Expedition Cruise & Europe Travel Specialist

Amanda King Expedition Cruise Specialist

Planning a truly unforgettable journey should feel inspiring and exciting, not overwhelming. As a Luxury Travel Advisor specializing in expedition cruising, safaris, and European travel, I create highly personalized journeys that combine adventure, comfort, and meaningful connection to the world’s most extraordinary destinations.

My expertise spans expedition cruising and safari travel, from exploring the remote polar regions of Antarctica and above the Arctic Circle, to witnessing the abundant wildlife of Alaska, venturing on safari through Africa’s iconic landscapes, and discovering the extraordinary biodiversity of the Galápagos Islands. Each journey is immersive by design, led by seasoned naturalists, guides, and expedition teams who ensure that every moment is educational, inspiring, and unforgettable. These experiences are crafted for travelers who want more than a vacation — they want perspective, discovery, and a deeper understanding of the natural world.

With a degree in Zoology and a lifelong passion for wildlife, I bring a scientific and ethical lens to every itinerary I design. For every expedition cruise or safari booked through me, a donation is made to a wildlife foundation, supporting conservation efforts in the regions my clients explore. This allows travelers to experience the natural world responsibly while contributing directly to the protection of wildlife and their habitats.

I partner with some of the most trusted names in expedition cruising and safaris, including National Geographic–Lindblad Expeditions, HX Expeditions, Scenic, Quark Expeditions, Silversea Expeditions, Ponant, Seabourn, Atlas Voyages, African Travel Inc., Abercrombie & Kent, and Kensington. I hold certifications with each, ensuring that my clients are matched with the experiences and itineraries that perfectly align with their interests, pace, and style. I often have groups traveling with Quark and National Geographic Lindblad, giving my clients access to exclusive group pricing, added amenities, and onboard perks that cannot be found elsewhere, making these journeys even more valuable and rewarding.

Alongside expedition cruising and safari travel, I specialize in creating custom European itineraries, with a particular love for Ireland, Iceland, and Scotland. My focus is on immersive, authentic experiences that allow travelers to engage deeply with the culture, history, cuisine, and landscapes of Europe — from charming countryside villages and historic castles to scenic coastlines and boutique cities discovered by train or small-ship river cruises. These itineraries are designed for travelers who want to move beyond the typical tourist paths and truly connect with the destinations they are visiting.

I manage every detail of the journey, including flights, transfers, accommodations, private guides, curated excursions, and special celebrations, so my clients can fully immerse themselves in the experience. Whether it’s planning a safari through Kenya or South Africa, an expedition cruise to Antarctica, a small-ship voyage in the Galápagos, or a customized European itinerary, I ensure that each trip is seamless, personalized, and transformative. Travelers who work with me appreciate my meticulous attention to detail, expertise, and ability to transform ambitious travel dreams into journeys that are comfortable, enriching, and unforgettable.

My approach combines adventure, elegance, and purpose, creating experiences that leave a lasting impact on both my clients and the regions they explore. Whether you are seeking the thrill of wildlife encounters, the serenity of Europe’s countryside, or the wonder of the polar regions, I design journeys that inspire curiosity, connection, and a profound appreciation for the natural and cultural wonders of the world.
