Aurora Expeditions has expanded its voyages to include children aged six and older, allowing more families to travel together onboard the company's purpose-built expedition ships to remote destinations.
Young guests on Aurora voyages have opportunities to observe wildlife in natural habitats, explore coastlines by Zodiac, engage with local communities and learn from members of the company's expedition team.
"Some of life's most meaningful lessons are learned when we step outside the classroom and experience the world for ourselves," said Katie Malone, chief marketing officer at Aurora Expeditions. "A child may read about a whale, a glacier or a remote community in a textbook, but seeing and experiencing these places can create a much deeper sense of curiosity, understanding and responsibility. By bringing generations together through shared exploration, we hope to create lifelong family memories while inspiring young travelers to care for the extraordinary places, wildlife and cultures they encounter."
According to the company, its small ships are intended to provide an environment for families to explore together, supported by expedition teams who lead shore excursions, wildlife encounters and onboard educational programming.
Aurora Expeditions is also offering fare reductions for younger travelers. Children aged six to 15 are eligible for savings of up to 50% off the best available fare.
