About Earthbound Expeditions - 1.800.723.8454
We're celebrating!
It’s been over ten years since we first conceived of the idea of Earthbound Expeditions. Since then,
Earthbounders have swam with the seals in the Galapagos, howled with the howler monkeys in Costa Rica, enjoyed cooking classes in a 12th century Tuscan castle and skipped through the sun-drenched Dalmatian islands of Croatia.
As we expand and create new small group adventures, our mission remains constant. That is to uncover the many mysteries of the planet with our guests in a truly enriching way. To accomplish this, Earthbound has chosen to take it slow. Getting to know a local baker, sipping a fine Vino Nobile with the village winemaker or strolling through a colorful outdoor market is precisely what travel is all about for us. Earthbound Expeditions is dedicated to the art of travel and will stop at nothing (except for the occasional eruption of Mt. Etna) to ensure your journey with us is a memorable experience.
If you are in search of an authentic travel experience, take a peek at Earthbound's one-of-a-kind, hand crafted journeys. Designed for the traveler with an independent streak, our small group adventures are certain to please and delight those not wishing to take a "tour" but a journey. We look forward to exploring the world with you!
Buon viaggio!

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
Stay in the heart of grand capitals and quaint villages. Sleep in charming family-owned hotels, castles and palaces. Leave the taxis and buses behind–simply walk out your door and start exploring!
PERFECT TIMING
Carefully crafted itineraries offer you the best of a destination without long bus rides or being rushed. You’ll have more time for discovering hidden back alleyways, cozy cafes and world-class museums.
AUTHENTIC "INSIDER” EXPERIENCES
Earthbounders enjoy one-of-a-kind intimate experiences with local experts. From a backstage tour of a famous opera house to a cooking class with a distinguished Sicilian chef, Earthbounders experience more than other travelers!
SMALL GROUPS, BIG DIFFERENCE
Enjoy a city walk with a local expert. Explore a village market. Traveling with just 10-20 fellow travelers (except for hosted journeys), you’ll discover treasures that are simply not available to large tour groups.
INTIMATE DINING: THE FULL FLAVOR
Dine in charming cafes, local trattorias and quaint bistros. Savor regional specialties the way they were meant to be enjoyed.
NO HIDDEN COSTS
All admissions and special events listed in your itinerary are included. Even tips for your guide and driver.
SUPERB EXPEDITION LEADERS
Our experienced guides offer a unique perspec- tive on the places you’ll visit. These group leaders are not just great historians, naturalists and linguists, but as our happy alumni can testify, they are also great travel companions!
