knowledge: arriving in a remote bay with a small group, speaking with scientists and experienced guides, staying in a private lodge with only a few rooms, or travelling on a route that only a handful of ships can undertake. Clients receive personal support from the first conversation to the return home, with inventia Journeys arranging their flights, hotels, and private extensions upon request. In the polar regions, inventia Journeys has observed responsible visitor management to be receiving significant attention. The company stresses the importance of clearly defined wildlife distances, carefully organised landings, and appropriate passenger numbers to help preserve sensitive habits while enabling meaningful encounters. For its dedication to ensuring that each guest understands these measures as part of travelling respectfully in such exceptional environments, inventia Journeys has earned the Excellence Award in Wildlife and Conservation-Focused Travel 2026. Since its inception, inventia Journeys has built a remarkable reputation for planning extraordinary, content-rich trips away from the typical tourist crowds. Pairing this stellar service with a deep commitment to environmental responsibility, inclusivity, and genuine attention to detail, the company has created lifetime memories for countless clients around the world. For this reason, we at EU Business News are delighted to recognise inventia Journeys as the Best Small Ship Expedition and Cruise Specialist 2026. Now looking to the future, inventia Journeys intends to continue developing its portfolio around carefully selected journeys and strong expert content. In September 2027, the team will offer a German-speaking expedition to East Greenland aboard the 114-passenger Sea Spirit, with Reinhold Messner joining as a special guest. The route leads into Scoresby Sund at the beginning of autumn, when the tundra changes colour and the longer nights bring guests the first opportunities to see the Northern Lights. In 2028, inventia Journeys’ programme will include a complete circumnavigation of Antarctica aboard Le Commandant Charcot. Lasting more than two months, this voyage connects the Weddell Sea, Ross Sea, East Antarctica, and the Antarctic Peninsula. It embodies every quality that defines inventia Journeys’ future direction: smaller passenger numbers, substantial expertise, and the time to understand a destination in its full dimension. Reflecting on the last year, Stephanie shared, “2026 is a significant year for inventia Journeys. EU Business News named us Best Small Ship Expedition and Cruise Ship Specialist 2026 and honoured us with the 2026 Excellence Award in Wildlife and Conservation-Focused Travel. These distinctions follow Best Small Cruise Ship and Expedition Specialists 2025 and Best Adventure Travel Agency Germany 2024. Together, they reflect our longstanding focus on small ships, informed travel, and respectful wildlife experiences.” news Subscribe Here!
