Get up close with nature — brown bears, flying foxes, pink dolphins and giant tortoises — with The Nature Conservancy and Abercrombie & Kent!

The Conservancy and A&K are partnering to bring you one-of-a-kind journeys some of the greatest places on Earth — places the Conservancy works in and will be your host:

  • Brazil
    In this country celebrated the world over for diverse wildlife and passionate people, you'll explore Brazil's Atlantic Forest (which is as biodiverse as the Amazon) and travel through the Pantanal — the world's largest wetlands, with 650 bird species, giant river otters, jaguars and more.
  • Papua New Guinea
    In this favorite country of intrepid travelers, you'll visit local villages, explore high-mountain jungles full of roaring waterfalls and snorkel or scuba dive in one of the world's premier coral reef systems.
  • Ecuador and the Galapagos
    Sail on a 110-foot yacht around the Galapagos Islands — known since Charles Darwin as one of the world's most unique and famous natural wonders. Then visit the Andean cloud forest, Ecuador's Condor Bioreserve and a 17th century hacienda!
  • Peru
    In this fascinatingly diverse country, you begin with a Conservancy-guided luxury journey down the Amazon. Next, visit the breathtaking ruins of Machu Picchu, icon of the Incas and their lost civilization.
  • Alaska
    Fly over and kayak around enormous glaciers, go bear and porpoise watching, and visit the largest known cave in this amazing state — and then dine in award-winning restaurants!

Seeing Nature's Wonders with a Conservationist's Eye

Each trip brings you the signature Abercrombie & Kent experience — a unique adventure highlighted by luxury and authenticity — in some of the biologically richest and most beautiful places in the world.

You'll see these places through the expert eyes of the Conservancy staff. They will help you appreciate and understand the subtle, profound complexities of these unique ecosystems and their relationships with local communities. 

And your encounters — a sunset over crystalline water, a shared glance with a capybara, or a picnic with the cacophony of blue-eyed cockatoos in the background — might even change the way you look at the world.

You'll be disappointed to leave. But you'll know that these places will remain unspoiled for future generations to enjoy because of the innovative efforts of the Conservancy and its partners.
