The Allure of Epic Voyages

Some experiences only reveal their magnificence with ample time—and our epic voyages are extraordinary opportunities to slow down and explore the world in a different, more comprehensive way. These extended-length excursions not only bring you to seldom-seen and rarely explored destinations, but they also welcome the most delightful of travel companions: chance and spontaneity.

Founder Sven Lindblad took his first epic expedition early in his career. Watch as he shares memories from this 35-day voyage to Antarctica's awe-inspiring white kingdom and explains how our in-depth expeditions follow in the footsteps of history’s fabled quests of learning and discovery.
