The former service ship of the Finnish government was completely renovated in the years 2019-2020. The now spacious, elegant but small expedition ship has room for 12 passengers. The ship's electric diesel propulsion is low in vibration and ideal for film and photo shoots.
The cooks on board will spoil you with culinary delights. You can watch the chef preparing the meals and baking in the open galley.
The included meals are taken together in the beautiful, mahogany dining room. A coffee and tea station is at your disposal around the clock. At the bar or at the old card table you can end the evening and review your experiences. There is also an on-board library for relaxation and further education. The Balto is a truly extraordinary jewel. On deck you can enjoy the view of the polar landscape or take a break in the sauna for up to 6 people. Everything is possible. You can also visit the bridge and ask the officers questions and explore the animal and ice worlds up close. There are two Zodiacs on board for landings and crusing and if the weather changes during a shore excursion, there is a separate "mudroom" where everything can be dried again.
You will never forget a trip on this unique ship with its incomparably intimate group size and lovely atmosphere.
