Voyage Itinerary
24 February
Setting sail from Cabo San Lucas
The sister towns of Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo, known collectively as Los Cabos, sit at the tip of Mexico's Baja California peninsula. The towns themselves are mostly given over to luxury hotels and boisterous nightlife, but the surrounding landscape is characterised by arid arroyos, bristly cacti and rocky coastal outcrops.
26 February
Mexico: Guerrero Negro
27 February - At sea
28 February
Svalbard and Jan Mayen: Magdalenefjord
The beautiful Magdalenefjord is one of the most scenic spots in the Svalbard archipelago, and was once home to an English whaling station. The landscape of jagged alpine peaks, glaciers and sheltered beaches is a popular spot for shore landings, with the chance to spot wildlife including polar bears, walruses and reindeer.
29 February
Mexico: Cabo Pulmo National Park
1 March to 2 March
Mexico: Loreto
Enjoy the beautiful beaches of Isla Coronado watching for frigate birds, blue footed boobies, dolphins and sea lions, and visit Loreto Town, the first colonial city on the Baja penisula.
2 March
United States: Coronado Island
3 March
Mexico: La Paz
La Paz feels more authentically Mexican than most of the other large cities in Baja California, though at the same time it’s a cosmopolitan and sophisticated place. It’s also a gateway to the fantastic marine life of the Sea of Cortez, famously described by Jacques Cousteau as ‘the world’s aquarium’.
4 March
Mexico: Los Islotes
The little islands known as Los Islotes, at the southern end of the Sea of Cortez, are home to a famously friendly group of sea lions. Here you can swim and snorkel with these playful creatures; the youngsters are particularly endearing.
5 March
Arriving in Cabo San Lucas
The sister towns of Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo sit at the tip of Mexico’s Baja California peninsula. The towns themselves are mostly given over to luxury hotels and boisterous nightlife, but the surrounding landscape is characterised by arid arroyos, bristly cacti and rocky coastal outcrops.

How can we help?
Our frequently asked questions
From expedition tips to travel protection, here are some of our most-asked questions.
visit our faqs
Can you help with pre and post-cruise arrangements?
Absolutely. Expedition cruises often start and end in remote destinations, and we're able to arrange everything from flights and transfers to hotels and tours. If you're keen to make the most of your time away with bespoke arrangements, we can help with all your travel needs to make sure your trip is exceptional. What's more, we are members of ABTA and we offer full ATOL protection, not to mention a 24-hour emergency contact, to give you complete peace of mind.
Will I save by booking with Mundy Adventures?
You'll save money and time by booking with us rather than directly with the cruise line, as well as enjoying more flexibility in your travel arrangements. We have access to preferential rates and exclusive offers, and we offer expert advice on how to get the best value.
How much time is spent ashore?
Itineraries are planned to deliver an unforgettable experience of the destination, so days are filled with landings ashore via the ship's fleet of Zodiacs (sturdy rubber boats) or exploration along the coastline. It will vary depending on itinerary and operators, so it's best to contact us to discuss but rest assured an expedition cruise is focused on the time you spend off the ship.
