The Impala Adventure Travel agent was one of 20 advisors invited on the two-day fam trip onboard the National Geographic Endurance in Edinburgh.
Sowden joined agents from the likes of Travel Counsellors and Mundy Cruises to hear from Danielle Bates, head of UK sales for Lindblad Expeditions, and ECN chief executive Akvile Marozaite. They later had a hosted tour of the polar vessel, a three-course dinner at the Malmaison Edinburgh and took part in a photography workshop.
Co-hosted by the Expedition Cruise Network (ECN), the immersive event aimed to educate agents on the US-headquartered brand and provide first-hand experience of its product offering.
