World Journeys

Cruise Journeys - See some of the world’s most interesting destinations from another vantage point.  Choose from  luxury ocean liners cruising the Mediterranean, charming river cruisers in the Mekong Delta, small ships in the Galapagos Islands, Amazon or Patagonia, or even river barging through Europe.

Hosted Journeys - Group travel offers a chance to share the trip of a lifetime. Travel is about much more than just ticking off the sights on the well-trodden tourist trail.  It’s about experiencing new cultures, savouring local cuisine, hearing new melodies and meeting fascinating people.  Travelling to some of the world’s most exciting, challenging and exotic countries is all the more achievable in a small group of like-minded people .  People love the conviviality of group travel; there’s company if desired, but also time to explore alone.  Every person brings something to the mix.  With a maximum group size of 18, all tours are guaranteed to depart, so travellers can book with confidence.

Rail Journeys - There’s something refreshingly traditional about travelling by train, particularly if you’re travelling over a long, multi-night route. And the rail journey can be a destination in itself! Dining cars with full-service meals, uniformed wait staff – there’s so much to love about travelling by train. Take a journey on some of the world’s most scenic, most luxurious train trips, many of which offer fascinating off-train excursions. Choose from the Rocky Mountaineer and travel through dramatic Canadian landscape, Rovos Rail in the heart of South Africa, the luxury Maharajah-style trains of India and more.

Small Groups Tours - In some destinations World Journeys offer the chance to travel with a small group which provides you with not only a local guide and travelling companions, but can be a great option for a more cost effective way to travel.  Group sizes vary per destination but generally range from maximums of 6 to 18 travellers.

Wildlife Journeys - There is little that compares to seeing the world’s wildlife in its natural habitat. Search for game in your high-spec 4×4 or on foot with a guide; glide down a riverine delta watching game come to the water to quench their thirst; or experience nature by horseback. Whilst Africa is well known as the safari continent – they also offer wildlife experiences in India, South America, Canada and Alaska.

Culinary Journeys - Some places you go for the museums, some for the scenery and others, for the cuisine and wine! Enjoy exclusive cooking courses and meals at top restaurants in Vietnam; take an historical and culinary tour in Quebec, complete with a gourmet dinner at La Patriarche; or delve into the heart of the maritime history and culture through cooking lessons in beautiful Italian seaside villages such as Portofino and Cinque Terre.

Active Journeys - Almost all World Journeys tours will include walking as you explore your chosen destination. If you are looking for a higher level of activity then their active journeys could see you walking the Camino Real in Spain; sea kayaking in Alaska or a walking safari in South Luangwa National Park in Zambia.

Wellness Experiences - Unplug from the frantic pace of everyday life and take time for yourself to refresh, rejuvenate and revive.  Fly out to a private island where wellbeing and natural delights take centre stage, take a yoga holiday in India, a massage in a wilderness lodge in Alaska or simply retreat to the Maldives and swim among coral atolls with turquoise crystal lagoons.
