A new Aurora Expeditions cruise ship has just been named in Sydney Australia and begun its first journey to Antarctica. The Aurora Douglas Mawson is a small expedition cruise ship, designed with exploration and scientific research in mind, much like its name’s sake? So, is the Douglas Mawson Aurora ship any good? Find out as cruise vlogger Chris Stead takes you on a full Aurora Douglas Mawson tour.
Note, this is not an Aurora Expeditions cruise review, or a Aurora Douglas Mawson review - just a cruise ship tour. But you will see highlights of the Douglas Mawson naming ceremony, right before it sets off on an Aurora Expeditions Antarctica cruise.
Is this the best expedition cruise ship yet?
