The ship was built in Finland at the Kvaerner Masa-Yards (now Meyer Turku) and launched as Mein Schiff 1 for TUI’s German brand, TUI Cruises.

Following a £50 million refurbishment, it re-emerged as the Marella Inari. The name "Inari" was chosen to evoke the pristine, mystical qualities of Lake Inari in Finnish Lapland—suggesting a sense of tranquility, clarity, and natural beauty. Today, the ship is the flagship of the Marella fleet’s "Explorer" class, specifically designed for itineraries off the beaten path. Marella Cruises is famous for its "Destination Experience"
