As the world begins to open back up to travellers, there’s never been a better time to blow the dust off that bucket list. From exploring the Mayan ruins of the Yucatán Peninsula to travelling by steam train in Sri Lanka, here’s our selection of the best wanderlust-inducing group tours, all led by our Local Insiders.
1 . Roaming the valleys of Yosemite National Park
Yosemite, one of the oldest national parks in the world, has dizzying mountain peaks, thundering waterfalls and ancient giant sequoias. Hike through the wilderness, cool off in Tenaya Lake and bask in sunset views atop Sentinel Dome on this seven-day trip through northern California. You’ll then leave the wild behind to sample wine at vineyards in Sonoma Valley, cruise down the Pacific Coast highway and explore the street art scene of San Francisco.

After days spent exploring, find your balance with sunset yoga or kick back on the white sands of Tulum and Isla Holbox.
