Journey Latin America, the UK's leading specialist in travel to Latin America, is pleased to announce the launch of two new expedition cruises in Central America.

Expedition cruises have for some time been highly popular in Antarctica, Galápagos and the Amazon but over the past few years expeditionary cruising has become a much more accessible proposition in Mexico and Central America and are well suited to those who want something a bit more adventurous than a traditional cruise.

Mexico expedition cruise: Baja California and the Sea of Cortez is a 13-day holiday, including an 8-day expedition cruise taking in pure white beaches as well as a wide variety of wildlife including sea birds, sea lions and whales. Throughout the season there are departures with specialists in biology, photography, ornithology and wellness.

This holiday starts from £4,375pp and includes accommodation on a mid-range expeditionary cruise ship, hotel accommodation, transfers, domestic flights, excursions and most meals.

Expedition cruise: Panama, the Canal and Costa Rica is a 16-day expedition-style cruise exploring the natural landscapes, wildlife and indigenous cultures of the captivating Caribbean and Pacific coasts of tropical Panama and Costa Rica. This holiday starts from £6,978pp and includes accommodation on board a comfortable mid-range expeditionary cruise ship and a mid-range hotel in Panama City, one land transfer, excursions and most meals.

These holiday itineraries form part of a comprehensive collection of expedition cruise holidays currently on offer by Journey Latin America.
