Expedition cruises venture where other ships cannot reach, and so they enable you to explore some of the most remote and specialist areas of the world, from Antarctica to Alaska; the Amazon to the Galapagos.

This exciting type of cruising brings you closer to nature and tends to focus on immersing you into the destinations you visit, rather than the entertainment onboard. Onboard an Expedition cruise, you can expect an array of fascinating lectures and talks from experts who will also join you on excursions.

Expedition ships range in size and design, varying from icebreaker vessels, which have very few amenities, to 6-star cruising, where you will find the highest levels of service and comfort.

A whole new generation of small expedition style ships are being built to meet the demand of this growing trend.
