This past November National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions completed the first-ever Antarctica Direct: Fly the Drake Passage expedition, which offers a more time-efficient way to explore the world’s last great wilderness. Founder Sven Lindblad was delighted to be aboard the inaugural voyage, marking another unique way to explore the region after his father, Lars-Eric Lindblad, pioneered modern Antarctic exploration nearly 60 years ago.
In this Expedition Spotlight, Sven shares more about this historic milestone and why experience matters when it comes to navigating the wind, waters and landscapes of the legendary White Continent.
