We believe that as an explorer, you need an ‘expedition base camp’ that is comfortable. It should combine ‘all oceans capabilities’ with safety, flexibility, and environmental friendliness. That’s MS Fram. She’s simply the best expedition ship imaginable. This ship has passed stringent tests and is accredited by Bureau Veritas (BV), the leading independent certification body. BV’s strict and thorough safety audit ensures that every ship complies with industry and international best practices in health, safety and hygiene. Feel confident when you see the SafeGuard label, as this means your vessel met the highest standards to achieve certification. SafeGuard also entails following best practice guidelines with regard to hygiene, sanitation and limiting the spread of infectious diseases on board. Fram means ‘forward’ — lifting our expectations of the cruise ahead. MS Fram was built in 2007 with one mission in mind: to bring her guests closer to nature, wildlife, and unforgettable experiences. The spacious outside decks include access to the very front of the ship, which is perfect for observing marine wildlife. #### Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Passenger Capacity | 318 | | Crew | 75 | | Gross Tonnage | 11,647.0 | | Length | 374.0 ft | | Total Cabins | 127 | ## Ports of Call ### Longyearbyen *Coordinates: 78.22, 15.65* Longyearbyen is a small coal-mining town on Spitsbergen Island, in Norway's Svalbard archipelago.
