G Adventures: Small-Group Travel with a Big Difference
Small-Group Travel with a Big Difference
The next time you travel, make the experience one that takes you deeper into the cultures and mysteries of the places you visit. With G Adventures, that means choosing unique small-group tours that offer more inclusions, greater hands-on exploration, interactions with local experts, and the freedom to roam, all with the security and camaraderie of a group of like-minded travelers.
G Adventures also believes in sustainable tourism, embracing the catchphrase "Don't just see the world. Make it better." That means your travel dollars work to support locally owned businesses rather than large international chains, as well as animal welfare and disaster relief efforts.
Discover the world's most fascinating creatures on one of G Adventures' 20 wildlife-focused tours from the Jane Goodall Collection. These outstanding tours have been endorsed by world-renowned primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall; each has been designed to bring you into close contact with the planet's most amazing animals in a manner that respects their freedom and dignity. Best yet, each purchase of a Jane Goodall Collection tour supports the Jane Goodall Institute and its conservation efforts.

G Adventures has partnered with the Jane Goodall Institute to bring you an amazing selection of unique wildlife tours in every corner of the world. From the Arctic to the Amazon Jungle, these adventures open up a fresh new way of experiencing unusual and beautiful creatures in their native habitat.
Experience icebergs, polar bears, and other arctic wonders up close
Realm of the Polar Bear: Spend 8 fascinating days aboard G Adventures' expedition ship as you get up-close to the Arctic's icebergs and glaciers--as well as wilderness animals like polar bears, seals, and reindeer!

Zodiac landings let you explore more closely as you take to land to visit historical sites and experience the tundra first-hand. Depart round-trip from the colorful town of Longyearbyen, Norway. For a limited time, you can save 15% on select 2018 sailing dates.
Take in the primal beauty of the Serengeti
Tanzania Safari Experience: Go on an unforgettable 7-day adventure in Tanzania in pursuit of the "Big Five" of the safari world. Visit the plains of the Serengeti, the scenic Lake Manyara region, and Ngorongoro Crater, teeming with wildlife. Each small-group safari drive (max of 6 people) is led by trained guides who impart their wisdom as they get you close to the action. You'll also visit a Masai village and the important paleoanthropological site of the Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania's Great Rift Valley. On this National Geographic Journey, you'll explore the part of Africa where the cradle of humanity meets the undisputed masters of the animal kingdom. Depart round-trip from Arusha; rates start from $3,484/person and include most meals and activities.
Go eyeball-to-eyeball with Galapagos wildlife
Galapagos Island Hopping with Quito: Explore the main islands of the Galapagos as well as the historic center of Quito, Ecuador, as you travel for 9 days on this wildlife-filled adventure. You'll travel between Floreana, Isabela, and Santa Cruz islands by speedboat, staying in each location long enough to relax and do some snorkeling and swimming. You'll also visit the Charles Darwin Research Station, the seldom-frequented highlands of Floreana, and the active Sierra Negra Volcano, where you'll walk around the rim of the crater. Along the way, you'll see white-tipped reef sharks, marine iguanas, blue-footed boobies, and the famous Galapagos giant tortoises. Depart round-trip from Quito; rates start from $2,199/person and include most meals and activities.
Venture into the Costa Rican rainforest
Explore Costa Rica: There's still great availability for last-minute 2017 travel to Costa Rica on this adventurous 14-day National Geographic Journey. You'll venture off the beaten path to lush jungle, visit a sea turtle conservancy program, have a soak in volcanic hot springs, and maybe even opt to zip-line through the forest canopy. You'll also enjoy guided boat trips through the canals and coastal jungle for wildlife viewing, spotting monkeys (howler, spider, and white-faced capuchin), sloths, caiman (related to alligators), and big, big lizards. Plus, you'll get to try your hand at tortilla-making, digging into a feast of tasty Costa Rican casado afterward, complete with your own tortillas!
