🌍 Rediscover the World, Differently

There’s travel… and then there’s exploration. 🌎

On a National Geographic–Lindblad Expedition, every voyage becomes a story of discovery—one that reconnects you with nature, culture, and the incredible rhythm of the world around you. These are journeys where glaciers crack, penguins waddle, whales breach, and scientists turn lectures into life-changing lessons.

The newly unveiled 2027–2028 voyages take adventure to new depths (and heights!)—from sailing through the Arctic light to chasing a solar eclipse at sea.

🌞 The 2027 Solar Eclipse at Sea

✨ Azores to Barcelona: A Special Solar Eclipse Voyage

Imagine standing on deck, camera in hand, as the moon slowly shadows the sun—an awe-inspiring solar eclipse viewed from the Strait of Gibraltar, guided by National Geographic experts and photographers who help you capture the perfect shot.

This one-of-a-kind voyage blends astrotourism, natural phenomena, and adventure, making it a dream for travelers who want to say, “I saw the universe unfold from the sea.” 🌌

❄️ The Call of the Arctic

For explorers craving crisp air and untouched horizons, the expanded Arctic season is a masterpiece of nature.

Svalbard in spring and summer: witness polar bears, walruses, and seabirds in their untouched habitat.
Baffin Island: Exploring Canada’s Wild Arctic Frontier — pristine, vast, and endlessly humbling.
Fabled Lands of the North: Greenland to Newfoundland — a revived favorite from 2024, showcasing majestic fjords and ancient ice.

If you’ve ever dreamed of standing where snow meets sky, this is your moment. 🐻‍❄️❄️
