Because how we do it matters

Havila Voyages ship sailing through a calm Norwegian fjord, surrounded by steep mountains and clear sky.

When we receive awards, it’s because we take the time. We dedicate time to everything – from developing the world’s most environmentally friendly coastal route ships to crafting the best culinary concept in the cruise industry.

It’s the people along the coast who have taught us the value of doing things properly. Generations who have lived off the sea have shown us why we must take care of what we have, and this is ssomething we carry with us in everything we do.
