Go for you

Immersive guided tours across the globe

Discover the world—and a new side of you

Travel has a way of revealing different versions of yourself. Like when you follow your love of art to Florence and discover you’re the makes-funny-faces-in-photos type. Or when you go solo and learn you’re the instantly-friends-with-everyone type. Whatever experience you crave, whatever side of yourself you want to meet, we make it easy. All you have to do? Show up on tour (you can shop best-sellers below), enjoy the magic of travel, and embrace who you become along the way. Now’s your time. Go for you.

Masterfully crafted trips

We have more than 60 years of experience planning culturally immersive, experiential itineraries in 80-plus countries, and we tailor them to a variety of interests, seasons, and travel styles. Want to explore Italy’s cuisine alongside fellow foodies, enjoy the camaraderie of an all-women group in the U.K., set out on safari with other solo travelers, or enjoy a quieter side of Europe outside summer? You can do it all (and more) with us on itineraries we designed to showcase and celebrate not just the places you visit, but you and your tour mates, too.

Expert Tour Directors

From touchdown to takeoff, you’ll be accompanied by your dedicated, does-it-all Tour Director. (We like to think of these worldly, seasoned pros as our secret sauce.) Your Tour Director will oversee your trip’s logistics, share historical and cultural insights into each place you visit, and help demystify local currencies, languages, and customs. From knowing where to get the best gelato in Rome to delivering dramatic retellings of historic battles on the Brittany Coast, your Tour Director will be your go-to expert. (And probably, by the time tour ends, a new friend.)

Unforgettable experiences

When you’re on tour with us, you won’t just learn about local life. You’ll live it in ways that light you up most. We’ll take you inside workshops, kitchens, homes, and other exclusive spaces where locals bring their trades and time-honored traditions to life—and where you can, too. Whether you want to make pasta under the tutelage of an Italian chef, learn proper pineapple-picking techniques from a farmer in Costa Rica, or try your hand at printmaking in Japan, we’re here to make those experiences, and so many others, happen.
