      About this trip

      Colombia, magical! Cartagena's beautiful and historic city takes us back to the past, and nature does wonder for the mindset. Take a healing mud bath, go snorkeling and swimming, and sip from a cocktail on the beach. You'll sense that warm Caribbean vibe, coupled with some of the best music and dancing.

      This was a great experience for me on this trip. I was able to meet some wonderful people. The host and her assistant Brandon did an awesome job organizing and scheduling the different activities. I enjoyed the cooking class, just because I love eating. The street food was great and I was surprised to not see any flies. lol. I would recommend this company.

      Truly enjoyed myself. Lots of great food and wonderful group to travel with. Overall had a great time in Thailand! There were a few things that I was expecting to do as a group based on the promotional pictures and trip description. I was under the impression that we were going to a floating market, which I was super excited about. I also thought there was going to be an adult pool party planned for us.. these things didn’t exactly happen but it didn’t spoil my fun. It would have been nice to be made aware of these changes in advance so I could adjust my expectations. But all in all, I had a wonderful time. Thanks!

      This was a trip of a lifetime. The attention to detail was phenomenal . I can't think of anything that was left out or anything I would have changed. Dinner at fun local restaurants, travel to daily excursions, and hotel arraingements, I was impressed from day one. I promise once you do a luxury trip like this, you won't ever want to travel any other way. It can be stressful planning a vacation out of the US, but with Kultured travel, there's no stress, you just show up and enjoy the trip. If your thinking about a trip with Kultured Travel, do it!! Book the trip!! It'll be the best thing you do for yourself.

      This was my first time traveling with Kultured Travel and I must say that I had a great time. The CEO Sabrina and her staff were responsive to my questions and I found the overall trip to be very organized. The welcome and farewell dinners were on point and provided a new experience for all of us attending the trip. Hotel accommodations at the Four Seasons definitely satisified the luxe aspect of the trip. I don't think I can stay anywhere else now. Tickets for our excursions were purchased in advanced which made our entry process go very smoothly. Out tour guides were amazing and not once did I feel unsafe. We had security with us at every location although the atmosphere was very calm despite unrest in neighboring countries. I absolutely loved my traveling group. Six women, from various states, bonded with little effort which added to the enjoyment of the trip. I want to also add that we had the pleasure of having Sabrina accompany us on this trip. I enjoyed meeting her, learning about her journey to starting Kultured Travels, and just engaging in conversation with her night after night. She was very personable and made sure that we had what we needed and where at the locations we needed to be at on time. I highly recommend traveling with this company and am looking forward to my next opportunity to do so.

      I recently toured Egypt with Kultured Travels and what an amazing experience it was. From seeing The Great Sphinx and the pyramids of Giza to visiting the great court of King Ramesses II, every place that we visited was awe-inspiring. But what made this tour even more special was the founder of Kultured Travels and our host Sabrina Frederique who made sure that every detail was covered to make our trip as seamless as possible. Upon arriving in Luxor, we met our designated tour guide/expert on ancient Egypt who stayed with us on our 4-day Nile cruise, while giving us the rich history of the ancient and current-day Egyptians. Besides it being a tour of Egypt, it also felt like a masterclass of sorts for travelers going abroad. I learned a whole lot, had the time of my life and will definitely sign-up with Kultured Travels again for another excursion.
