"This was the first organized tour my husband and I have ever joined, so we were not sure what to expect , but it turned out to be the best vacation we've ever had. The scenery and food were amazing. We stayed in beautiful hotels. Most of the riding was on paved bike paths so we hardly ever had to deal with car traffic. Our leaders, Andrea and Martin, were funny, informative , and so helpful. We are already planning to go back to Italy with VBT this summer."

"Egypt is the most amazing destination. it was a trip of a lifetime. Trafalgar made sure our tour saw all the most important places, and with the most knowledgeable Egyptologist who kept us safe, engaged, all while having alot of fun! I was concerned before I left home, but quickly my fears were laid to rest. We were met by Mo at the airport, who seamlessly got us to our destination. The hotel, cruise, food, stateroom, staff and entertainment were fantastic. And what a value! I already miss Hany Attia, Lionel Richie in the M/S miriam souvenir shop, and Mo, as well as our new Habibi from the tour. What a blast. I dont think i could ever top this vacation Thank you again. It was a trip of a lifetime."

Cultural Tour Selection Trips

Cultural tours are all about learning and gaining a deeper understanding. Be respectful and open minded.
Don’t be afraid to ask questions! Your tour will only be enhanced by the more you engage with locals and your guides.
Figure out what type of cultural experience you’re looking for. Are you interested in visiting a small, remote village for an intense, sometimes uncomfortable look at another way of life? Or are you interested in a more relaxed cultural experience, like a food tour in Italy?
