Adventures with room to breathe

We work with local merchants, artisans, chefs, guides and visionaries to create, real + epic small group trips you'll never forget. Est. 2018.

Our curated group adventures are designed for the curious solo traveller who prefers forest trails over pool chairs, who wants to raise their heart rate (but not too much), who values community and connection, and who wants their travel dollars to support small local businesses.

Book onto any of the listed group departures, or contact us to book a private departure for a group of 4 or more.
