Wild Scotland delivered at every turn on this remarkable expedition aboard the Sea Spirit, chartered by Wild Earth Travel.

From remote island landings at St Kilda and Fair Isle to cruising beneath the towering cliffs of Noss, the voyage revealed a side of Scotland few ever get to see. Across 17 islands and island groups, guests experienced raw landscapes, rich history, thriving wildlife and unforgettable close encounters with nature.

Highlights included thousands of puffins on the Isle of May, white-tailed eagles soaring above the Shiant Islands, rare sightings of orca and humpback whales in Shetland waters, and even the discovery of a newly identified Risso’s dolphin individual. Along the way, guests also connected with remote communities and supported vital conservation efforts across Scotland.

A true expedition in every sense — remote, rewarding, and full of moments that stay with you long after you return.

The Galápagos is one of those places that feels almost untouched by the modern world. Days are spent snorkelling with sea lions, watching giant tortoises roam freely, spotting blue-footed bo***es just metres away and exploring volcanic islands by Zodiac and on foot — all while travelling with a small group onboard an intimate expedition vessel. It’s immersive, active and incredibly personal in a way larger ships simply can’t replicate.

Here’s what some of our past travellers have said after returning home:

“By the end of the week, we felt like one big family.”
“Seeing the Galápagos by small ship is the best way to experience the islands.”
“It reshaped my connection to the natural world.”
“We loved every minute — the wildlife, the people, the scenery.”
“Photos don’t do justice to it.”

If the Galápagos has been on your bucket list, now is the time to start planning. Talk to the team at Wild Earth Travel to find the right small ship voyage for you ➡ [email protected]

India by land and river 🌏
From the mighty Brahmaputra, to the sacred Ganges and the tranquil Kerala backwaters, we offer a range of immersive river cruising experiences across India—but the journey doesn’t have to end there.

Our carefully curated land extensions let you go deeper into the heart of this extraordinary country. Explore India’s iconic Golden Triangle, including Delhi, Agra and the breathtaking Taj Mahal, one of the world’s most enduring symbols of love. Discover spiritual Varanasi, where ancient rituals unfold along the ghats of the Ganges, or immerse yourself in Kolkata, India’s cultural capital, rich with colonial architecture, literary heritage and vibrant street life.

For something truly special, extend your journey into the serene Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan, or explore the lush, lesser-travelled landscapes of Guwahati and Northeast India, where nature, culture and tradition remain beautifully untouched.

There are so many ways to experience India—on water and on land. Simply contact the team at Wild Earth Travel to find out more ➡ [email protected]

Want to see Greece from another perspective?
Consider travelling outside the busy summer months aboard a small ship.
Low season cruising reveals a quieter, more authentic side of the Greek Islands — one where whitewashed villages are less crowded, local tavernas have space to linger over long lunches, and ancient sites can be explored without the peak season rush. Spring and autumn also bring milder temperatures, ideal for walking through charming island towns, hiking coastal trails and soaking up the atmosphere at a slower pace.
Aboard a small ship, you can also access smaller ports and lesser-visited islands that larger ships often bypass, allowing for a more intimate and immersive experience of Greece. Think peaceful harbours, golden late-afternoon light over the Aegean, and meaningful connections with local culture, cuisine and traditions along the way.
Another benefit to travelling low season is the price, which is generally less than the peak season fares.
