The Best Trips and Tours in the Mediterranean
A Mediterranean holiday is the ultimate way to relax and indulge, whether you’re a couple, a family or a solo traveller. From luxury all-inclusive resorts to charming coastal towns and dreamy hidden beaches, discover the best of the Med on a small-group adventure with Culture Trip.
There’s something special about the Mediterranean way of life. Those slow days along the coast, balmy nights watching the moon’s reflection gently swaying in the ocean, filled up on fresh local produce and fine wine. There are no worries here. The approach to living actively encourages gentle indulgence. Enjoy the little things. Do what makes you happy. It’s the ultimate guilt-free summer treat. While we speak of the Mediterranean like one small country or region, the sea itself actually eats up a pretty meaty chunk of the globe, stretching from the southern tip of Spain all the way to the Middle East, touching pretty much every country in North Africa and Southern Europe en route. So the range of destinations on the Med are incredibly diverse and, with the help of Culture Trip’s neatly packaged itineraries, you can explore some of its most alluring stretches of coastline.
Seductive Southern Italy
Nowhere embodies the Mediterranean spirit quite like Italy’s glorious southern coastlines, which we celebrate on this sumptuous 10-day Italian jolly. We’ll explore Naples and the Amalfi Coast in the west, before crossing inland towards the beautiful beaches and splendid old towns of Puglia. You’ll get to feel like a classic Hollywood star as we wind down the Amalfi on land and sea, while the somehow simultaneously colourful and crystal clear waters of Polignano a Mare’s stunning beaches are the perfect place to cool off on a hot summer day. Don’t forget to indulge in Italy’s incredible culinary culture, too, as we go on a street food tour of Naples, an olive oil tasting near Ostuni and guzzle down plenty of gelato and limoncello along the way.
