Think cruising isn’t for you? Host Rona Wheeldon once felt the same - until she discovered expedition cruising.
Each week on The Expedition Cruise Podcast, you’ll explore small ships and extraordinary adventures - where exploration, wildlife, science and adventure come first. From polar routes to remote archipelagos, penguins to polar bears, and everything in between, this show is your guide to the fast‑growing world of expedition cruising.
Through solo episodes and expert interviews, Rona covers everything you need to know: what an expedition cruise really is, why you should consider one, who the providers are, where these ships explore and what you can expect onboard and ashore.
Small Ships. Extraordinary Adventures. Welcome to the World of Expedition Cruising.
