After two years where passenger ships have largely been kept in port, it looks like 2022 will be the year cruises return. And to celebrate this, sailing companies at all levels are rolling out all sorts of exciting new routes.
If you’re considering a cruise this year and want a different experience, consider going on an expedition. Simply put, expedition ships are specially designed to explore some of the most remote destinations on earth, ranging from the Arctic and Antarctica to the Galapagos and tiny islands of the Pacific.
While large-scale cruise ships are characterized by hundreds (or even thousands) of rooms and a rigid route of sailing from one port city to another, expedition ships are more intimate and have looser itineraries. . Their small size allows them to stop in places that can’t accommodate huge cruise ships, and the flexible itineraries mean no two trips are the same. That might mean entering a secluded cove to swim with curious seals, hiking to a penguin rookery, zipping between icebergs on a dinghy, or spending time in small communities that don’t often see visitors. , not to mention the hordes of tourists who usually arrive with larger cruises.
Read on for our list of some of the newest and most exciting expedition routes on offer for 2022.
