Nature’s Greatest Hits
Do you find yourself daydreaming as you stare blankly at the stunning, high-definition landscapes on your laptop’s wallpaper? Us too.
It’s time to put the “great” back into the Great Outdoors. Enter Lindblad Expeditions.
Traveling with Lindblad Expeditions is about embracing the wild, the remote, and sometimes, the chilly. With over half a century of experience in expedition cruising, Lindblad knows a thing or two because they’ve seen a thing or two.
So, pack your binoculars and your sense of adventure, and let’s embark on a journey that goes beyond any route on Google Maps.
The Amazon Rainforest
The Amazon Rainforest, a place so lush and green, it makes your local botanical garden look like a sad pet store. With Lindblad, you get to explore the less-touched parts of the Amazon, where the only traffic jams are caused by capybaras crossing the waterways. Go piranha fishing, birdwatch for species you didn’t know existed, and meet local communities who call this vast ecosystem home. Just remember, mosquitoes are part of the experience, so bring bug spray – a lot of it.
The Galápagos Islands
Welcome to Darwin’s playground, the Galápagos Islands. With Lindblad Expeditions, you can walk in the footsteps of Charles Darwin. Snorkel with playful sea lions, marvel at the blue-footed boobies doing their best to impress mates, and debate life choices with giant tortoises. The Galápagos is like the high school reunion of the animal kingdom – everyone’s there, and everyone’s weirdly fascinating.
Baja California
Imagine Mardi Gras, but underwater. Baja California is essentially a marine life party that we’re all invited to. With Lindblad Expeditions, you can snorkel with sea lion pups, watch gray whales breach while having your morning coffee, and explore hidden coves by kayak. It’s a place where the desert meets the sea in dramatic fashion, and where you can sip a margarita while watching the sunset paint the sky. Just don’t challenge a sea lion to a swimming race; they’re surprisingly competitive.
Antarctica
Let’s address the big, chilly elephant in the room: Antarctica. While there are more options for traveling to Antarctica than ever before, many alternatives pale in comparison to Antarctica with Lindblad. With Lindblad, you’re not just going to see Antarctica; you’re going to experience it. Think kayaking between ice floes, waking up to the sound of glaciers calving, and yes, the Polar Plunge, which is exactly as freezing as it sounds. Wildlife here includes the dapper penguin, the blubbery seal, and the occasional whale making a dramatic entrance.
The Kimberley
Imagine a place where crimson cliffs dive into turquoise seas, and waterfalls dare you to blink. Welcome to the Kimberley, a rugged landscape that’s more “Crocodile Dundee” than “Finding Nemo.” With Lindblad, you’re not just passing by; you’re getting into the nitty-gritty of the Outback. Picture yourself zipping around in Zodiacs (those inflatable boats that make you feel like a Navy SEAL), spotting saltwater crocodiles without losing a limb, and marveling at ancient rock art that makes your high school doodles look, well, like high school doodles. It’s a place where the term “wildlife” really does justice to both words.
The Arctic
Last but not least, the Arctic, where the sun doesn’t set, and the locals wear fur coats year-round (looking at you, polar bears). Lindblad’s expeditions here are like stepping into a snow globe, minus the shaking. Imagine cruising past glaciers, watching polar bears in their natural habitat (from a safe distance, of course), and experiencing the magic of the midnight sun. It’s a place where every day feels like a white Christmas, but with more daylight and less eggnog.
