Comments

One of the rare opportunities to travel to Iceland on a cargo ship.

This trip can only be booked as a round trip.

In Rotterdam, embarkation takes place with a cab service, which takes passengers to the ship and provides competent assistance during embarkation (subject to a charge, approx. €60 each way). Embarkation without the cab service is not possible on this voyage.

From April 2025, an ETA is required for entry to the UK, to be applied for via gov.uk or via the corresponding app.

Age limit 79 years.

Canteen goods can only be paid for with US$ in cash (intact bills) and matching Euro.

  • Dear Mrs Pfeiffer and Mrs Weber,

    I would just like to let you know that my 7 day trip was just perfect!

    I had a very good experience and even the weather was perfect.

    Thank you once again for your agency’s excellent service.

    Best regards

  • Dear Nina,

    I would like to first thank you for organising the trip for my father. He has now returned to France full of great memories and happy anecdotes.

    Thank you so much for having the patience to help fulfil his dream. I will wholeheartedly recommend your company to anyone interested in cargo trips.

    Thank you so much again for everything

  • Many thanks again for my latest cargo ship experience which was wonderful.
    I enjoyed the trip on the Gerda, with Captain H. who ensured that I had my best experience to date. Also, a mention to the Chef, who made very tasty meals, also to all the crew, I can’t list all their names, unfortunately, however, all staff combined made my experience so enjoyable and I will definitely try to go on that route again to meet them again.
    I highly recommend this trip!
    You are very...
