National Geographic has long been revered for its commitment to exploring the many marvels of the world. Luckily, the trusted magazine has announced its 2024 travel expeditions offerings so you can get in on the adventure too.

Enjoy the view and be prepared to be immersed in the rich history of their 2024 destinations. Nat Geo’s 2024 travel season is dominated by European cruises led by Nat Geo storytellers with specialties in writing, history, photography, geography, and more. 

The 2023 offerings include

  • Springtime River Cruise in Holland and Belgium: Take in the art, flora, and architecture on this cruise through Belgium and the Netherlands. It also includes stops at the famous windmills, a flower show at a historic Belgian castle, and the world’s largest collection of Vincent van Gogh paintings.

  • Rhine River Cruise: Basel to Amsterdam: This expedition is perfect for those who love bike rides, walking excursions, and tasting tours. Float down the Rhine and experience the beauty of the Netherlands, Germany, France, and Switzerland with the help of a photography expert, who provides a special on-deck photo workshop to help you capture the experience. 

  • Danube Christmas Markets River Cruise: Experience the Christmas magic while traveling between Budapest and Nuremberg. You’ll even get to stop at holiday marketplaces in Vienna and Salzburg and get a behind-the-scenes look at a meteorite exhibit created by Nat Geo Explorer Ludovic Ferriere. 

Each expedition includes regionally inspired meals, complimentary wines at lunch and dinner, wellness facilities, and Wi-Fi.

If not by sea, then by land

If the idea of going on a river cruise makes you seasick, Nat Geo is also still offering up their Signature Land Trips all over the world. Some destinations include:

  • Inside Japan

  • Costa Rica: Wildlife and Conservation

  • Borneo Wildlife Adventure

  • Palau: Snorkeling and Kayaking the Pristine Seas

  • Alaska: Denali to Kenai Fjords Expedition

Private offerings

If you’re looking for a truly one-of-a-kind adventure, go for one of their 27 Private Expeditions, including Belize and Tikal, Chile and Easter Island, Croatia, Madagascar, and many more. 

Mark your calendar
The tickets are ever popular, so it makes sense why they are announcing and selling them a year in advance. Tickets go on sale to the general public on January 12th, 2023. If you book early (by April 7th, 2023) you can save up to $500 on land departures and $750 on river cruises.
