"If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay home." - James A Michener

Boundless Journeys' small group cultural tours in Asia, Europe, Latin America, and Africa carefully uncover, gently explore, and quietly meander through some of the most exceptional and unspoiled places in the world. Our expert local guides reveal traditional customs, exotic flavors and foods, and beautiful surroundings. In each locale, Boundless Journeys' relationship with the local people ensure our small groups are welcomed as friends.

What cultural encounters can you expect on a Boundless Journeys adventure tour? Our Peru hiking tour includes an evening in a local home for a very special meal. On our active Bhutan tour, we immerse ourselves in a colorful tsechu festival. Irish music played spontaneously by talented local musicians accompanies us on our Ireland walking tour.

But it is perhaps the unplanned cultural encounters – moments sharing mint tea with your guide's friends in Casablanca, a lively game of sapo at a chicha bar in Peru, or enjoying sundowners around a campfire in the African bush with a Maasai tribesman – that are the most memorable.
