Lindblad Expeditions to Launch European River Voyages in 2026 with Transcend Cruises’ Fleet

Lindblad Expeditions has recently finalized a multi-year charter agreement with Transcend Cruises, marking their debut in European river cruising. This collaboration, which will last until at least 2028, is set to launch a series of expedition-style voyages along European rivers starting in 2026.

As part of this partnership, Lindblad will utilize Transcend’s newly constructed luxury riverboats, Transcend Connect and Transcend Evolve, which are designed to enhance the experiences offered by Lindblad’s expedition programs. Each voyage will feature experienced expedition leaders, field staff, and National Geographic experts, providing guests with an enriched exploration of charming riverside cities, towns, and villages.

The riverboats are tailored specifically for chartering, allowing for unique itineraries and onboard experiences that reflect Lindblad’s focus on expedition travel. Activities such as lectures, guided tours, and educational endeavors will be central to the experience, ensuring an immersive journey for all guests.

This venture into European river cruising extends Lindblad’s offerings beyond its traditional destinations, including the Galápagos, Antarctica, and the Arctic, aiming to deliver its renowned expedition experience to Europe’s historic waterways. More information about specific itineraries and vessel operations will be revealed in the coming months.
