Staying aboard the worlds only boat locked in the ice provides modern people with a unique experience, and the opportunity to view the spectacular arctic nature up close. Here you can experience a silence and an light you will not find any other places, and perhaps you are lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the up to 700 kilo bear that sometimes wanders by the boat. The boat lays in beautiful Tempelfjord with a view towards the Von Post glacier

The M/S Origo was built in 1955 at Finnboda shipyard in Stockholm for the Swedish National Maritime Administration. In 1991 she started her career as passenger ship and has been cruising in the Arctic waters of Svalbard every summer since.

The Origo carries a maximum of 24 passengers in outside twin and superior cabins. All cabins except for the superior cabin have upper and lower berths.

The superior cabin and two cabins on the main/lower deck have private bath, all other cabins on lower deck have shared facilities. A charming ship with a lot of atmosphere.
