Message your most adventurous travel buddies and prepare for the thrill of a lifetime when you book one of these Culture Trip itineraries as a private trip.

There’s plenty of pros for going private. Obviously it means you can keep the guest-list locked down, so you can enjoy memory-making travel experiences with only the ones you love most. It also allows for far greater flexibility on travel dates, group sizes (minimum of 4) and even age requirements. Simply get in touch with our Travel Experts to organise your personalised Culture Trip adventure.

Adventurous Ecuador

This little South American gem might be small but it crosses both the Andes and the Amazon, which means a pretty extraordinary array of natural features to clamber over, across and through. Our eight-day Ecuador itinerary is full of adrenaline-fuelled activities, so be sure to stock up on chocolate in Quito. From there it’s non-stop, starting with a horse ride in Cotopaxi National Park and a hike around Limpiopungo Lagoon. The bravest members of your group will have a go on the vertigo-inducing Swing at the End of the World, while your bike ride along the Baños Waterfall Route will be the most scenic in your lifetime. As we approach the Amazon you’ll go whitewater rafting down Jatunyacu River and spot rainforest creatures on a nighttime jungle hike. Luckily, our Amazon lodge is as cosy as anything, so you can rest and recover before your trip comes to an end.

Atlantic Azores

This remote volcanic archipelago, far off the coast of Portugal, makes a case for being Europe’s premier adventure playground. Our six-day itinerary certainly echoes that claim, as we explore the many natural bounties of São Miguel, its largest island. The fertile volcanic grounds, and a warmer climate that Iceland, means this place glows in hues of green and blue. You’ll get to explore every shade as you cycle around the surreal volcanic crater lakes of Sete Cidades, before getting a closer look at those green waters on a kayak. You’ll go whale watching off the coast, canyon down slippery ravines in Ribeira dos Caldeirões and hike around Furnas Lake. Respite will come in the form of natural bubbling hot springs, evening cocktails and a hearty cozido stew, which you’ll help prepare before letting it simmer underground for six hours, cooking with only the geothermal heat provided by the island itself.

Blissful Bali

You might associate this Indonesian paradise with spiritual retreats and party tourists, but Bali’s magical landscape makes for a perfect adventure destination. Our 12-day epic blends the best of both worlds, with much of the high-energy activities taking place in the first week. You’ll trek across rice paddies to discover rural villages and scenic hilltop views, hike to Banyumala Twin Waterfalls for a picnic and a swim, as well as taking part in a challenging FlyHigh Yoga session. On day five you’ll set the alarms early for a stunning sunrise hike to the top of Mount Batur, a giant volcano with epic views across the island. Watching the sun gently bathe Bali in a warm glow, having walked all the way to the top yourself, is about as worthy a reward as you imagine. Later on we’ll speedboat you over to Gili Trawangan, a tiny island where a gorgeous beach resort awaits. If you’ve still got the energy you can snorkel with sea turtles and walk around the entire island (it only takes a few hours). If you’re tapping out, though, we don’t blame you – especially when you see the pristine beaches, the infinity pool and the onsite spa facilities.
