Seabourn Pursuit - Kimberley Expedition: Waterfalls & Wandjinas
A ten-night expedition along Australia's remote Kimberley coast from Darwin to Broome, where the ship's 24 Zodiacs do the real work: running the gorge below King George Falls, riding the tidal rush at Talbot Bay's Horizontal Falls, and watching Montgomery Reef appear out of the sea on the falling tide. Shore visits include Wandjina and Gwion Gwion rock art with Worrorra traditional owners.

What Travelers Say About Seabourn Pursuit
Reviews of the ship itself — the same for every Seabourn Pursuit sailing. Based on 250 discussions.
Seabourn Pursuit, launched in 2023 as the sister to Seabourn Venture, is Seabourn's purpose-built ultra-luxury expedition ship, and it stands out by pairing genuine polar-capable adventure with the pampering of a high-end small-ship cruise. Carrying up to 264 guests in all-suite, veranda accommodations, it sails bucket-list expedition routes - Antarctica, the Australian Kimberley, Chilean fjords and the South Pacific - while keeping the caviar-on-demand, all-inclusive, white-glove Seabourn vibe. Reviewers consistently describe a polished, comfortable atmosphere where a deep expedition team and a near one-to-one crew ratio do the heavy lifting.
What People Love
- Genuinely ultra-luxury take on expedition cruising - all-suite accommodations with verandas, marble baths and high-end finishes far above typical expedition ships
- Near one-to-one crew-to-guest ratio (around 238 crew for 264 max guests) delivers intuitive, personalized service that reviewers repeatedly call a highlight
- Outstanding 24-to-26-member expedition team of geologists, marine biologists and ornithologists leading Zodiac landings and well-regarded onboard lectures
Common Complaints
- The signature submarines were withdrawn fleet-wide in early 2026, so the underwater-exploration feature heavily marketed at launch is no longer available
- At up to 264 guests it is large for an expedition ship versus rivals like Ponant and Lindblad (roughly 126-184), meaning bigger groups and fewer intimate wildlife encounters
- Multiple reviewers feel the cuisine, while high-end, is safe and underwhelming and that the Colonnade lags rivals like Regent, Silversea, Viking and Oceania
