National Geographic Endurance

National Geographic Endurance made an extraordinary debut in London last week, with the vessel passing the city’s iconic Tower Bridge before docking in the heart of the city beside the HMS Belfast.

Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic has launched two new itineraries that bring flexibility and choice to travellers seeking to experience The White Continent.

Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic has resumed operations in Antarctica for the 2021/22 season – marking the company’s return to service to the White Continent since the pandemic.

A christening ceremony for Lindblad-Expeditions’ first purpose-built expedition ship in 50 years was held in Reykjavik, Iceland ahead of the vessel’s inaugural sailing last week. National Geographic Endurance was the first-ever ship to be christened in Reykjavik Harbour.

Lindblad Expeditions’ inaugural voyage on its polar expedition ship, National Geographic Endurance, will commence from 21 July 2021 out of Reykjavik, Iceland.

Lindblad Expeditions marked another major milestone as the hull of National Geographic Resolution, the line’s second polar new-build, arrived at Ulstein Shipyard in Ulsteinvik Norway last weekend, following the construction of the main hull steelwork at CRIST S.A. in Gydnia, Poland.

Following her inaugural season voyaging the Arctic in 2020, National Geographic Endurance will depart on a new and unique itinerary that explores the seventh continent with two departures only. The voyage will explore where few humans have been before and will discover four stunning wilderness regions, from the Peninsula to the Ross Sea and New Zealand’s Sub-Antarctic Islands.

Lindblad Expeditions’ CEO & President, Sven Lindblad, has revealed details of the company’s first polar-build vessel, the 126-passenger National Geographic Endurance.
