Explore Worldwide has added five new small-group adventure itineraries for 2027, spanning Europe, Asia and Latin America, giving Australian advisors new experience-led product across walking, wildlife, food and cultural travel styles.
New itineraries span five destinations
Walking in Provence is an eight-day tour from $4,500 per person, taking travellers through the Luberon Regional Natural Park and hilltop villages including Gordes and Roussillon. Highlights of Sumatra is an eight-day itinerary from $2,140 per person, featuring orangutan spotting in Gunung Leuser National Park and Batak culture around Lake Toba.
Essential Japan: Tokyo, Mount Fuji and Kyoto runs eight days from $6,120 per person, covering the country’s classic gateway cities. Best of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula is an eight-day tour from $4,680 per person, including Chichén Itzá, cenote swimming and Mérida. A Taste of Northern Sri Lanka – Jaffna to Colombo is an 11-day culinary itinerary from $3,750 per person, focused on Tamil heritage and regional cuisine across a lesser-visited part of the island. All prices are in Australian dollars, per person, and exclude flights, with departures available throughout 2027.
New product broadens agent options for niche interests
Ben Ittensohn, regional director for Australia and New Zealand at Explore Worldwide, said the collection is designed to match a range of customer interests to the right itinerary. “For our trade partners, this latest collection provides even more choice across some of the world’s most popular destinations, as well as opportunities to introduce customers to lesser-explored regions,” Ittensohn said.
For agents selling small-group adventure travel, the addition of niche or lesser-visited destinations such as Sumatra and northern Sri Lanka alongside more established markets like Japan and Provence gives advisors more options to match specific client interests, from wildlife and walking through to food-focused touring.
