Exploring the World: National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions Unveils 2027–2028 Global Voyage Program

National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions has announced its plans for the 2027-2028 season, reinforcing its commitment to global exploration across all continents. Known for their skilled expedition leaders, naturalists, and experts from National Geographic, Lindblad’s journeys are designed to align with the preferences of their guests. Chief Expedition Officer Trey Byus emphasizes the itineraries aim to balance access, pacing, and cultural sensitivity, supporting the notion that travel can enhance appreciation for the planet and encourage conservation efforts.

One significant aspect of the upcoming season is the return to Oceania. The ship, National Geographic Resolution, will reintroduce the 11-day itinerary, "Pearls of the Pacific: The Society and Tuamotu Islands." Additionally, for the first time in four years, the company will visit Easter Island through the 18-day journey "Easter Island to Tahiti: Tales of the Pacific."

The offerings in Alaska and the Pacific Northwest will expand, featuring core itineraries such as the 8-day "Alaska’s Inside Passage" and the 11-day "Voyage to the Great Bear Rainforest," alongside longer programs like the 14- and 15-day "Treasures of the Inside Passage." These itineraries will be operated by the National Geographic Quest and National Geographic Venture, both tailored for coastal exploration.

In Japan, the 16-day "Coastal Japan: Imperial Dynasties and Modern Culture" voyage will see an increase in sailings. Meanwhile, in Europe and the Mediterranean, diverse options will include the 8-day "Islands of the Azores: Basalt Peaks to Volcanic Vineyards" and the 8-day "Ancient Mediterranean: Exploring Greece, Croatia, and Albania."

For the Galápagos Islands, the operator will utilize its fleet of purpose-built vessels, which now comprises four ships, including the 16-guest National Geographic Delfina and the ultra-luxury super-yacht, National Geographic Islander II. Each vessel is designed to facilitate educational experiences and immersive wildlife encounters in this unique archipelago.
