An Extraordinary Legacy of Exploration
National Geographic Expeditions was founded on the same belief in the importance of exploration that distinguishes the National Geographic Society's 130-year history. Launched in 1999, National Geographic Expeditions now operates hundreds of trips each year, spanning all seven continents and more than 80 destinations.

Since its founding in 1888, the Society has developed incredible resources—from its network of experts, contacts, and Society-sponsored researchers all over the globe, to the top-tier editorial staff of National Geographic and National Geographic Traveler magazines, and the books, maps, and film and television divisions. National Geographic Expeditions taps these resources to create unique and authentic expeditions to fascinating parts of the world.

National Geographic Expeditions aims to fulfill the Society's mission to inspire people to care about the planet by providing meaningful opportunities to explore it. Proceeds from all travel programs support the Society’s efforts to increase global understanding through exploration, education and scientific research.

National Geographic Expeditions
National Geographic Expeditions span the globe and are designed to reflect our travelers' broad spectrum of interests. We travel on land, aboard small ships, along classic train routes, and in the comfort of a private jet, and we offer special trips for photographers, families, and independent travelers. When you travel with us on an expedition, you'll enjoy boundless opportunities to be surrounded by natural wonders and exotic wildlife, to explore celebrated archaeological sites, to learn about different cultures and share in local traditions. A National Geographic Expert or expert team accompanies most expeditions, sharing their knowledge and passion for a region and making each experience enriching and unforgettable.

National Geographic Journeys with G Adventures
Offered in collaboration with G Adventures, National Geographic Journeys and National Geographic Family Journeys are small-group trips built on meaningful encounters with people and places, interactions with knowledgeable local guides, and fun—all at an unbeatable value! Each of our National Geographic Journeys itineraries blends hands-on exploration with opportunities to forge human connections with people we meet all around the world. Usually limited to 16 or fewer travelers, these tours offer more free time and choices with the structure and security of traveling in a small group.

National Geographic Family Journeys are designed for families with children ages seven and up. Each trip is led by two guides who are specially trained to engage with young travelers, and features interactive activities inspired by National Geographic’s expertise in photography and storytelling, wildlife, history, geography, and more. Families will enjoy enlightening experiences, the freedom to explore, and quality time together—and return home with a renewed sense of wonder.
