Zodiac - the ultimate experience of freedom

On board the Hapag-Lloyd Cruises expedition fleet, you will explore the world's oceans and destinations in a very special way - by zodiac! Intensive training is followed by the driving test, for which there are probably the most extraordinary locations, such as the Antarctic.

As part of the Zodiac team, you will go on regular trips for the guests so that they can get ashore for their excursions and back on board again. We cover the costs for training and exams. 

What our crew says on board

"I am so grateful that I can experience and see something like this. In addition to the team, which is so motivating, you just have a wonderful time."

Melissa, Asst. Housekeeping Manager on the expedition fleet

"You can't compare the working atmosphere with that on land. It feels like a real family because you work together for 4 or 5 months and also spend your free time together."

Caner, Cook on the expedition fleet

"I've been here for eight years and have visited at least 120 countries. I am extremely happy to be here."

 

Đorđe, Receptionist on the expedition fleet

"You need to have courage and stamina. In return, you get the chance to travel to all the beautiful places and gain lots of new experiences."

Patsana, Chef de Rang on the expedition fleet

"My best moment was in Antarctica. I had just received my Zodiac license and then drove alone at sunset, in front of the glaciers and with a view of hundreds of penguins."

Matteo, Baker on the expedition fleet

"I think I have the best job on board. Our excursions with the Zodiacs go to the most remote places in the world, e.g. to caves or very close to the whales."

Alexandra, Shore Excursion Manager on the expedition fleet

"When I started my apprenticeship in the restaurant trade, I never thought I would be able to experience so many wonderful things in my job."

Kevin, Asst. Maitre on the expedition fleet

"You always have these little wow moments in everyday life. I like being on the expedition fleet because you get to different corners of the world that you wouldn't otherwise get to, such as the Arctic."

Tristan, Chef de Rang on the expedition fleet

"It was a good decision to go on the ship. I see a lot of the world and have different nationalities on board with whom I can exchange ideas."

Judith, Hairdresser on the expedition fleet
