Dear Traveler ,
There is nothing quite like the anticipation that comes with planning an adventure . Our family certainly has travel on our minds these days . I recently returned from Central Europe , where I eagerly explored destinations I had have never visited before . Meanwhile , Charlotte is heading to Holland and Edward to Portugal with their families . When she returns from her trip , Charlotte and I will finalize plans for our annual mother-daughter trip . And lately I have felt a familiar longing in my heart for la dolce vita — and for the girls ’ trips to Italy that were once a beloved tradition among my group of friends .
It is with travel dreams in mind that we announce 2025 Land and Small Ship Adventures are now available to reserve — including 19 NEW adventures to the gleaming temples of Thailand , diverse landscapes of Brazil , and beyond .
Perhaps you will venture to Patagonia , where you will hike alongside glaciers , cruise among dramatic fjords , and discover what it is like to live at the bottom of the world . Or spend A Day in the Life of famously friendly locals in popular destinations like Sicily and Japan — two of our family ’ s favorites . Or sail through history in the Greek isles aboard one of our award-winning , privately owned small ships .
No matter where you dream of exploring next , you will enjoy authentic cultural experiences in a small group of no more than 16 on land and 25 by small ship . Plus , you have the flexibility to personalize your experience any way you like — like the 87 % of O . A . T . travelers who make their trip their own . Their most popular choice ? Our optional trip extensions , which allow you to expand your discoveries abroad — including in destinations not available on our main trips . You can also arrive a few days early , upgrade your flights , and more .
From travelers ’ favorite trips to exciting new destinations , a world of discovery awaits within these pages . We look forward to helping you fulfill your travel dreams in 2025 .
Warm regards ,
Harriet Lewis Chair
Edward Lewis Vice Chair
Charlotte Lewis Vice Chair
