What travelers are saying

"A Culture Trip curated trip is a must for anyone burnt out planning their own trips or going to a remote or unfamiliar area. Having a local insider was the highlight of the trip. From the moment we landed to the moment we had to go through security to leave, we were completely taken care of. Our insider gave us great recommendations for restaurants and was very adaptable to any situation that arose."

What travelers are saying

"I have travelled with ROW numerous times, including four trips on the Rogue River. Every trip has been wonderful and every person associated with ROW has been nice, knowledgeable, professional and fun. The Rogue is a great river and the trip is an excellent one for two people or a large group—and I have done both. I’ve taken both of my kids, one time each, and have organized groups of colleagues twice; most recently in 2019 when 14 of us gathered. The guides at ROW are great and help to make the trip very enjoyable. The scenery, lodging and the wonderful outdoors including warm air and refreshing water, make for a wonderful escape from the everyday routine. The fact that this trip offers beds and indoor plumbing is a nice benefit and allows those who have an aversion to camping a chance to see the wilderness. I have recommended ROW and the Rogue trip more times than I can count and my group has already reserved our trip for 2021. What are you waiting for?"

"The food and entertainment were exceptional! Such a professional staff providing top notch service! The entertainment was different each night throughout the entire trip. Also, the chef was a former Food Network Chopped Champion delivering a variety of delicious options, including desserts! Loved the cooking class for our day at sea! This is a new ship with beautiful cabins and common areas. There was plenty of space to meet with friends, enjoy happy hour and take in the fabulous views at every port! Every day the crew was helpful and positive providing details about excursions and ports. There was so much to see and a welcome ship to come back to share each day's experience."
