My husband and I have done two National Geographic Linblad Expeditions — one to Baja to see the grey whales, and one around Malta and Sicily on a tall sailing ship. Both were excellent!! I loved everything about both trips — the itineraries, the expedition leaders and staff, the other staff on each vessel — everything. I am looking forward to my next NatGeo trip to the Galapagos. I haven’t take a Road Scholar trip so I don’t have a basis to compare, but I would certainly recommend National Geographic!

The Road Scholar price does seem better, especially with the "free airfare from select cities." We live in Atlanta RamblingRose Sunday #6
