Adventure & Nature Travel
But the best way to experience these special places isn’t to just sit back and “enjoy the view”—it’s to embrace the great outdoors and do. From cycling tours to Jeep safaris, rainforest journeys to desert treks, we’ll design an immersive, thoroughly thrilling itinerary that gets your body moving and brings you face to face with rare landscapes and the creatures who call them home.
Embrace your Wild Side
There are some corners of the world that are as pretty as a picture straight out of National Geographic.
Safe, vetted, and always exhilarating, our adventurous experiences are truly “once in a lifetime.”
Soar over the Grand Canyon on a “flightseeing” tour via helicopter, then come back down to earth with a float down the snaking Colorado River. Fly through the air on a zipline that swings you through the jungle tree tops in Costa Rica, then catch a wave during a surf lesson on the golden coastline. Spy spotted cats and striped zebras while on safari in South Africa, then visit an elephant sanctuary to feed the gentle giants yourself and contribute to conservation efforts.
Cultural Journeys
Whether your curiosity takes you to WWII battlefields or baroque cathedrals, magnificent metropolises or ancient desert outposts, our trusted tour outfitters will lead you right to it all with ease.
Welcome to Discovery
Art, architecture, history, dance, language—embrace the vibrancy of your destination with authentic cultural immersion centered around your own passions.
Embrace cultural excursions that take you behind closed doors and beyond what you find in the guide books.
In Rome, enjoy a soaring private operetta performed during a feast of Italian delicacies—and all the chianti you can drink. In Morocco, visit traditional Berber villages tucked into the verdant valleys of the Atlas Mountains, where you’ll be welcomed with a long pour of mint tea.
In Sante Fe, check into a charming and historic pueblo-style hotel that reflects the dusty desert colors of the American Southwest—it’s the perfect homebase for exploring the local handicrafts market and attending a “pow wow” experience at an American Indian reservation, where the kaleidoscopic costumes and dances passed down through the generations swirl together in the sacred performance.
Culinary Explorations
Let your Taste Buds Lead the Way
Tantalize your taste buds, and get an authentic feel for your destination’s culture, with tailored culinary journeys.
We’re passionate about pairing you with local culinary experts—like chefs, vintners, and artisan food producers—who can bring to life their country’s food traditions in hands-on ways.
Saunter among an olive grove in the rugged mountains of Crete and try piquant varieties offered up by an olive oil “sommelier,” enjoy a slice of Cuba without getting out your passport on a “Cuban sandwich crawl” through Miami’s boisterous Little Havana neighborhood, tour and taste your way through a cocoa plantation in Costa Rica to discover how the delicacy goes from bean to bar, or load up on picnic essentials and the freshest California produce at Oxbow Public Market before you cycle your way through the vineyards of Napa Valley on a guided bike tour, stopping for private tastings and a picnic among the vines.
There’s no end to delicious discovery with our custom culinary journeys.
