Atlas Ocean Voyages has unveiled the inaugural season of Atlas Adventurer, which joins the Atlas fleet in November 2028. Highlights include the brand’s first-ever Asia and Africa itineraries.
Across the collection, guests will explore Japan, Southeast Asia, and the Indian Ocean before transitioning into East and Southern Africa. Atlas Adventurer debuts with two 12-day cruises sailing roundtrip from Kobe, departing on Nov. 6 and Nov. 18, 2028. The ship then starts voyaging with sailings going from Kobe to Hong Kong, Hong Kong to Bangkok, Bangkok to Bali, and so on throughout Southeast Asia before eventually moving to the Seychelles (Phuket to Mahé) and sailing three Africa cruises, before moving to the Mediterranean.
“This inaugural season is a defining moment for Atlas Ocean Voyages,” said James A. Rodriguez, president and CEO of Atlas Ocean Voyages. “With Atlas Adventurer, we are introducing entirely new destinations while staying true to our ethos of delivering deeply immersive, culturally rich journeys. These voyages are designed for discerning travelers seeking both discovery and refinement in some of the world’s most compelling destinations.”
For clients seeking deeper exploration, Atlas is introducing a collection of four Extraordinary Expeditions: extended voyages of 40 nights or more. The longest of these is a 128-night voyage from Kobe to Cape Town departing Kobe on Nov. 30, 2028. These journeys include exclusive amenities such as private ground transfers, special events, and commemorative gifts.
To celebrate the launch of Atlas Adventurer’s debut itineraries, Atlas is offering an Explorer’s Choice Inaugural Offer. Travelers reserving a suite onboard the all-suite Atlas Adventurer’s inaugural season can select one amenity from the following: an air credit of up to $3,000 per suite, complimentary unlimited Wi-Fi, or a pre-expedition hotel stay, while those booking within the Concierge Collection can choose two amenities. Guests booking a Reserve Collection Suite will enjoy all three amenities.
The inaugural season of Atlas Adventurer opens for booking for Atlas Yacht Club members on May 20, 2026, and to the general public on June 10, 2026.
