Imaginative Traveller

Imaginative Traveller has over 300 amazing worldwide adventures that could take you to all the corners of the globe, from the heart of Asia to the Americas, Europe, Africa and of course the  Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean. Travel styles range from small group adventures, family, honeymoon, volunteer, short break escapes and tailor-made experiences - there is something for everyone.

The Imaginative Traveller

Established in 1991, The Imaginative Traveller has grown steadily to become one of the world's leading operators of small group adventure tours.

Innovate don't imitate

Our aim has always been to provide exceptional travel experiences. We believe that travel should be stimulating, and that it should give you an authentic experience of a place. We want our travellers to relish the amazing diversity of countries and cultures the world has to offer. Our focus is on innovation, not imitation.

Obsessed with quality

One of our strengths has been our obsession with quality. We've always believed that our commitment to you doesn't end as soon as you've paid for your holiday. On the contrary, it is just beginning. Whilst most operators simply get a local company to handle the day to day operation of their tours, we do it all ourselves. We have managers based in all our key destinations around the world and all our groups are escorted by our own leaders. Our local teams include guides, drivers, administration staff and contacts in the local community who help us ensure that our adventures are active and involving.

Committed to sustainable tourism

Right from the very start The Imaginative Traveller has been built upon partnerships between ourselves and suppliers in the countries where we operate. Our partners on the ground are from the local community - in many countries the partnerships we have established are as old as the company itself. Our view is that the destination must benefit from our presence. We source all our supplies locally and a high percentage of our staff are recruited locally. This level of local input ensures our trips are run responsibly with the local communities in mind.

Easy to reach

The Imaginative Traveller has its head office in the UK, but we also have a fantastic network of professional travel agents around the globe, each of them specialising in adventure travel. Whether you are a traveller or a travel agent it's easy to contact us. You can call us to speak to experienced travel consultants, chat to our online department by e-mail or take part in our online travel forums. It's not easy to try a holiday before you buy it, but you can find out a lot more about us and the sort of people who travel with us by visiting our travellers' forums. You'll find travellers past, present and future exchanging views, asking questions and talking about their holiday memories, as well as our online consultants offering travel advice.


Tour Styles

Imaginative Traveller understands that everyone is different, and therefore we try and tailor our trips to ensure that they match the level of comfort, and the type of experience that you expect from your adventure with us.

Check out the options below and see which style suits you best.

You love the sometimes tough but ultimately rewarding nature of adventure travel and you want to spend more time enjoying every experience rather than wasting time on travel arrangements 

You love to experience the culture and tradition of a destination but with a level of comfort and organisation that won't test your endurance. Explore without roughing it

If you're drawn to exotic destinations but want to appreciate them in style. These trips stay in the finest accommodation with a high level of comfort 

If you're after a challenge, enjoy exploring more rugged locations and don't mind a distinct lack of facilities. These trips take you off the beaten track 

For parents with their children who have a positive outlook on life and are seeking an alternative to the more conventional family holiday 

Perfect short breaks need the right destination and the right activities. From wildlife watching to wheels on a leisurely self-guided cycling break to week-long Adventure Breaks

As a volunteer you live and work in the community and develop a unique insight into another society - immerse yourself in a culture but still have a holiday 

For those who are not regular "beach and bar" kind of people but who do not want to abandon those precious days of luxury - an ultimate blend of relaxation, luxury and adventure
