Partners

The New Zealand travel agency Heritage Expeditions is a regular partner for our small-scale expedition cruises. Heritage Expeditions has been specializing in guided boat tours to various isolated regions of our planet for 30 years, where biodiversity is nothing short of amazing. Their experienced, English-speaking crew provides top guidance. An expedition with Heritage usually means sailing with the Spirit of Enderby, one of the world’s most famous boats for nature-oriented (Ant)arctic trips. By choosing Heritage, STARLING only selects the very best routes and ensures a transparent and pleasant travel experience from start to finish. Heritage and STARLING: a top team!

Mr. Jan. Gear develops photographic material of rock-solid quality. Everything is wearable, but nothing is not repairable! That’s their vision. Their photo bags, floating photo huts, travel bags, … and all other products are developed from practical experience. Logic is paramount and they aim for maximum efficiency with minimal weight without sacrificing quality.

Nikon is our reliable partner for photography equipment. Both their compact cameras and their system cameras and lenses are always very qualitative and innovative. Their range is diverse and offers something for everyone. The quality of the material and the customer service is top-notch.
