Go Greek island-hopping in the Cyclades

Don’t discard a Greek Isles cruise simply because it’s a popular honeymoon destination in Europe. Sure, this eight-day odyssey offers the chance to see the famed Acropolis and take the obligatory selfie in front of Santorini’s blue domes. But while other lovebirds head to Mykonos or Crete, the captain of your love boat will sail you to the pristine beaches of Naxos and the brightly painted Cycladic-style houses of Milos. It’s a bucket-list trip that delivers on the quintessential Greek island-hopping experience with a few happy surprises on the registry.

Make bucket-list memories to last a lifetime in Egypt

Been saving that big trip-of-a-lifetime for the honeymoon? Who doesn’t have the Pyramids of Giza somewhere on their list? Well, our Ultimate Egypt itinerary blends must-see sightseeing stops with hidden treasures far from the tourist trail. You and your loved one can snap selfies at the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx, as well as marvelling at the Valley of the Kings. We’ll even make Luxor Temple a little bit more romantic by visiting at night, when the place is illuminated by candlelight. We’ll also discover hidden gems in the heart of Cairo, experience authentic Nubian cuisine and, best of all, spend four nights cruising down the Nile on a luxury ship.

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.
