United by a shared commitment to sustainable travel and environmental stewardship, we believe in the power of exploration to educate, inspire, and protect our planet. As Certified B Corporation™ and proudly Carbon Neutral, Aurora’s core mission is to tread lightly while creating transformative experiences in the world’s most remote and extraordinary places, from Antarctica to the Arctic and beyond.
Founded on the principles of adventure and discovery, our small-ship voyages feature immersive activities, extended time off the ship, and enriching programs led by expert guides. Our purpose-built expedition vessels, the Greg Mortimer and Sylvia Earle, are designed for responsible global exploration, with our newest ship, the Douglas Mawson, set to join the fleet in December 2025.
Conservancy Travels offers exclusive rates and perks on all Aurora Expeditions journeys - contact Conservancy Travel to learn more and start planning your private group expedition.
Enjoy savings of up to 25% on select Antarctica, Arctic & Beyond voyages, OR travel solo with no single supplement on dedicated cabins across our 2025–26 Antarctica and 2026 Arctic seasons.
Since the start, we have embraced a responsibility to inspire, educate and advocate for wild places across the globe, in order to inspire a global community of ambassadors for the planet. Aurora was one of the first operators to become members of both IAATO and AECO, and we are honoured to be a Certified B Corporation™. Not only do we care about reducing our footprint environmentally, we are taking real actions for the care of the planet.
