This handsome vessel began her career as the popular Harald Jarl,
cruising the Norwegian coastline and fjords where she developed
quite a following over the years. Purchased and extensively renovated
in 2003 by Elegant Cruises & Tours, the newly christened Andrea
provides a welcome return to the intimacy and classic nautical
sensibility often lacking in larger ships.
Staterooms are attractively designed for comfort and convenience,
fully air conditioned with modern bathrooms and thoughtful appointments.
Our international service staff has achieved high marks from passengers
for their hospitality and professionalism.
Delicious meals are freshly prepared by internationally trained
chefs, and served in leisurely single sittings in the Shearwater
Restaurant. Other features include a forward Observation Deck
and two passenger lounges.
