The New Zealand-based, family-owned expedition travel company Heritage Expeditions/fleet has launched its Authentic Small Ship Expedition Cruising 2025-2026 brochure, featuring 2 new voyages to Japan and an industry-first itinerary to Polillo Island (Philippines), alongside its renowned adventure cruises.
According to Aaron Russ (the company's Commercial Director and Expedition Leader) is eager to continue sharing the world's lesser-known destinations with travelers while supporting remote communities and conservation efforts in the wild areas they explore.
New additions to the brochure include the Eternally Sacred Japan and Discover the Islands of Japan voyages, as well as the unique Asian Island Odyssey voyage, which will include a stop at Polillo Island.
The brochure also highlights Heritage Expeditions’ extensive offerings, such as voyages along Australia’s Kimberley Coast, rarely accessed destinations in New Zealand, and wildlife-rich areas in the Subantarctic Islands - NZ's Bounty Islands, the Antipodes, the Snares, the Auckland Islands, and Campbell Island NZ and Tasmania's Macquarie Island.
Additionally, the 140-passenger ship Heritage Adventurer will navigate the Ross Sea, providing access to the heart of Antarctica.
For more intimate experiences, the 2004-built, 18-passenger yacht Heritage Explorer will explore the ice-carved fjords of Fiordland NP, the rugged wilderness of Stewart and Ulva Islands, and the stunning landscapes of Marlborough Sounds and Abel Tasman NP.
