View Profile

For two awe-inspiring decades, Zegrahm Expeditions has taken inquisitive explorers to the ends of the Earth—on small-ship expeditions and land adventures outside the realm of traditional travel. Here is what makes Zegrahm unique:

We Think Small – on a Grand Scale. We limit the number of adventurers on each expedition to allow guests personal contact with their leaders and naturalist experts. For our small-ship cruises, we charter the best expedition ships, icebreakers, and yachts—ranging from 40- to 100-guest capacity. Onboard amenities include all-outside suites, fine dining, and spacious lounges/lecture rooms.

We Visit All Seven Continents. Our expeditions reach from Pole to Pole. Trips operate year-round; each one scheduled for the optimal time to visit during the year.

Our Leaders and Lecturers are World-Class. Zegrahm trips are led by the best and the brightest in their respective fields. Scientists, naturalists, and historians bring an educational component to the adventure through lectures, recaps, and guided excursions. Skilled expedition leaders and cruise directors expertly handle logistics and passenger service.

We Explore Remote, Exotic Locales. Our itineraries are all custom-designed and far removed from standard routes. We explore distant islands, atolls, rivers, and fjords to find unusual wildlife; visit remote villages to meet indigenous cultures; and snorkel and scuba dive in untouched undersea kingdoms.

Our Customer Service is Outstanding. (It truly is; just ask our thousands of discriminating clients!) A dedicated expedition advisor and operations team oversee each departure, and an experienced air department handles flight arrangements upon your request.

Zegrahm Trips are an Excellent Value. Each expedition is a singular event, individually produced from start to finish. Accommodations and transportation are always the best available in each region, and we offer a full range of daily activities. Your trip price includes deluxe accommodations, excursions, all meals, and gratuities.

Private Travel

Our Private Travel department offers individuals, families, and groups of friends the same horizon-broadening adventures and life-changing experiences as our scheduled expeditions—but on a more flexible, intimate, and personalized scale. We know you may want to explore the world independently—at your own pace, on your own schedule, and with very specific activities in mind. That is what our Private Travel team is here to help you do.

Cancellation policy

Cancellation and Refund Policy: Notification of cancellation must be received in writing by ZE. At the time we receive your written cancellation, the following penalties will apply:

  • 180 days or more prior to departure: $750 per person
  • 120 through 179 days prior to departure: 25% of expedition fare
  • 1 through 119 days prior to departure: 100% of expedition fare

 Some air fare may be nonrefundable. Once an expedition has departed, there will be no refunds from ZE for any unused portions of the trip. The above policy also applies to all extensions and independent travel arrangements made in conjunction with this program.

Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance alongside your travel package to safeguard against unforeseen circumstances such as medical expenses, trip cancellations, and other contingencies. It offers you peace of mind and ensures you are prepared for unexpected events that may occur before or during your journey
Visa requirements
Visa requirements vary depending on your country of origin and your country of destination. It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the relevant requirements. For a handy tool that can help you quickly find the requirements, please visit this link .

Additional Information

Reservations:

25% of the expedition fare will reserve a place for you on this ZE program. The balance of the expedition fare is due 120 days prior to departure. Air fare is due at time of issuance. All prices are quoted in U.S. dollars and must be paid in U.S. dollars.

Trip Cancellation and Interruption Insurance:

We strongly advise that all travelers purchase trip cancellation and interruption insurance as coverage against a covered unforeseen emergency that may force you to cancel or leave an expedition while it is in progress. ZE will not be held responsible for delays due to force majeure. Any additional costs accrued will be the responsibility of the traveler. Due to the remoteness of where we travel, an adequate medical facility could be 72 hours away or more and emergency evacuation and adequate medical treatment may be delayed or unavailable in certain areas.
