National Geographic Expeditions has added eight new trips to their National Geographic Journeys collection as part of the 5th year of their partnership with G Adventures. These trips provide an in-depth look at the history, culture, and natural heritage of their destinations.
What They Are Saying:
- Heather Heverling, Senior Vice President of Product Management, National Geographic Expeditions: We are thrilled to announce the new program of trips for 2020. These itineraries will allow travelers to learn, experience, see and taste more than ever before.
- Ben Perlo, G Adventures’ Managing Director for the U.S. and Latin America: The new trips are a direct response to the feedback travelers have been giving us about the places they most want to explore next. From Ireland to Mexico, Greece to Bangkok, the new Journeys will bring people to some of the most in-demand travel destinations on Earth, but in a way that is more authentic, immersive and sustainable than the typical vacation. It’s adventure for the person who wants to learn more, do more, and share more of themselves with the world.”
