Pioneer Expeditions is passionate about providing international expeditions that challenge and enrich the experience of team members. We aim to achieve our expedition objectives in harmony with the environment and in a responsible way.

There's more to an adventure than the mainstream, mass marketed holidays that repeat the same itinerary countless times. Real adventures involve new, exciting and pioneering experiences.

Pioneer Expeditions offers real adventures achieving extraordinary expedition firsts.
Our original itineraries have never been run before and will not be run again. This allows very small groups (usually up to 8 people) to visit exotic and little visited destinations, minimising the negative impact on the local environment and maximising the positives.

Nature and culture are important to us and there are plenty of opportunities on every trip to explore the fascinating flora and fauna, unusual places and landmarks around us. And after comfortably 'roughing it' in the wilds, we always spend the last few days
relaxing in luxurious first class accommodation. We try to make life as comfortable as possible, even when camping out in the wilds.

Our expedition leaders are very experienced field professionals and, while they are highly knowledgeable about their expedition area, we know that no one knows a place better than the people who live there so we always employ local guides and experts to work with our Pioneer leaders. On each expedition we aim to be the first group to achieve an unusual objective or particular mission. From canoeing a river from source to sea, climbing a remote mountain, swimming a volcanic lake, trekking a glacier or traversing a tropical island; we are constantly researching new ideas and experiences.

You will not need any specialist skills to come on a pioneer expedition “though you may leave with some“ and age is no barrier.
