Get Up Close & Personal

Our small group size allows for easy maneuvering, with more opportunities to experience the local culture at every destination. Whether sharing a meal around a family's table, meeting children at nearby schools, or observing artisans at work in local markets, we make sure you can jump right in!

Boutique Accommodations

Our accommodations, often at distinctive, one-of-a-kind lodgings, are chosen to enhance your immersion experience. Because we're traveling in a small group, we can bypass typical tourist hotels. Instead, we'll opt for high-quality, well-located lodgings at the best value available. Enjoy deluxe campsite accommodations in the Sahara desert, marvel at the old-world charm of castles in the Irish countryside and glimpse the Big Five in safari lodge camps. Our regional staff has hand-picked accommodations whose atmosphere and decor reflect the rich traditions of your destination.
