About Mike Horn

Mike Horn is a world-renowned adventurer and explorer with a wealth of experience in expeditions to some of the world’s most remote and challenging environments.

Among other feats, he has skied across the Arctic and Antarctic, swam down the Amazon River, and sailed solo around the world.

Through these experiences, he has developed a deep respect and admiration for the natural world, and often speaks about the importance of preserving its
beauty and diversity.

The time has come for Mike Horn to lead Explora Journeys guests on an expedition of their own.
