Over the last four decades, we’ve remained true to our original objective: offer unparalleled trips to the most fascinating corners of the world. We are a company of travelers, committed to creating superb travel experiences for you.
Everywhere we travel, we bring a special Wilderness Travel style. In Europe, we’re welcomed as family into lovely small hotels, and enjoy delightful picnics of local specialties and fine wines. In Africa, our luxurious safari camps and exclusive lodges are located with ultimate access to wildlife. On Himalayan and Andean treks, unbelievable views surround our comfortable camps with appetizing and varied meals that keep you energized throughout the day, and morning wake-ups come with a hot cup of coffee or tea brought right to your tent.
From your first phone call, we’ll show you why our rate of repeat travelers is so high. Our Area Specialists will be your single point of contact throughout your experience of planning and preparing for your journey (no sales call-centers here!). They will handle all of your trip details, providing specifics about everything you’ll need, from appropriate clothing to what countries need visas. As you travel, our Trip Leaders and local support staff handle the logistics seamlessly, so that you can relax and savor your experience.
WT Trip Leaders are the absolute best in the business. They are naturalists, authors, archaeologists, photographers, and mountaineers, yet all share an extraordinary knowledge of their destinations, and a passion to share their worlds with you. Our Leaders page has bios of these extraordinary—and delightful—travel companions.
We offer an array of travel experiences and can help find the perfect adventure for you. If you’ve always been fascinated by elephants, join us on a Botswana safari to see the great herds on their home plains. Do you love high mountain vistas and learning about new cultures? Take a trek through Nepal’s Annapurnas with our leader who is an expert in Buddhist culture. Browse our website by activity, destination, or date, and even compare trips side by side by adding them to your wishlist. Then give us a call—we offer the dream trip you’ve been searching for.
