Cruise Line ProgramsSmall, purpose-built expedition ships for groups who want to see the polar regions properly.
Aurora Expeditions is an Australian expedition specialist that has been taking small groups to remote places for decades.
Its modern expedition ships, Greg Mortimer and Sylvia Earle, carry a small number of guests and were built for polar waters. The focus is on landings, Zodiac cruising, kayaking and time in the field with expert guides.
For an incentive group that wants a genuine adventure, Aurora delivers the real thing. If you are still weighing lines against each other, the at-sea overview lays out how we compare them.
Landings, Zodiac cruises and wildlife encounters are the heart of every voyage.
Kayaking and other activities on many voyages for attendees who want more.
Experienced expedition teams bring every landing to life.
With few guests, the group moves together and bonds quickly.

We will match the voyage to your dates and your group’s appetite for adventure.
Buy the Sea has been placing corporate groups at sea for twenty-six years, across every major line. We know how Aurora Expeditions works, and we know what to ask for and when to ask for it so that your program gets the ships, the spaces and the dates it needs. That is the part we handle.
Bring us a headcount, a budget and a range of dates. We will come back with real options with Aurora Expeditions — and across every other line, because we represent all of them and we are paid by the cruise line, never by you. There is no fee, no markup and no obligation. Here is why that matters.
Within reason, and often more of it than planners expect — signage, screens, key cards, venue naming and private events are all on the table. What is possible comes together at negotiation, and we will walk you through it.
Yes, subject to dates. The ships are small enough that full charters are realistic for mid-size groups.
Nothing. We are compensated by the cruise line, never by you. Twenty-six years of doing it this way is covered in why Buy the Sea.
