Expeditions by Private Charter

Welcome to

LINDBLAD EXPEDITIONS

For over 50 years, Lindblad Expeditions has specialized in authentic voyages to the world’s most interesting geographies. Lindblad’s roots stem from offering the first-ever laymen expedition to Antarctica in 1966, repeating the feat to the Galápagos, as well as sailing the first passenger ship to transit the Northwest Passage—effectively creating the category of expedition travel.

We employ nimble expedition ships, equipped with the tools and teams needed to explore the world’s most fascinating destinations—from Alaska to Antarctica, and inspiring locations in between. Our expertise, geographic knowledge, and commitment to the ideal of genuine engagement with the world’s natural wonders is your assurance of an extraordinary private charter experience.

“

The entire Lindblad staff and crew was focused in every aspect of their interactions with our members—and truly delivered seamless service. They created a sense of excitement and “newness” in all the different things that we saw and experienced on our trip.”

Gina Bach, Director, Once in a Lifetime at Exclusive Resorts
