Mediterranean
Ancient Roman ruins and medieval cities, cliff-top castles and picturesque ports—the treasures of the Mediterranean are seen in their full splendor on a National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions voyage. Guided by experts, explore the roots of civilization in Dubrovnik and Santorini, swim amid vibrant sea life in Turkey or hike majestic national parks in Albania. Discover iconic cities and little-known villages aboard the National Geographic Orion, expertly built to navigate these idyllic waters in comfort and style. Or, encounter vestiges of antiquity aboard the elegant tall ship Sea Cloud II—a traditional square-rigger that harkens back to the Golden Age of Sail.
“Most people associate National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions with wild destinations—but it’s also about history. They’re qualified with small ships and expert staff to personally immerse you in cultures so you get the most from your voyage.”
