About this listen
#4 Imagine standing on the deck of a small expedition ship as icebergs drift past… and realising this feels nothing like a traditional ocean cruise. Why? Because expedition ships are built for exploration, not entertainment.
In this episode of The Expedition Cruise Podcast, host Rona Wheeldon breaks down what truly sets these expedition vessels apart - from their small size and ice‑strengthened hulls to onboard science labs and expert expedition teams.
You’ll get an introduction to:
- What makes expedition ships purpose‑built for remote places
- How features like Zodiacs, mud rooms and science centres shape your experience
- Why the ship is a basecamp, not the holiday itself
- The role of the expedition team in bringing every destination to life
This episode is perfect if you’re curious about expedition cruising or want to understand why it feels so different from anything else at sea.
