Leave the city lights behind and discover the remotest destinations in the world on these specially curated Culture Trip adventures.

We all love a city break, but there comes a time when you really need to get away from it all. Cue a trip to one of the remotest places in the world. Often hundreds of miles from the mainland, these isolated island vacation spots offer unspoilt natural beauty and incredible biodiversity. Whether you’re snorkelling with sea turtles in Indonesia or hanging out with giant tortoises in the Galápagos Islands, Culture Trip’s small-group remote vacations will fully immerse you in blissfully peaceful, unspoilt nature.

Go Wild in the Galápagos Islands

A vacation to the Galápagos Islands means leaving the human world behind and entering the animal kingdom. Giant tortoises, penguins, sea lions, sharks, iguanas and an abundance of colourful birds will be your company on this five-day trip around the islands. You’ll be led by our Local Insider and will get to see the more rugged side of the archipelago with an exclusive visit to some of the uninhabited islands. No roads, no cars, no bars or restaurants – just pure, unspoilt nature at its most majestic.

Blissful Bali

A holiday in Bali is the ultimate tropical escape as it is, but this 12-day itinerary takes it to the next level as we spend three nights on the tiny island of Gili Trawangan, part of the Gili Islands between Bali and Lombok. We’ll hop on a speedboat to get there and spend our time fully immersing in the serene joys of tropical island life. Snorkel with sea turtles, discover the eery life-sized underwater statues near Gili Meno and spend sunset barbecuing and sipping cocktails on the beach. You’ll have loads of free time during your time here, so you can enjoy the luxury of our island resort with yoga sessions and massage treatment, chill by the pool or hit the beach. Gili Trawangan is so small that you can actually walk around the entire coastline in just a few hours. – that’s the best way to discover the island’s most amazing hidden beaches.
