In 1966, Lars-Eric Lindblad brought the first group of “citizen explorers” to Antarctica, and in the intervening 50+ years, Lindblad Expeditions has remained at the forefront of polar exploration. Join us on the 148-guest National Geographic Explorer, the 102-guest National Geographic Orion, or our newest ship the 126-guest National Geographic Endurance—all purpose-built Antarctic expedition ships designed to safely navigate the most remote, wild place on the planet.
