Land Based Expeditions
Stay in a comfortable accomodation on land and go out exploring every day
For some of our expeditions, a land-based accomodation offers you the best opportunities to explore. Whether it’s a luxury glamping tent on a beach in Mexico, or a yurt in Arctic Canada. The accomodations are located as close as possible to the wildlife watching sites, resulting in minimal transfer time.





For our land-based expeditions we work with trusted partners. They are experts in expeditions to the remote corners of our planet which we can’t reach by ship. Imagine travelling to the frozen interior of the Antarctic continent, or a journey to the edge of the North Pole ice floe.

Our travel experts are happy to help you find your expedition of a lifetime.
