One of the highlights of our Japan trip? A visit to the enchanting Snow Monkey Park in Nagano! 🐒❄️ Watching the famous snow monkeys relax at their natural hot spring onsens is one of the cutest things you’ll ever see! 🛁✨

Did you know snow monkeys are the only primates (besides humans) known to bathe in hot springs? They started soaking in Jigokudani’s onsens after mimicking humans back in the 1960s! Our “10 Days in Japan” groups hiked the beautiful trails, soaked in the incredible scenery, shared laughs, and snapped photos of these adorable locals. 🤩

Perched on the highest point of the Citadel of Saladin and channeling some serious “Ottoman vibes”, the Muhammad Ali Mosque (aka the “Alabaster Mosque”) was commissioned by Muhammad Ali Pasha between 1830 and 1848—the founder of modern-day Egypt! 🇪🇬 Inspired by the Blue Mosque in Istanbul, it also houses Muhammad Ali’s tomb inside its stunning interior. 🕌😍

Our “10 Days in Egypt” groups visit this breathtaking mosque and even take in the incredible views from up on the citadel. On a clear day, you can even spot the Great Pyramids in the distance. 😱🤩

Did you know that the Douro Valley is not only one of the oldest wine regions in the world, but also a UNESCO World Heritage Site? Known for its terraced vineyards that cling to steep hillsides, it’s the birthplace of Portugal’s famous Port wine. 🍷😍 The unique “schist” soil in Douro is key to the grapes’ intense flavors, helping them thrive through hot summers and cold winters. 🍇💪🏼

Our 11 Days in Portugal & Morocco groups take a day trip into this incredible valley, where we learn all about winemaking in the region and, of course, taste some of its amazing wines. Yes, please! 🙌🏻🍷😎

Spring is the perfect time to visit Portugal, right as the vineyards are reawakening and turning green! 🌳 If exploring the beauty of the Douro Valley and tasting all it has to offer sounds perfect to you, there are still spots available on our April 2025 trips! ✨
