Consistently rated one of the world’s best island destinations, Galápagos is like being in the ultimate zoo without the fences, and offers unprecedented proximity to wildlife that exhibit no fear of humans.  Every Lindblad-National Geographic expedition visits the Charles Darwin Research Station, which is celebrating 50 years of their important work breeding giant tortoises for repatriation, and scores of programs to protect the island and wildlife. Guests will see the results of their efforts firsthand—while walking among endemic giant tortoises in the wild.

Antarctica XXI Fly Cruise To Antarctica.


Flying over Cape Horn and the mythical waters of the Drake Passage, ANTARCTICA XXI invites you to a unique experience that will take you to one of the most remote places on earth, the coldest, highest, windiest, driest, and most inhospitable continent – Antarctica.

The aircraft BAE-146 was manufactured here in the United Kingdom . It is a high-wing aircraft with very short runaway requirements which make it particularly suited for these kind of destinations. It is operated by Aerovías DAP, which has more than 20 years of experience of flying in Patagonia and Antarctica.
