This strategic shift has propelled Albatros Expeditions into being a truly global company.”
As Lagerweij takes the helm once again, he expressed his enthusiasm for working with the exceptional team at Albatros Expeditions. “I am thrilled to collaborate with our outstanding professionals as we embark on the next phase of the company’s journey. Together, we will continue to deliver exceptional expeditions and shape the future of sustainable travel to the most remote parts of the world.”
