect for Antarctic expeditions. Her broad teak decks are a splendid vantage point for admiring fjords in Scandinavia or South America. And her mid-size allows her to enter intimate ports around the world where the giant ships can not go.

On board are all the facilities you would expect on a 22,000 ton luxury liner dedicated to the finest traditions of cruising. Savor delicious cuisine in two restaurants. Enjoy a nightclub, a disco, a Health Club and Beauty Center with aerobics studio & saunas, a swimming pool, Jacuzzis, a library, a casino, a card room and an array of lounges, including a piano bar and tea room. There are gracious public rooms for fun and activity, as well as cozy nooks for quiet moments of relaxation. It is the perfect mix.

Traveling with around 700 passengers, you will never feel as if you are just part of the crowd. The atmosphere aboard is warm and friendly, with gentleman hosts to assure that unescorted ladies enjoy ship activities, also a guest lecturer series. Renowned for her skilled Scandinavian officers and the warm smiles of her Filipino service staff, the Marco Polo the perfect ship for exploring the worlds most fascinating ports.
