Creator's Key Takeaways

We are the oldest expedition company been around 130 years but people may associate us more with Herugutin.

We have what we believe is the perfect balance for expedition and that's that's really three elements that we think we do extremely well. uh one is adventure, two is comfort and three is sustainability.

We're the first company to eliminate heavy fuels, the first to eliminate single-use plastics.

We have the largest science centers at sea. So, we have actual actual scientists on board in our in our labs doing research.
