Intellectual Tourism
It’s not about scratching the surface or ticking boxes. It’s about going in with open eyes, listening to the people who live there, experiencing life as they live it and learning as much as possible along the way.
Why InTo?
Curiosity and immersion are the principles which guide Intellectual Tourism. Going somewhere is often nothing more than a brief encounter, seeing “the sites” and 'crossing off' the popular locations of interest - been there, done that! We prefer to see travel as an adventure which involves respect, fascination and wonder. We invite you to deep dive into local history, customs, food, music, art and experience the unique cultures of these vibrant spaces and places.
What Do We Do?
Put simply, we create immersive experiences. We encourage you to become part of a different world, a different way of living and to see the world through the eyes of another. By coming with us, we hope to create 'resonances' between your curiosity and where you are. Our trips are often organised around particular concepts, themes or subjects. They can focus on specific periods in time. You can expect to take part in workshops, hikes, tours, wine tastings, cooking, art classes. You might find yourself in abandoned towns, subway systems, performances, graveyards… you name it, we’ve probably got a trip for it! And if we haven't, we'll create one especially for you. You’ll be guaranteed to experience a cornucopia of delights all geared toward the INtelligent traveler.
Where Do We Go?
For 2025, we are planning adventures in Bruges, Lisbon, Naples, Prague, Strasbourg and Vienna. We will be expanding our portfolio in 2026 to include Budapest, Dublin, Edinburgh, Oxford, Reykjavik and Stockholm. Beyond that, we are casting our envious eyes over Amsterdam, Athens, Berlin, Copenhagen, Paris and Seville. If there is somewhere you would like to go and you don't see it here - drop us a line. We also create bespoke adventures to destinations of your choice. Have dream, will travel!
Who Are We?
We are Teresa and Rob. Together we have a combined 50 years of world travel, educational event and trip planning, and a continuing passion for digging deep. More importantly, we are a part of your adventure, companions on your journey and fellow travellers who share your enthusiasm for immersive travel.
