Explorations with Collette afford deeper, more authentic travel experiences that enrich your visit to places like Antarctica, Namibia, and Japan. With Collette by your side, every journey is extraordinary.

Packing like a pro versus cramming everything into your suitcase yields different results, much like choosing the right tour provider.
With Collette’s Explorations tours, their differences are stand-outs, including:

- Regionally designed Every tour is crafted from the ground up by local experts who live and breathe (and travel around) their destination
