Expedition cruising vacations
Expedition cruising vacations take you to the earth’s extremes accompanied by expert guides. Voyage past icebergs into the polar regions, or explore far flung archipelagos adrift in the Pacific. But as pioneering as this may sound, no roughing it is involved; following your day’s adventures you’ll enjoy gourmet meals, a comfy cabin and – depending on your trip – on-board lectures, saunas, libraries and of course, dreamy views from the deck.
