  Sweden: A Journey Through History and Culture

  Step into Sweden, where water, stone, and sky shape a landscape rich with history, tradition, and quiet beauty. In Stockholm, a city spread across islands, medieval streets wind through Gamla Stan while royal palaces, cathedral interiors, and waterfront views reflect centuries of cultural and political life. It’s a place where the past feels present—woven into daily routines, architecture, and the rhythms of the city itself.

  Beyond the capital, the story deepens. In Uppsala and the surrounding countryside, Sweden’s earliest roots come into view. Ancient burial mounds rise from the landscape at Gamla Uppsala, marking a place once central to pre-Christian belief and early kingship. Here, myth, archaeology, and history intersect in a setting that feels both grounded and timeless.

  Throughout the journey, Sweden reveals itself not through spectacle, but through atmosphere—quiet streets, open landscapes, and a culture shaped by resilience, tradition, and connection to place. From Viking-age origins to modern life, this is a destination that invites exploration at a thoughtful pace.

  Join us for an experience that blends historic cities, cultural landscapes, and the enduring character of Sweden into one memorable journey.

  
  

  

  

  
  

  Itinerary

  September 11 – Arrival  Arrive in Stockholm and meet for a guided walking tour introducing the area around our hotel and the city’s historic core. We’ll visit Stockholm Cathedral before continuing into Gamla Stan, the city’s Old Town, where narrow cobblestone streets, the Royal Palace, and the Nobel Prize Museum highlight centuries of Swedish history. Along the way, we’ll enjoy a tasting of traditional fried herring.

  September 12  – Maritime History & Swedish Traditions  Travel to Djurgården, Stockholm’s museum island, for a visit to the Vasa Museum, home to a remarkably preserved 17th-century warship built as a symbol of Sweden’s power. From there, enjoy a scenic walk along the waterfront before continuing to Skansen, the world’s oldest open-air museum. Here, historic buildings, farmsteads, and traditional crafts bring Sweden’s cultural history to life, including its connections to emigration and modern development. The afternoon allows time to explore further or return to the city at your own pace.

  September 13 - Vaxholm & the Archipelago  Travel by ferry through the Stockholm archipelago, passing islands and coastal landscapes on the way to Vaxholm, often called the “Capital of the Archipelago.” Explore this picturesque seaside town on a guided walking tour, with time to enjoy a traditional Swedish fika—coffee and cinnamon rolls—at a local café. After returning to Stockholm, discover the city’s subway system, known for its striking artwork, with visits to several of its most notable stations.

  September 14 – Uppsala & Sweden’s Early Foundations  Travel by private coach to Uppsala for a day exploring one of Sweden’s most historically significant regions. Begin at Gamla Uppsala, where ancient burial mounds and a historic church mark an important Viking-age ceremonial site. Continue into modern Uppsala to visit key landmarks including the Royal Castle, the university library, and Uppsala Cathedral, along with the gardens of Carl Linnaeus. After time for lunch on your own, the day concludes with a visit to Venngarn Castle for a gin tasting before returning to Stockholm.

  September 15 – Royal Stockholm & Drottningholm Palace  Begin the day with a guided visit to Stockholm City Hall, a landmark of Swedish architecture and the site of the Nobel Prize banquet. From there, travel by boat to Drottningholm Palace, the residence of the Swedish royal family and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Explore the palace, its gardens, and the Chinese Pavilion, with time for lunch before returning to Stockholm by boat.

  September 16 – Artipelag & Contemporary Expression  Travel into the Stockholm archipelago to visit Artipelag, where art and nature come together in a striking coastal setting. Enjoy a guided walk through the outdoor exhibition spaces before experiencing an immersive installation dedicated to Alphonse Mucha, blending visual art, sound, and atmosphere. Return to Stockholm in the afternoon.

  September 17 – Departure  Enjoy free time in Stockholm before making your departure.

  
  

  
  

  This tour includes a moderate amount of walking, typically averaging a few miles per day. Much of this takes place on city streets, including uneven surfaces such as cobblestones in historic areas like Gamla Stan. Participants should be comfortable walking for extended periods, standing during guided visits, and navigating stairs and varied terrain. The pace is manageable, with regular breaks, but a reasonable level of mobility is recommended to fully enjoy the experience.

  The Caribbean Without a Passport: Discover Puerto Rico

  Discover the vibrant spirit of Puerto Rico—an island where Spanish colonial history, African traditions, and Caribbean culture come together to create an experience unlike anywhere else in the United States. Best of all, U.S. citizens can enjoy this unforgettable journey without the need for a passport, making it one of the easiest ways to experience a rich and distinctive culture just a short flight from home.

  From the colorful streets and centuries-old fortifications of Old San Juan to the lively neighborhoods of Santurce and Loíza, every day offers opportunities to connect with Puerto Rico’s remarkable history and living traditions. Walk cobblestone streets shaped by more than 500 years of history, learn to prepare authentic Puerto Rican cuisine, explore one of the island’s premier art museums, and experience the music, dance, and craftsmanship that continue to define Afro-Puerto Rican culture today.

  Beyond its cultural treasures, Puerto Rico’s natural beauty is equally unforgettable. As night falls, paddle through the glowing waters of a world-famous bioluminescent bay, where millions of tiny organisms transform the lagoon into a shimmering display of blue light—one of nature’s most extraordinary spectacles.

  Designed with both discovery and relaxation in mind, this tour features a single hotel throughout your stay, allowing you to unpack once and settle in. The itinerary also includes ample free time to explore at your own pace—wander Old San Juan, discover a favorite café or shop, relax by the beach or hotel pool, or simply enjoy the island however you choose. While a variety of guided experiences are included, you’re always welcome to skip an activity and create your own adventure.

  This is more than a vacation. It is an immersive journey into the history, traditions, flavors, and communities that make Puerto Rico one of the Caribbean’s most fascinating destinations. Join us for an experience that blends cultural discovery, hands-on learning, personal exploration, and memorable adventures into one unforgettable island escape.

  Journey to Antarctica with Us

  Join the CRF Museum for an extraordinary expedition to the world’s most remote continent. We will cross the legendary Drake Passage and enter a breathtaking realm of towering glaciers, immense icebergs, snow-covered mountains, and remarkable wildlife. Along the Antarctic Peninsula, each day brings new possibilities—from watching penguins gather along the shore to spotting seals resting on the ice and whales surfacing among the bergs.

  Our home throughout this adventure will be the MS Roald Amundsen, HX Expeditions’ purpose-built, hybrid-powered expedition ship. Named for the legendary Norwegian polar explorer, the ship was designed specifically for voyages in polar waters. Its Scandinavian-inspired interiors, expansive observation areas, floor-to-ceiling windows, outside-facing cabins, restaurants, lounges, sauna, hot tubs, and infinity pool provide a comfortable and welcoming retreat amid some of the most dramatic scenery on Earth.

  At the heart of the ship is its interactive Science Center, where advanced equipment, hands-on demonstrations, workshops, and expert-led lectures help guests better understand the world unfolding beyond the windows. HX’s Expedition Team includes specialists in fields such as wildlife, history, climate, geology, marine biology, and polar exploration. Guests may also participate in citizen-science projects that contribute to a greater understanding of these remote environments.

  When conditions permit, the Expedition Team will lead small-boat cruises among the ice and escorted landings along the Antarctic Peninsula. Because weather, wildlife, and sea ice guide each day’s activities, no two Antarctic expeditions are exactly alike. That spirit of discovery is part of what makes the experience so remarkable.

  More than a cruise, this is a thoughtfully planned, all-inclusive expedition combining exploration, education, comfort, and genuine adventure. It is an opportunity to stand at the edge of the world, experience a place few people will ever see, and return home with a deeper understanding of our planet—and memories that will last a lifetime.

  
  

  

  

  
  

  Itinerary

  Day 1 — Buenos Aires

  Your Antarctic adventure begins in Buenos Aires, Argentina’s vibrant capital and the birthplace of tango. After checking into your included hotel, the day is yours to enjoy at leisure.

  Discover the city’s grand European-inspired architecture, colorful neighborhoods, inviting cafés, and traditional parrillas serving Argentine steak. Travelers wishing to explore more of Buenos Aires may choose to arrive several days before the expedition.

  Included: Overnight hotel accommodation and breakfast

  Day 2 — Buenos Aires to Ushuaia

  Begin the day with an early flight from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia, the capital of Argentina’s Tierra del Fuego Province and one of the southernmost cities in the world.

  Surrounded by mountains and overlooking the Beagle Channel, Ushuaia is the gateway to Antarctica. Upon arrival, transfer to the harbor and board your hybrid-powered HX expedition ship.

  After settling into your cabin, meet the Expedition Team and attend an important safety and expedition briefing. The ship then sets sail toward the Drake Passage and the Antarctic Peninsula.

  Included: Economy flight from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia, transfers, breakfast, lunch, and dinner

  Days 3–4 — Crossing the Drake Passage

  Spend two days crossing the legendary Drake Passage on the journey south to Antarctica.

  During the crossing, the Expedition Team will prepare you for the experiences ahead. Visit the onboard Science Centre and attend presentations about Antarctic wildlife, exploration history, glaciology, climate change, and environmental protection.

  You will also learn about safe and responsible landings, biosecurity procedures, and opportunities to participate in citizen-science projects. Between presentations, enjoy the ship’s restaurants, observation areas, Explorer Lounge, fitness facilities, sauna, pool, and wellness space.

  Watch from the outside decks for albatrosses, petrels, whales, and the first icebergs announcing your arrival in Antarctic waters.

  Included: Breakfast, lunch, dinner, beverages, lectures, and onboard activities

  Days 5–9 — Exploring Antarctica

  Spend five remarkable days exploring the Antarctic Peninsula and its surrounding islands.

  Each day’s activities will be determined by weather, wind, sea, wildlife, and ice conditions. Rather than following a fixed port schedule, the captain and Expedition Team will select the safest and most rewarding locations available.

  Possible experiences include:

  • Escorted landings on Antarctic shores

  • Zodiac cruises among icebergs and sea ice

  • Visits to penguin colonies

  • Whale, seal, and seabird watching

  • Guided walks through dramatic polar landscapes

  • Onboard lectures and scientific presentations

  • Citizen-science activities

  • Optional kayaking or other small-group adventures, subject to availability and conditions

  You may see gentoo, chinstrap, or Adélie penguins alongside seals and Antarctic seabirds. Wildlife varies throughout the season. Penguins court and build nests early in the season, chicks begin hatching around December and January, and whale sightings generally become more frequent in February and March.

  Towering glaciers, enormous sculpted icebergs, snow-covered mountains, and the extraordinary stillness of the polar wilderness provide the setting for each day. No two Antarctic expeditions are identical, and specific landing sites or wildlife encounters cannot be guaranteed.

  Included: Meals, beverages, Zodiac landings, ice cruising, Expedition Team activities, lectures, and use of expedition equipment
  Optional: Kayaking and selected small-group activities may carry an additional charge

  Days 10–11 — The Drake Passage

  After five days in Antarctica, turn north and begin the return crossing of the Drake Passage.

  These two days at sea offer time to reflect on the expedition, organize photographs, look for wildlife from the observation decks, and attend final presentations from the Expedition Team.

  Relax in the Explorer Lounge, sauna, pool, or wellness area while sharing memories of the journey with fellow travelers.

  Included: Breakfast, lunch, dinner, beverages, lectures, and onboard activities

  Day 12 — Ushuaia to Buenos Aires

  Arrive back in Ushuaia and disembark the expedition ship. Transfer to the airport for the included flight to Buenos Aires, where the HX program concludes.

  Travelers may continue home or extend their stay in Argentina with independent arrangements or an optional HX post-expedition program.

  Included: Breakfast, transfers, and economy flight from Ushuaia to Buenos Aires

  Important Itinerary Information

  This is an expedition itinerary rather than a conventional cruise schedule. All landings, Zodiac cruises, activities, and destinations are subject to weather, sea, and ice conditions. The captain and Expedition Team may change the daily program at any time to protect guest safety and provide the best experience available.

  Specific Antarctic landing sites are intentionally not guaranteed.

  

  
  

  This expedition requires a reasonable level of mobility, balance, and general fitness. Activities may include boarding and exiting Zodiac boats, climbing gangways or stairs, and participating in wet landings where guests step from a boat into shallow water before walking ashore. Terrain can be rocky, snowy, icy, slippery, or uneven, and there may be periods of standing and walking in cold, windy, and rapidly changing weather conditions.
  

  Most excursions are not strenuous, and guests may usually participate at a comfortable pace. However, travelers should be able to walk independently for moderate distances, maintain their balance on moving boats, and get into and out of Zodiacs with assistance from the expedition crew. Optional activities may be more physically demanding and can be skipped.

  
  

  

  Your Ship: MS Roald Amundsen

  Purpose-built for polar exploration, MS Roald Amundsen combines advanced expedition capabilities with modern Scandinavian comfort. Named for the legendary Norwegian explorer who was first to reach the South Pole, the ship uses hybrid electric propulsion designed to reduce fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions by approximately 20 percent.

  Warm, stylish interiors feature natural materials such as oak, birch, granite, and wool, while every cabin offers an outside view and many include private balconies. Between adventures, guests can enjoy three restaurants, the panoramic Explorer Lounge & Bar, an infinity pool, outdoor hot tubs, a sauna, a fitness room, and a wellness center. A two-level indoor and outdoor observation deck provides an ideal place to watch for whales, seabirds, and passing icebergs.

  At the heart of the ship is the interactive Science Center, where the Expedition Team hosts lectures, workshops, and hands-on activities covering Antarctic wildlife, history, climate, photography, and polar science. More than simply transportation, MS Roald Amundsen serves as a comfortable floating base camp for exploring one of the most remote and extraordinary regions on Earth.

  Explore the ship, accommodations, and onboard amenities.

  Watch the MS Roald Amundsen video walkthrough.

  7. Required Travel Insurance - Comprehensive travel insurance is required by HX. Coverage must include emergency medical treatment, medical evacuation, and repatriation from Antarctica. HX recommends at least $200,000 in medical-evacuation coverage.

  Participants should also obtain coverage for trip cancellation, interruption, delay, baggage loss, and independently purchased travel arrangements. Proof of qualifying insurance may be required before departure. CRF Museum and its travel partners are not responsible for losses that could have been covered by travel insurance.

  8. Antarctic Conduct and Environmental Requirements - All participants must follow the instructions of the ship’s captain, Expedition Team, crew, CRF Museum representative, local authorities, and applicable Antarctic Treaty and IAATO visitor guidelines.

  Participants must comply with wildlife-distancing rules, biosecurity procedures, landing restrictions, and all measures intended to protect Antarctica’s environment. Removing natural or historic objects, disturbing wildlife, leaving waste, or entering restricted areas is prohibited.

  A participant may be excluded from an activity or the remainder of the program, without refund, if their conduct threatens safety, disrupts the group, or violates environmental requirements.

  9. Independent Travel Arrangements - International airfare, pre- or post-tour accommodations, optional activities, insurance, and other independently arranged services are separate from the CRF Museum program.

  Seven League Travel may assist with additional arrangements. Advisors may receive commissions from those bookings. CRF Museum is not responsible for independently purchased or separately contracted services.

  10. Circumstances Beyond Our Control - CRF Museum may modify, postpone, or cancel the program because of severe weather, natural disaster, public-health emergency, war, civil unrest, government action, transportation disruption, supplier failure, or another circumstance beyond its reasonable control.

  In such cases, refunds will be limited to amounts recoverable from HX and other suppliers after deduction of the nonrefundable museum portion and any nonrecoverable expenses.

  11. Travel Agreement and Waiver - All participants must complete and sign the required Travel Agreement, liability waiver, health documentation, and supplier forms. Participation is contingent upon timely receipt of these documents.

  Participants are also bound by the applicable terms and conditions of HX Expeditions, transportation providers, accommodations, excursion operators, and other suppliers.
