Mountain hikes, fine wine and hearty fare in Georgia

Food and drink are at the centre of your nine-day trip to Georgia, known as the Cradle of Wine for its millennia-long winemaking heritage. You’ll taste the national dish “khachapuri” (a hearty cheese-filled bread), attend a masterclass in traditional Georgian cooking and see how the country’s wine is made in subterranean clay vats. Nature-orientated highlights include hiking through the Lagodekhi National Park and Caucasus Mountains. Finish with a massage and a soak in the sulphur baths of Tbilisi.

Island-hopping in the Greek Cyclades

Experience the soul-soothing wonder of Mediterranean life on this eight-day Greek odyssey, which starts with an intro to Athens before island-hopping between some of the archipelago’s most underrated islands. Visit the iconic Acropolis and discover the lesser-known contemporary joys of Athens’ trendiest neighbourhoods, before embarking on boat cruises around the quaint island of Milos, and chilling on the pristine beaches of laid-back Naxos. Finally, we’ll end up on the photogenic island of Santorini, where we’ll gather together for one last dinner as the sun sets over the island’s iconic blue-domed buildings.

Since you are here, we would like to share our vision for the future of travel - and the direction Culture Trip is moving in.

Culture Trip launched in 2011 with a simple yet passionate mission: to inspire people to go beyond their boundaries and experience what makes a place, its people and its culture special and meaningful — and this is still in our DNA today. We are proud that, for more than a decade, millions like you have trusted our award-winning recommendations by people who deeply understand what makes certain places and communities so special.

Increasingly we believe the world needs more meaningful, real-life connections between curious travellers keen to explore the world in a more responsible way. That is why we have intensively curated a collection of premium small-group trips as an invitation to meet and connect with new, like-minded people for once-in-a-lifetime experiences in three categories: Culture Trips, Rail Trips and Private Trips. Our Trips are suitable for both solo travelers, couples and friends who want to explore the world together.

Culture Trips are deeply immersive 5 to 16 days itineraries, that combine authentic local experiences, exciting activities and 4-5* accommodation to look forward to at the end of each day. Our Rail Trips are our most planet-friendly itineraries that invite you to take the scenic route, relax whilst getting under the skin of a destination. Our Private Trips are fully tailored itineraries, curated by our Travel Experts specifically for you, your friends or your family.

We know that many of you worry about the environmental impact of travel and are looking for ways of expanding horizons in ways that do minimal harm - and may even bring benefits. We are committed to go as far as possible in curating our trips with care for the planet. That is why all of our trips are flightless in destination, fully carbon offset - and we have ambitious plans to be net zero in the very near future.
