General Overview

Fathom Expeditions believes that small expedition ships (50 to 100 passengers) represent the best and most comfortable way to enjoy the planet's adventurous and rarely visited wilderness regions. The benefits are widespread, encompassing everything from low impact travel to the floating boutique hotel concept and beyond. Below are a few reasons why we focus on small ships for our journeys:

• Controlled comfort and environment on the ship.

• Minimal disturbance of the pristine surroundings.

• No need to pack and unpack.

• The vessel repositions in the evening and each day brings new experiences.

• Excellent food, educational facilities, and sleeping accommodations.

• A fleet of sturdy Zodiac landing boats to visit remote, normally inaccessible places.

• First-ever exploration opportunities.

• Safety and security.

• A relaxed, carefree environment.

• Tremendous flexibility to take advantage of new and unforeseen circumstances.

Fathom Expeditions sub-charters expedition ships based on past experience and individual programming needs. This ensures that the amenities and performance associated with each vessel is appropriate and well suited. These nimble ships are perfect for small groups with specialized needs.
