GO FARTHER

By Andrew McCarthy

I headed down to the river. I had a notion that I might get on a boat to Belém, on the coast, three days away. When I arrived at the port my nerve left me. I don’t know what I’d been expecting—ports can be hardscrabble places in the most idyllic of locales— and Manaus, in the heart of the Amazonian rainforest of northern Brazil, is not the most idyllic of locales. There is little to hold a traveler’s interest, save for the opera house, constructed at the height of the brief and glorious rubber boom in the late 19th century. The building sits in the jungle town like a birthday cake for a gorilla. After a few days of hanging around I was at my wits’ end, itching to move.

The scene at the waterfront was chaos. River boats were tied three-deep. Toughlooking men climbed through one boat on the way to the next to load gear. A small motor was hoisted high overhead on the precarious-looking winch, sacks of rice burdened sloping shoulders, huge bundles of bananas were tossed like footballs.

Everyone was shouting. The boats themselves were listing and although only half loaded, already sat low in the black water.

On two boats people were staking out turf, slinging hammocks from the beams of the roof that protected the open air deck from the heavy Amazonian rains. “If they could do it…” I thought. But these people were of this place, this was their life, they used this transport to get to work, to return to their family. I was on a lark.

But I had set out from home in a conscious endeavor to get away from my comfort, to experience things I didn’t in my daily lIfe, to go farther. I knew I could never do this. I turned to leave. Then I saw the small, whitewashed shed.

“Just go a little farther,” I said to myself.

I approached the stout man behind the counter, his face was deeply creased. He told me it cost only a few reais for the journey down river.

“I could spare a few bucks,” I thought. “Just buy a ticket, it can’t hurt.”

NORTH AMERICA From sea to shining sea, North America showcases its wildness—from Newfoundland’s striking fjords and Alaska’s calving glaciers to flocks of pink flamingos in the Bahamas and Baja’s mother and calf gray whales. Breathe the sweet, sultry perfume of the Barrier Islands’ Spanish moss-draped oaks and the bracing fresh air of a British Columbia old growth rainforest. In remote, roadless places, jet boat through sinuous Hells Canyon or kayak in the still mangroves of uninhabited Conception Island where sea turtles forage and boobies nest. Follow the trails of Vikings, Christopher Columbus, and Lewis and Clark and learn about cultures like the Gullah-Geechee people of the coastal South and the Haida whose ancestors settled in Haida Gwaii nearly 13,000 years ago. For all our differences, one thing is certain: North America offers unmatched, mystical wild encounters with Spirit Bears and manta rays, crashing hidden waterfalls and deep blue holes swirling with marine life.

PLANT-FORWARD & OCEAN-CENTRIC: A NEW WAY TO CRAFT CHEESE Aboard the ships of the Lindblad Expeditions fleet, farm-to-table food has been a reality for some time, thanks to the innovative thinking and passion of Ana Esteves, Lindblad Expeditions’ Director of Hotel Operations. In 2017, Ana started a farmto-table program in Galápagos that bolstered local agriculture to the point where Lindblad Expeditions is now purchasing some 86 tons of fresh produce per year.

And thanks to Ana’s leadership, other travel companies operating in Galápagos are following suit, measurably benefiting the islands’ economy. We are one of the only expedition companies provisioning fresh produce in the Southern Ocean—from hydroponic growers in the remote Falkland Islands. And Ana is cultivating farm-totable relationships in the Arctic, Baja, Central America, and Alaska, as well.

Our galley teams have been provisioning with sustainable meats and seafood, local whenever possible in all the regions we explore, for decades now. So, it’s not surprising to learn that Ana is in the vanguard again, leading a shift that mirrors a growing global trend, toward more plant-forward offerings on our ships.

“The shift toward plant-forward options, for me personally, and for the new inspiration of our menus, is being driven more by the real threat of environmental collapse, than vegan ethics, or vegan cooking,” Below: Loaded with eye appeal, plantforward cheeses are delicious too.

Ana explains. “Unlike Eleven Madison (the elite, culturally-significant, Michelinstarred Manhattan restaurant), which announced its switch to an exclusively plant-based menu; or (online recipe site) Epicurious’s decision to eliminate all beefbased recipes, our menus across the fleet will continue to be diverse, to satisfy the diverse desires of our guests, while widening to include multiple plantbased options for all meals daily.”

To kindle the plant-forward conversation on our expeditions, however, she’s chosen a dramatic focal point: cheese. Vegan cheese, to be specific.

Cultivated onboard, nurtured in a novel terroir of fresh sea air, far from cows, goats, sheep, or terra firma, the culinary team’s array of

46

cheeses, as the photographs featured here show, is

1

stunning evidence of creativity, manual dexterity, and something along the lines of bio-mimicry.

Pioneered in the galley aboard the brand-new polar vessel National Geographic Endurance, these artisanal vegan cheese are made by sprouting and fermenting various nuts and seeds, and carefully monitoring their processes, as different seeds and

2

nuts proceed at different rates. Almonds, for example, typically require 48 hours to transform; other nuts sprout within 6-12 hours. Artistry is involved in the blending, flavoring, shaping, and consistencybuilding, depending on the type of cheese. Then,

3

each cheese is processed, aged, and stored for various intervals.

Given the success of these early efforts, vegan

5 4

cheeses will soon be cultivated by all chefs of the Lindblad Expeditions fleet, reflecting, however subtly, the unique terroirs of each ship and destination. Will some future guests with heightened palates be able to distinguish cheese produced on National Geographic Orion in Polynesia from one crafted aboard

An array of delectable vegan

cheeses and condiments.

Fjords? Possibly. However, what’s certain is that tastings of these vegan cheeses will stimulate

new range of flavors, textures, and possibilities

And cheese is only the beginning of Ana’s vanguard approach to fine expedition dining.

ANTARCTICA & PATAGONIA Navigating around the colossal, incandescent ice forms that dwarf our Zodiacs and kayaks, the sheer scope of the White Continent and its sheets of pristine white ice stretching as far as the eye can see will humble even the most intrepid of explorers. To the vast colonies of penguins—numbering in the tens of thousands on South Georgia Island alone—add majestic whales, leopard and elephant seals, and the Falklands’ remarkable gathering of 70 percent of the world’s albatrosses. Patagonia is also an enchantress, beckoning with its snowcapped saw-toothed peaks and the tumbling glaciers and gleaming icefalls of Glacier Alley. Dramatic landscapes—fjords, steppes, forests, and lakes—are stunning habitats for marine wildlife like humpback whales, dolphins, and penguins and avian species from massive condors and rheas to tiny parakeets and flamingos. Exclusive access to the remote island off the tip of Tierra del Fuego and a private nature reserve add to these expeditions’ wow factors.

THE ARCTIC The sheer visual splendors of the distinct Arctic regions we explore remain indelibly imprinted long after a return to our more mundane surroundings. The dramatic sea cliffs of the Faroe Islands alive with thousands of nesting puffins.

Iceland’s otherworldly terrain of steaming volcanoes, geothermal springs, and crashing waterfalls. Norway’s renowned fjords, carved by glaciers over millions of years; and Greenland’s stunning Ilulissat Icefjord, where massive icebergs soar upwards of 300 feet. The wildlife we encounter is just as astounding as the landscapes they inhabit. The polar bear, of course, is king, and we offer expeditions to two of the best places on Earth to observe these magnificent creatures—Svalbard and Wrangel Island. Don’t forget arctic foxes, reindeer, and musk ox; and in the icy seas we cross, beluga and bowhead whales, walruses, ringed seals, and perhaps even narwhals can make appearances.

RUSSIAN FAR EAST To explore the Bering Sea and North Pacific is to encounter fascinating littleknown cultures, volcanic landscapes, and wild places barely on human radars.

Well above the Arctic Circle, more polar bears give birth on Wrangel Island than anywhere else on Earth, and this island at the 180th meridian is also where the world’s largest population of Pacific walrus gathers. In these remote regions, brown bears grab rainbow trout and salmon in pristine rivers, gray whales feed and sperm whales travel in pods, seals announce themselves in noisy rookeries, and rare avian species like the endangered Blakiston’s fish owl, enormous Stellar’s sea eagle, and sacred red-crowned crane can be spotted. The peoples of these distant coastlines and far-flung archipelagos have histories, cultures, and languages not widely known in the world. We’ll meet Chukchi and Yupik villagers who follow their ancestral ways living on the bounties of the sea, Koryak reindeer herders, and Ainu in the Kuril Islands and Hokkaido.

VIETNAM & CAMBODIA The ancient ways of life in Vietnam and Cambodia are alive today in floating markets, traditional rice harvesting and fish farming, and skilled artisanal creations like hand-woven silk. As we float down the mighty Mekong, the heart and soul of these countries, we discover its pulsating rhythms in traditional villages and bustling cities and thoughtfully explore sublime jungle-shrouded temples highlighted by Angkor. A visit to Angkor reaches far beyond a single temple. It is a deep and expansive exploration of the intriguing Khmer civilization through its architecturally magnificent 12th-century city of temples.

Fully explore the complex beginning with sunrise at Angkor Wat followed by a discovery of Angkor Thom’s castle-like fortifications, Ta Prohm’s fascinating ruins, still largely encircled by jungle vines, and the temple of Banteay Srei, a favorite of photographers for its elaborate carvings. A private dinner at a temple will be an evening to remember. There are opportunities throughout the expedition to engage with locals at schools and crafts workshops and to understand the complicated history of these two culturally rich countries.

DANCES, SPIRIT HOUSES & RITES: ENDURING CULTURES OF THE PACIFIC ISLES

By Tom Ritchie Lindblad Expeditions is returning to the islands of the South TOM RITCHIE is a professional naturalist and expedition leader who has worked with Lindblad Expeditions since the pioneering days of LarsEric Lindblad. Growing up near the Everglades allowed him to spend his youth exploring the swamps, marshes, forests, and reef systems of South Florida, a perfect training ground.

Benefit from Tom’s expertise in these islands on two upcoming expeditions: Under the Southern Cross: New Zealand to Melanesia (page 92) and Rites & Relics: From the Solomon Islands to Fiji (page 93).

Pacific. We think we are familiar with the cultural aspects of the people who live here from what we have seen on television and in films—primarily centered in just two island groups in Polynesia: the Hawaiian Islands and the Society Islands, both of which have had long associations with westerners—missionaries, whalers, traders, colonizers, and international tourists.

However, there are many other islands throughout the South Seas with which most of us are not familiar—particularly in the regions known as Melanesia and Micronesia, as well as the more remote Polynesian islands.

These islands have a mild climate throughout the year. Much of their food comes from trees that require little, if any, maintenance, and can be enjoyed throughout the year. Fish from the local waters, domesticated pigs and chickens, and a few crops, such as taro, yams, sweet potatoes, and manioc, make up additional staples. The forests supply building materials for traditional thatched house construction. Therefore, conditions afford people plenty of time for artistic and social pursuits—gathering around a bonfire on the shore, eating and drinking, telling stories, laughing, and of course, it usually includes singing and dancing.

island group in Polynesia, we will be welcomed with a fierce warrior dance performance and shown a historic “cannibal oven” that dates to the period before 19th-century Christian missionaries converted the inhabitants. On the Micronesian island of Guam, we will learn of the interesting Chamorro culture, which is a blending of Micronesian, American, European, Asian, and Rom dance, Vanuatu.

Some of the cultural features we expect to see include the secretive Rom dance that is unique to Ambryn Island, Vanuatu, which is performed by men wearing incredible masks and elaborate fullbody outfits that represent spirits. In the Solomon Islands, we’ll learn about the snake and turtle clans on Owaraha and visit their revered spirit house. On the Fijian island of Beqa (pronounced em-beng’ a), we will observe the traditional firewalkers who pad barefoot on searing boulders in a sacred fire pit. In Wallis and Futuna, an

rocks high into the sky. This makes for an amazing site for rowdy and energetic dances with wild chanting and masses of people jumping in unison with grass skirts and pounding sticks. These are just a few of the amazing cultural properties we expect to experience. And because we will be on an expedition, there will be many fascinating facets we don’t expect!

PACIFIC ISLES Volcanic peaks rise dramatically from turquoise lagoons and steep cliffs drop straight to deserted beaches. An astonishing array of marine life inhabits clear, warm water: 20 species of whales and dolphins, 16-foot manta rays, green sea turtles, and vast schools of tropical fish dart around multicolored galaxies of healthy corals. Dine on a private motu; float in a hidden cave; spot an ultramarine lorikeet on a rainforest hike or a fairy tern while kayaking in a secluded cove. Find your perfect paradise in the iconic landscapes of jagged green peaks, pristine beaches, and the bluest of blue waters, continuing the legacy of explorers, writers, and artists like James Cook, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Paul Gauguin.

Idyllic surroundings are a given but what many find surprising is how much these islands are steeped in history and culture. Through meeting welcoming locals and seeing dance performances, thousand-year-old petroglyphs, an eight-foot moss-covered tiki, sacred sites called marae, and Easter Island’s iconic moai, we learn about this region’s proud history and cultures.

IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC, WATER IS THE MEDIUM & THE MESSAGE ‘50 shades of blue.’ That’s the tourist board description of Polynesian’s clear waters, and it’s valid—extending into the furthest reaches of the Pacific. Water is the highway here, conducting the graceful, yacht-scale National Geographic Orion to and among far-flung islands of surpassing beauty and intrigue. And water is the point, a key reason to come—to explore the vivid, vibrantly alive undersea; or simply to revel in the joys of being water-active daily. Paddleboard, kayak. Swim off National Geographic Orion’s platform in the heart of the blue, or from a pristine, palm-fringed beach. Snorkel a reef or above the gentle glide of a manta ray, or get current-caught on a thrilling drift snorkel. For those who are advanced SCUBA-certified, our expeditions provide a rare kind of live-aboard luxury.

And the Pacific shares secrets, too: crystalline waters in a limestone grotto. Or the plunge at the apex of a hike to a tropical waterfall. Come for the waters, discover many wonders.

NEW ZEALAND Sail into jaw-dropping Milford Sound with countless glacier-fed waterfalls plummeting down soaring peaks. Hop off a Zodiac to walk along a deserted white sand beach or hike into a rare podocarp forest. Navigating the verdant coastlines of the North and South Islands, we access special places not reachable by land. In the surrounding waters we can observe whales and dolphins including the diminutive Hector’s dolphin, which is among New Zealand’s extraordinary number of endemic species like kiwis and keas. The islands are alive with 300 species of birds including a colony of 20,000 gannets and a rare breeding colony of the magnificent royal albatross. If you really want to be wowed by major wildlife populations, head to the wildly beautiful sub-Antarctic islands that we visit by special permit. Few humans have observed their millions of penguins, thousands of seals, and other fauna and flora found nowhere else in the world. Integral to understanding New Zealand culture, we visit important Maori sites and spend time in sophisticated cities.

EUROPE & THE MEDITERRANEAN From the North Sea to the Mediterranean and from Orkney to the Suez Canal, our expeditions deliver special experiences in iconic destinations. Walk with a historian in the footsteps of Allied troops on Omaha Beach, cruise the storybook canals of Bruges on a private boat tour, taste locally produced marzipan in Lübeck, and collect mussels with a Galician fisherman. History is brought to vivid life at legendary sights of antiquity like the Egyptian pyramids, Crete’s Minoan city, and Scotland’s Neolithic Skara Brae. Architectural wonders include the legendary palaces of the Alhambra and Sintra, Santiago de Compostela’s medieval cathedral, glorious Mont-Saint-Michel, and the billowing metal façade of the Guggenheim Bilbao. Sail through Norway’s dramatic fjords, stroll along Amsterdam’s canals, taste whisky on Skye and port in Porto. Diminutive Shetland ponies can be seen in their natural habitat and minke whales, porpoises, and other marine animals often show themselves at sea. But it’s pelagic birds that most often appear, sometimes in enormous numbers as in the tens of thousands of gannets, guillemots, fulmars, puffins, and kittiwakes that nest on the seabird skyscraper of Noss Island.

DISCOVER EUROPE ANEW & ENJOY ‘SLOW TRAVEL’ TOO Many people yearned for the remembered scale, charms, warmth, and patina of European villages and vistas during the pandemic.

Designed to do more than merely make up for lost travel time, our expeditions explore a Europe ideal for these times—one far from airports, railyards, and rental cars.

We skillfully steer onto the beaten path when it matters (who wants to miss a visit to Mont-Saint-Michel?) and off it to surprise even the most Europe-savvy (an exclusive tasting at an ancestral oyster farm in Bretagne? Heaven!)

With the exception of sea time on our longer voyages, there’s very little downtime—our team makes the most of your desire to see it all. Given that, our week-long voyages will seem to go by fast, but there’s no need for speed. You can enjoy the benefits of slow travel, aboard the brand-new National Geographic Resolution, with her stunning décor and superb amenities. And save 10%, too.

The pace, the kaleidoscopic variety, and the sheer ease of distance-eating ship travel, coupled with the quality of life aboard National Geographic Resolution offer a deeply rewarding alternative to the ‘before times’ ways of exploring Europe.

Save 10% when you combine all three, or any two of the following seven-day itineraries: Culture & Cuisine from Porto to Basque Country (page 111); Medieval to Modern: Tracing History from Bordeaux to Dublin (page 112); and/or Wild Isles: Rugged Coasts of Scotland & Ireland (page 113).

OUR SHIPS Our expedition ships are framing devices through which you look at the world. Our ships galvanize your gaze, directing it outward, enabling you to pay the same rapt and informed attention to wildlife and wild places that our species gives to the culture we value—art, music, and performance. As a result, after an expedition your senses are heightened. You see your surroundings in keener detail, and benefit from dopamine and other rich brain rewards that come from sustained attention, not just ‘clicks’ or ‘likes.’

It’s what makes ship-based travel so vital to the Lindblad Expeditions mission to explore and understand the world.

And now that our fleet has grown—with more blue-water ships, come more blue-sky possibilities.

Self-Disinfecting Ships Lindblad Expeditions became the first self-disinfecting fleet with the rollout of the ACT CleanCoat™ system in 2019.

This photocatalytic cleaning process activates when illuminated, continuously breaking down unwanted microbes such as bacteria, viruses, mold, and airborne allergens. The positive environmental impacts of this non-toxic, chemical-free system are many: less plastic in the supply chain and waste stream, and more than one million gallons of water saved annually. The system lowers our carbon footprint and creates a cleaner, healthier shipboard environment for guests and crew alike.

And life onboard is remarkable. Being in the wild doesn’t mean renouncing comfort, cossetting amenities, or superb food. Our hotel team will know what you like and how you like it from Day One. Regardless of how often you’re in your cabin, it will be immaculate when you return. And, understanding the age-old adage that “an expedition travels on its stomach,” our chefs and their galley teams make dining daily full of interest, discovery and in many cases, the rich flavors of the region you’re exploring.

Wherever possible, and our team has expanded the notion of possible, it will be local and/or sustainably produced or caught.

We invite you to dream big.
