Bookings are now open for Aurora Expeditions’ 2027 season.

The company will offer 21 voyages across 22 countries, including destinations in the Mediterranean, the Adriatic, the Atlantic and African Coast, Northern Europe and Central America.

The journeys range from nine to 17 days aboard Aurora’s three purpose-built small ships, Greg Mortimer, Sylvia Earle and the forthcoming Douglas Mawson.

“Our new season goes beyond cruising—it’s storytelling at sea,” says Katie Malone, chief marketing officer for Aurora Expeditions. “Whether it’s a wine tasting in Bordeaux, tracing Viking sagas in Scandinavia, standing on the battlegrounds of Culloden or visiting Prince Albert’s private car garage in Monaco, every voyage connects travelers to history, culture and community in a way that only small ships can.”

Aurora Expeditions is offering nine brand-new itineraries in 2027, including:

  • A Mediterranean Feast (Valletta to Barcelona)
  • La Dolce Vita (Nice to Rome)
  • Treasures of the Adriatic (Valletta to Zagreb)
  • Costa Rica & Panama: Crossing the Canal (Panama City to San Jose)
  • Europe’s Engineering Icons (Amsterdam to Copenhagen)
  • Spirited Shores (Ireland to Portugal)
  • For Kin and Kingdom (England & Ireland)
