We’ve always believed that travel isn’t just about where you go — it’s about how it changes you.
From the very beginning, we set out to do things differently. No cookie-cutter tours. No giant buses or cruise ships. Just real people, venturing out into the world with open minds, open hearts, and a sense of purpose.
For over 35 years, we’ve been creating life-changing experiences that connect travellers with the communities they visit — not just passing through, but showing up with care, curiosity, and intention. We call it community tourism, and it’s been in our DNA since day one.
But we’re not just a travel company. We’re a people company. Powered by the passion of our team, the heartbeat of our local partners, and the energy of every traveller who’s ever said “yes” to something new.
To travel your heart out is to go all in. To move through the world with compassion, courage, and joy. It’s about embracing the bizarre, celebrating the beautiful, and connecting with something bigger than yourself. It means leading with love — for the planet, for people, and for the possibilities that come with saying let’s go.
We don’t do this to fill passports. We do it to fill lives. To build connection. To create joy. To leave the world better than we found it — one step, one trip, one ripple at a time.
This is travel that goes way beyond travelling. This is G Adventures. And we’re just getting started.
Since 1975, we have operated authentic and unique adventure travel holidays with a genuine focus on taking our travellers along the paths less travelled.
We are the pioneers in designing ground-breaking itineraries and many say our trips start where others end.
As the leaders in thoughtful travel, our 'BIG adventures, small footprint' philosophy was recognised in 2019 when we were crowned the best in adventure travel by our industry peers, winning the Adventure Travel Wholesaler of the Year at The Travel Awards in Sydney.
While safety is core to how we operate, we’re also focused on the fun factor and suitably challenging you to reach that great sensation of personal achievement while enjoying the camaraderie of like-minded travellers.
