Amazing Virtual Adventures

While we all sit tight and wait for the world to become a safer place to travel, our guides are busy finding fun ways for you to continue to learn, connect and explore…virtually!

From home, you can now meet a number of our local guides from all over the world on your own Live Virtual Tour. During your tour, you’ll spend an hour or two talking to your new friend and learning about their city’s culture, landscape, food, art and history. Via your laptop or tablet, you can do everything from learning to cook an Italian meal from a kitchen in Ravenna, to understanding the history of Salvador, Brazil through the lens of AfroSambas music. These are NOT pre-recorded experiences: it's you and your guide, live and one-on-one.

You can invite your friends and family to join you on this virtual journey! Just book the tour and send the link to any friends or family you'd like along for the ride.
