G Adventures is expanding its fast-growing Geluxe Collection with 16 new trips, aimed at travellers seeking active, immersive experiences beyond the traditional beach holiday,

The new offerings bring the Geluxe Collection to 82.

G Adventures’ research shows that 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.

The new itineraries immerse travellers in destinations shaped by the sea through hiking, kayaking, wildlife encounters, local cuisine and meaningful cultural experiences, says Marceau.

The Geluxe Collection has become one of G Adventures’ most popular product ranges, with active, small-group adventures combined with premium accommodation, immersive food experiences and community tourism that brings each destination to life.
