Discover amazing endemic wildlife, meet the locals and experience conservation in action as we explore the heart of New Zealand's easternmost islands on an unforgettable 10-day voyage. Visit Owenga, Waitangi and Kaingaroa on the main island, and explore Pitt Island and the outlying Star Keys, South East, The Sisters and The Forty-Fours Islands along with Pyramid Rock.
Our new 19-day, history- and geography-focussed expedition has been created in conjunction with our Russian history experts and will explore some of the least known and seldom visited shores on the planet as it retraces the remarkable history of the first ever transit of the Northern Sea Route. Experience numerous wildlife encounters with Polar Bears, walrus, whales and rich birdlife.

Together the three independent nations and two dependant colonies form one of the most culturally complex regions in the world, with some 1,293 languages spoken across the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, New Caledonia and New Guinea. It is also a region of great antiquity with ...
The Subantarctic Islands are tiny havens for some of the most abundant and unique wildlife on the planet. They lie in the cool temperate or Subantarctic Zone to the south and east of New Zealand in the great southern ocean that encircles Antarctica.
