Experience Immersive and with Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic

Lars-Eric Lindblad led the first international tourist expedition to Patagonia in 1967, and for more than 50 years, Lindblad Expeditions has been bringing travelers deep into the region’s labyrinth of fjord lands to seek out wonders that can only be reached by small ship. Today, we take our South American voyages even further, sailing the coastline from tip to tail in search of pristine equatorial jungles and the continent’s most remote islands.

World-Class Expedition Ships

A trio of small, stylish, and comfortable worldclass expedition ships play host to our voyages along the South American coastline. Our 81-cabin National Geographic Explorer is equally at home in Patagonia’s open waters as she is on the Amazon’s sinuous tributaries. Our new, state-of-the-art sister ships National Geographic Endurance and National Geographic Resolution each feature 71 cabins, sleek Scandinavian design, and luxurious amenities such as infinity hot tubs and twin saunas.

Each vessel is stocked with a fleet of Zodiacs that allow us to explore without being dependent on ports or piers, while kayaks and paddleboards let you paddle deep into glacier-carved fjords and tropical coves. When we’re not out exploring, open decks and large windows keep us connected to extraordinary views of sapphire seas teeming with fur seals or jungle-fringed shores aflutter with macaws and toucans.
