Whether you’re looking to book a private trip with family, friends or a social group, these are the best Culture Trip itineraries you can book on the continent of Africa.


There’s plenty of pros for going private. Obviously it means you can keep the guest-list locked down, but 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.

Epic Morocco

North Africa has a totally distinct flavour of its own, and nowhere tickles your traveller tastebuds more than Morocco, a nation teeming with natural and cultural diversity. Our 11-day tour is a comprehensive experience that shows you this beautiful country’s many faces, from the coastal city of Casablanca to the striking blue streets of Chefchaouen and the old-world charm of Fes. It also takes in the Sahara desert and the Atlas Mountains, as well as the bustling streets of Marrakech. Highlights include a night spent camping in the Sahara – sunrise camel ride included – as well as a Marrakech street food tour and a scenic hike in the Atlas. Our itinerary also places great value on authentic cultural experiences, including a storytelling experience with a local family in Fes, a visit to a Gnawa village in the Sahara and lunch with a local Berber family.

Ultimate Egypt 2024

No country in all of Africa can compete with Egypt when it comes to bucket-list attractions, but this place is about so much more than just the Great Pyramids. You’ll visit them, as well as the Sphinx and the brand new Grand Egyptian Museum, on our nine-day itinerary, but you’ll also get a guided tour through the beating heart of Cairo, stopping off for tea at an iconic local cafe and visiting a traditional bookbinding store, where you can buy a personalised leather notebook. Then we trace the Nile south, first by sleeper train and then on a luxury four night river cruise. You’ll explore Luxor Temple by candlelight, discover the Valley of the Kings and master your haggling skills in the souk of Luxor. More temples and tombs await en route to Aswan, where we’ll swap the river cruiser for a kayak as you go paddling on the Nile, past the incredible islands of Aswan. Cap off the trip of a lifetime with an authentic Nubian dinner – delicious.
