Once theonly way to travel between continents, the popularity of journeying bysea waned with the advent of air travel. However, with airports nowcrowded to capacity and flying becoming tedious, there is once again adesire to take to the water. For those not attracted by the usual hedonistic format of the large cruiseliners, there are fortunately a number of alternatives which retain thebest elements of travel by sea and which focus purely on the naturalhistory attractions of each area visited. Naturetrek's wildlife cruises allowour clients to savour these ultimate natural history experiences in fivecontinents in the company of expert naturalists.
