In 2020 we saw the sharp resurgence of road trips. And of course, it makes total sense – complete privacy, the freedom to explore at your own pace, child-friendly, and nothing but the open road ahead of you. So, we joined forces with our friends at Auberge Resorts Collection to create a number of epic road trips around the US. But these slow paced road trips don’t just take you from place to place, they take you on a deeper journey and through the other side. You’ll connect with the culture, design, and flavour of New England as you make your way from Connecticut to Kennebunk, meeting lobster fisherman en route and bedding down at gorgeous Auberge properties like the White Barn Inn. And as part of our exclusive partnership, we’ll even give you a Mercedes Benz for the duration of your trip.

Stumbled upon by mythical Odysseus and home to the legendary Cyclops, Sicily is a region steeped in rich, beautiful history. And on this ten-night slow travel tour, we’ll take you on a journey full of great Greek Gods through to Sicilian Kings. In Palermo uncover ancient palaces, ride on the back of Vespas and sample delicious street food from the markets. Fleeing to the countryside for some rural farm living, we’ll arrange olive grove tours and traditional pasta-making courses for you to impress your friends once home. Along the way, we’ve handpicked some of Sicily’s most elegant, luxurious hotels for you, like Villa Athena in the heart of the world’s largest archaeological site and Mandranova high on the secluded hills of the southwest.

Featured in our Journeys to Come series, the landlocked country of Mongolia is every bit enigmatic as it is enchanting – continually defying all our expectations. And on this cultural journey, you’ll (slowly) head deep into the snowy wilderness of Mongolia to meet – and learn from – the last reindeer herders in Mongolia; the Dukha. The Dukha have lived in the jagged peaks and snowy forests of Taiga for centuries, constantly moving their tented camps in pursuit of rich grazing grounds. On this slow travel trip to North Asia, you’ll share, learn and discover with them as you catch a glimpse of their wonderfully authentic world through traditional ceremonies, campfire cooking and reindeer herding.

Worlds apart from the neighbouring DRC, The Congo is typically regarded as one of the safer African nations. Teamed with the fact it’s still relatively undiscovered amongst travellers, we’re longing to lead you to the action in its flourishing wildlife-packed rainforests. After a pitstop in the capital city of Brazzaville, we’ll fly you out to the heart of Odzala-Kokua National Park to get back to basics. In the company of a passionate gorilla research team, you’ll set up camp in Ngaga, before diving in with the expert guides and skilled trackers for some days of gorilla trekking. With around 105 individual gorillas in the area, now is the time to slow down, listen to the noisy hoots, and navigate the dense rainforest searching for these elusive creatures.
