In this episode of The Travel Podcast, host Hayley Sparkes is joined by Pierre Thomas from Silversea Expeditions to reveal a completely different kind of travel experience — one that takes you deep into the world’s last great wildernesses, in surprising comfort.

From penguin colonies in Antarctica to remote islands in the Pacific, expedition cruises reach places you can’t get to any other way — with no ports, no crowds, and no compromise on luxury.

Join us as Pierre shares:

  • The unexpected way to explore remote places like Antarctica, the Galápagos, and the Arctic
  • The jaw-dropping destinations you’ve probably never heard of — but will want to see
  • Why expedition cruising is for everyone (even people in their 90s!)
  • How your days unfold with expert guides, wildlife encounters, and five-star service
  • What makes Silversea’s expeditions feel more like a travelling university (in a very good way)

Whether you're an adventure-seeker, wildlife lover or just curious about a more meaningful way to travel, this episode opens the door to a world few get to see
