Costa Rican rain forests, Roman ruins, Napa vineyards—most Classic Journeys destinations are, well, classic. What's unique is the chance to see these areas under a microscope, thanks to the slow pace of walking. Locals often invite clients into their homes and introduce them to everything from regional cuisine to sporting events.
Often, our guests are more accustomed to traveling on their own. Our small group tours (North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia and around the world) with local guides accomplish what you seek in your own private travels. As one of the premier cultural walking tour operators, Classic Journeys offers our guests spontaneity, flexibility and a sense of personal discovery - minus the logistical hassles.
Travel in memorable style on our small group tours - North America, Europe and worldwide
At Classic Journeys, we approach our overseas adventure tours with total enthusiasm for a region's people and culture. You enjoy:

    Easy-going activity options…Select from a range of walking and non-walking choices not offered by most walking tour operators.
    First class inns and lodges, whether you join us on one of our cultural walking Normandy tours, a culinary trip in Italy, or one of our Grand Canyon family vacations.
    Food to walking, wine to ecotourism, Tuscany and our other regions around the world offer unique cultures and history brought to life by our friendly, expert local guides.
    Exceptional cuisine…Enjoy local specialties in fine typical restaurants.
    Italy & Greece travels highlight some of the famed historic sites we visit in Europe, but we also enjoy exploring Anasazi, Incan and early North American dwellings on our adventure tours (USA, Canada and Latin America) in the Americas.
    Small group tours: North America, Europe, and worldwide

A variety of ways to enjoy your domestic and international outdoor adventure travels with Classic Journeys:

    Cultural and walking adventure tours: USA, Europe and around the world
    Culinary tours (Tuscany and Amalfi in Italy and Provence France)
    Bring the kids along on our Latin American, New Zealand, European or North American-including Grand Canyon-family vacations

International outdoor adventure travel offers guests the chance to see the world through the eyes of a local, who knows the ins and outs of each region. In France and England, walking tours began with pilgrimages centuries ago, and we often follow scenic footpaths that connect lovely villages. While some walking tour operators like to walk all day or from inn to inn, at Classic Journeys, we prefer to select from a range of walking options and other choices. If you like to fall into the tempo of the places you visit and experience things on your international outdoor adventure travels you never expected, please join us.

Croatia'S Dalmatian Coast Walking Tour

Croatia'S Dalmatian Coast Walking Tour

Dubrovnik Airport, Dubrovnik, Croatia for 7 Days • from $4,095* per person

Provider: Classic Journeys

On this earth, we have never seen anywhere more beautiful than the southern coast of Croatia. Even the grandeur of Dubrovnik—for 500 years the peer of Venice—didn't prepare us for the simple, sweeping vistas along the Adriatic. We recommend going now, before the growing buzz attracts the crowds. Today, you can still spend an hour or two on a farm trail between the aquamarine sea and a patchwork of tiny fields with a scattering of goats—and never see another visitor.… more
