National Geographic travel tours provide the ideal balance of must-see highlights, hands-on exploration, free time and chances to create lasting connections with the people and places you encounter.
Tours offer culturally-immersive experiences, exclusive access to special people and projects, upgraded accommodations and extra inclusions – all within the structure and security of small groups.
Adventure Travel
Adventure travel is all about experiencing new places and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. Whether it’s jumping out of an airplane or swimming with sharks, the adrenaline rush of exploration is what draws people to these trips.
Adventure travel should always be approached with an eye towards gaining emotions from the experience. Sometimes that means feeling exhilarated; other times it could be feelings of euphoria or spiritual growth.
National Geographic’s Cheetah Conservation in Namibia, for instance, allows guests to gain insight into the animal’s history and biology through direct interaction with locals. They’ll also have the chance to interact with Buddhist monks, marine biologists and photographers during their stay.
On these trips, families can experience National Geographic themes like photography and storytelling; history and culture; wildlife conservation; and exploration. Activities include wildlife spotting in Alaska’s national parks – where children can earn a junior ranger badge; pasta making and gladiator school in Italy; sumo wrestling lessons with samurai
Cultural Travel
Experience the world with National Geographic on affordable cultural trips to places like Peru, Costa Rica and Southern Africa. Organized around four National Geographic themes–photography and storytelling, wildlife, culture, history and exploration–these tours give families a chance to explore together while learning something new about their destination at an affordable cost.
Each trip includes pre-departure resources and materials from National Geographic to prepare each family member for their upcoming adventure. Furthermore, kid-friendly meal options are provided throughout the journey.
