The expansion comes as demand continues to grow for coastal holidays that offer more than just beach time. Research conducted by G Adventures last year found that travellers feel happiest when spending time by the coast, with ‘time on a beach’ ranking first and being ‘in or on the water’ ranking second. Rather than simply visiting the coast, the new itineraries immerse travellers in destinations through hiking, kayaking, wildlife encounters, local cuisine and cultural experiences.
Originally launched to fill a gap in the market for a more elevated style of adventure travel, the Geluxe Collection has quickly become one of G Adventures’ most popular product ranges.
New itineraries in the collection include Malta: Valletta, the Blue Grotto & Gozo Island; Madeira: Pico do Arieiro, Fanal Forest & Porto Moniz; Vancouver Island: Victoria, the Broken Group Islands & Salt Spring; Seychelles: Vallee de Mai, Curieuse Island & the Shores of Anse Lazio; Sri Lanka: Leopard Safaris, Tea Highlands & Ancient Temples. Other recently launched trips include Dominica: Waterfalls, Volcanic Peaks & Kalinago Culture; Dominica: Whales, Waterfalls & the Wild Caribbean; and Greece: Walking in the Greek Islands.
