The world’s oceans remain among the last great wilderness areas on our planet. Travelling by sea offers a unique and rewarding way to experience many of nature’s most remarkable spectacles, reaching remote regions that remain largely untouched and, in some cases, inaccessible by air.

In addition to our marine itineraries, we also explore some of the world’s most biodiverse freshwater environments. Travelling along vast river systems in destinations such as Brazil and India, these tours reveal a rich variety of wildlife and habitats, offering a different perspective on some of the planet’s most important ecosystems.

Paul Stanbury

Our wildlife cruise specialist recommends

"If you love whales and dolphins I’d recommend our Baja & Sea of Cortez cruise. The world’s largest concentration of cetaceans is found here, but book early as this tour sells out quickly! I’d also suggest ‘Spitsbergen – Realm of the Polar Bear’ for a spectacular combination of wildlife and scenery.”

Paul Stanbury - Operations Manager

Naturetrek wildlife cruises offer:

  • A range of cruising experiences, from exclusively chartered 50-berth expedition ships to smaller motor yachts & schooners

  • Arctic & Antarctic cruises in ships with specially strengthened hulls

  • Each voyage is accompanied by expert naturalists

  • Wide range of wildlife cruises from five continents

We have been running wildlife cruises for over 30 years and if your image of cruising is endless deck quoits or bingo, think again! A life on the ocean waves can be a permit to witness scenes of natural splendour that most people will only ever see on their television screens.
