About the M/S Quest

Adrian Nordenborg

MS Quest passengers boarding a Zodiac near snowy polar mountains, ready for an Arctic adventure.

The ship was built in Denmark in 1992 to serve as a ferry along the west coast of Greenland. In 2004-2005, it was completely refurbished into a comfortable expedition ship, and in 2018, the passenger areas underwent further renovation.
