Expedition

The main goal of expedition cruises is to visit remote and hard-to-reach places completely devoid of the comforts of modern civilization, while providing passengers with a high level of comfort and a rich educational program. The contrast between the “wild” realities of the land and the ship’s refined surroundings—with its fine cuisine and impeccable service—is particularly striking. These expeditions beckon with the romance of distant journeys in the spirit of the great explorers of the past, the thrill of conquering new frontiers, the opportunity to test your limits, and the chance to witness breathtaking natural beauty.

These are fascinating itineraries that will introduce you to the local, often untouched, flora and fauna, as well as the indigenous peoples living there with their traditions and customs. They feature a special itinerary that includes visits to unique ports in exotic countries and an unusual, challenging overland program with thrilling hikes, snowmobile races, whitewater rafting, helicopter tours, and picnics in exotic towns.

The most popular destinations for expedition cruises are: the Arctic and Antarctic, the Galápagos Islands, Tahiti, French Polynesia, Africa, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.
