National Geographic - Lindblad Expeditions
In 1979, Lars Eric's son Sven Lindblad founded Special Expeditions as a division of Lindblad Travel, enabling the company to further its mission of offering innovative and educational travel expeditions that were primarily marine focused, and thus Lindblad Expeditions was born. In 2004 a collaboration with National Geographic was established, enhancing the expedition experience through both companies' shared values.
