Heritage Expeditions
Subantarctic Islands
Expeditions to these Islands enable participants to see, experience and photograph wildlife that is found nowhere else in the world. There are also opportunities on these expeditions to enjoy wild and unique land and seascapes. The governments of Australia and New Zealand restrict the numbers of people visiting the Islands to prevent damage and lessen the risk of accidental introduction of alien species. This policy also ensures a unique visitor experience.
Heritage Expeditions owns sufficient landing permits to allow all our passengers ashore on every expedition we offer during the austral summer. Depending on your interest, time and budget we operate "Forgotten Islands of the South Pacific", "Galapagos of the Southern Ocean" and "Birding Down Under" expeditions with a focus on the unique natural history. Every expedition aims at maximizing the opportunities for all participants, regardless of their interest with quality time ashore with guides who know the islands and the wildlife. We also include these Islands on our Antarctic Expeditions.
