Learn it, then live it.

  • 1. Learn it

    Before you go, read the story of the country, written by us, in plain English.

  • 2. Live it

    On the ground, each day is a chapter, with the people who lived it.

  • 3. Understand it

    Each evening your host explains what you’ve just seen, and how it fits.

Travel is better when you know what you’re looking at.

Point Travel takes curious, well-travelled people to places with a story worth understanding, and puts them inside it.

The story. Every journey follows a country’s story. You read it before you go, and your host explains it each evening.

The people. Historians, coffee farmers and people who lived through it, met where they live and work.

The care. Eight guests at most, private transport, specialist local guides and a ground team we trust.
