From the “edge of the world” at the Cape of Good Hope to the endless sands of the Skeleton Coast, the Culturious traveler embarks on extraordinary adventures in some of the most remote – and uncommonly beautiful – places on earth. Paddle a kayak alongside Atlantic seals… climb a skyscraper-high sand dune… see rare Black Rhinos in the wild… sip a sundowner and gaze at a gorgeous African sunset.

Culturious’ Manitoba delivers a life-changing event – viewing the polar bears of the sub-Arctic in their natural surroundings. But there’s so much more to this adventure. Have a fireside chat with a Parks Canada official. Do some bird watching or go trekking off-the-beaten-path on Hecla Island. Have a glass of wine with a Manitoba naturalist. Attend a private reception aboard a replica of the Hudson Bay Company’s historic ship Nonsuch. Even learn some Inuit.

Tiny Costa Rica inspires with natural wonders that make this a popular destination for the Culturious traveler. Wonder no more about emerald-filled craters that camouflage lunar landscapes or cloud forests that kiss the skies with canopied treetops. Trek atop lava flows, hike through jungles, paddle through whitewater rapids, or zip-line through the jungle. Cuba Libre in hand, learn the language of the rainforests with your personal eco-concierge.

Peru & the Amazon tempts with the height of adventure and the lure of the land. Skywalk through the treetops. Sip tea – and pisco sours – with the locals. Share the sunrise at a mist-shrouded Machu Picchu with your Culturious amigos. Don a poncho for a ride atop a Peruvian Paso, or a pair of binoculars as you go orchid-hunting, bear-spotting or bird-watching. The options are endless, the excitement, palpable and the friendships, everlasting.

Old-world traditions still run strong in the inspiring villages of Tuscany & Cinque Terre. You'll taste it in the fragrant olive oils and the local cheeses found at a sleepy sidewalk cafe. You'll feel it in a stroll through the picturesque olive groves and Tuscan hillsides. Experience, food, culture and beauty that only Italy can offer as you fall in love with this great country.
