What Makes Our Cultural Trips Unique?
Ever since MT Sobek took its first footsteps into the remote kingdom of Nepal in 1969, we have traveled with a natural curiosity, an open mind, and with a deep respect for the cultures we encounter. We select local guides who can skillfully navigate the complexities of undertaking cultural journeys in destinations as far flung as Iraqi Kurdistan or as close to home as Cuba. For 2020, we are extending our cultural travels in Africa and adding immersive adventures in Eqypt and Morocco, where classical antiquities and desert camel treks await! Plus, the continuing success of our Istria to Venice Culinary Route has tickled our taste buds-leading to new food and wine journeys in South Africa and closer to home in Oregon.
