G Adventures came from a desire to deliver authentic and responsible small group travel adventures that were equally life-changing for travellers and the communities they visit. And we’re been doing just that for almost 30 years.
Our award-winning trips span seven continents and over 100 countries, giving you meaningful experiences with people, cultures, landscapes and wildlife, as well as offering you the freedom and flexibility to explore on your own.
On all of our tours, you get to know locals every step of the way, from the places you visit and stay to where you eat and drink. You’ll also get to experience our ‘G for Good’ social impact initiatives on-trip, including our industry-leading ‘Ripple Score’. This score measures, as a percentage, the amount of money that stays in the local community through on-trip services like accommodation, restaurants and transport.
We are the world’s leading and most awarded travel brand spanning all 7 continents of the globe. From the iconic to the unexpected our guests connect to the real depth of the places we go.

Spent an amazing 3 weeks exploring the 3 countries. Never knew of Belize before signing up for this tour and had one of the best snorkeling experience ever. Being a bit of a longer tour than the usual 2 weeks, it can get tiring towards the end but this tour really covers a lot of places and distances and much time on the road. Nevertheless, this tour ...read more is a great way to get the taste of Mexico, Guatemala and Belize. Best tacos and coffees.

Amazing, enjoyable experience from beginning to end. Tour guide, hotel and itinerary were excellent. Will hope to travel there again.
We have just returned from a fantastic Trafalgar tour of the east coast of USA and Canada. We had a terrific time! The itinerary was pretty packed, but we still had plenty of time to ourselves to explore, and never felt pressured to hurry along.
