Traveling the world’s remote wild spaces
Wake up in the midst of one of our Earth’s most pristine ecosystems. Sail between floes of sea ice in Svalbard’s Arctic Ocean. Trek with the critically endangered Lowland Gorillas the understory of the old-growth rainforests of the Republic of Congo. Slow down and become enveloped by profound silence, power, and beauty of nature.
Find your moments with Arctic Tern Expeditions.
Small groups.
Big experiences.
Explore. Engage. Conserve.
Travel, done the right way, has the power to educate and inspire. To connect and influence. To strengthen and benefit local communities and wild spaces. After years of traveling the globe, we have made a commitment to pursuing travel experiences that tell stories about and directly benefit the people and wildlife we visit.
When you join us on an expedition, you will see examples of the successes and challenges of conservation efforts around our world. It is our hope that these experiences inspire you to share the stories of these places with your friends, family, and community.
"In the end we will conserve only what we love; we will love only what we understand; and we will understand only what we are taught."
(Baba Dioum, 1968.)
“The Trip of a Lifetime”
What does it mean to give you the “trip of a lifetime”? To us, this means the highest levels of service to you, our guest, before, during, and after our expeditions. This means maintaining the utmost regard for local culture, wildlife, and the surrounding environment as we explore our planet. This means an unfailing dedication to telling the conservation stories of wildlife and local communities through travel.
We do this because we know travel - when done the right way - can change our lives and the lives of those we meet for the better.
