National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions combines adventurous, expedition-style cruising with environmental education. Since 1979, the company's fleet of small ships has helped travelers explore new destinations and visit wild places where unsullied beauty reigns.
On board, guests have access to state-of-the-art observation and research tools. Ships equipped with Zodiacs and kayaks offer a safe way to explore untamed waters, and activities ashore include wildlife-viewing, hiking and more. Itineraries are flexible and spontaneous so you won't miss out on nature's unplanned events.
Cultural experts, historians and naturalists lead group discussions and give lectures and presentations to enrich your journey. Guests can interact with world-renowned scientists, researchers and explorers, and a certified photo instructor is on almost every sailing.
The line's casual ship atmosphere means you never need to dress up. But informal doesn't mean deprivation; guests enjoy comfortable onboard accommodations and skillfully prepared meals.
