Curious about expedition cruising? Here are three things you should know:
1. Discovery
There’s more than meets the eye when you venture out on an expedition cruise. With naturalists, historians, and other specialists forming the onboard team, you will not only experience a travel dream, but you will be able to immerse yourself in an array of knowledge in each location. Wildlife, geography, history, and culture are just a few topics you will learn about in workshops and presentations.
2. Adventure
Expedition cruising is all about exploring off-the-beaten path destinations. Zodiac excursions, hiking, wildlife spotting, snorkeling, photography – these are just a few examples of what you might enjoy on your adventure. Worried that you’re not in shape for all of this? No need! There are excursions for all levels of activity.
3. Comfort
Sure, you’ll go on excursions into the wild and discover destinations at the edge of the world, but you’ll always enjoy the comfort of your expedition ship after an amazing and exhilarating day of exploration. Expedition ships are usually small and offer the best of both worlds by allowing you to visit remote places while enjoying a cozy stateroom, a friendly and casual atmosphere, and an enriching environment where you can meet well-traveled people.
