Tripwired by Michael Gebicki luxury small group tours for the curious traveller

Michael has spent half a lifetime writing and photographing travel stories. “During that time I’ve discovered some pretty remarkable places that I wanted to share with other like-minded travellers, and out of that Tripwired Tours was born. It’s not just places but also a style of travel. I like to travel slowly, I don’t like long bus trips, I like flexible itineraries that allow me to pursue my own interests, I like small hotels with character and calm as well as comfort and I like to eat great food in lovely surroundings but I also like street food from time to time, and that’s where Liz comes in.”

Meet Liz, the maestra of discovering enchanting havens, culinary treasures, and the extraordinary moments that define our small-group tours. Now, let me share a captivating chapter: Liz and I have been journeying together since the ’70s, and the spark of wonder, excitement, and sheer joy in our travels continues to burn brightly.

Our purpose is profound: we yearn to infuse your travels with the same sense of exhilaration and discovery that has fueled our own odyssey. When you choose to embark on this adventure with us, envision a tapestry woven with threads of inspiration, exploration, and the enduring magic that makes travel a transformative experience.
