Peregrine Adventures new Limited Edition experiences for 2019 and 2020.






From Christmas in Bethlehem to a one-off tour marking the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, Peregrine Adventures has revealed a suite of new Limited Edition experiences in 2019 and 2020.

With only one or two departures on each trip, Peregrine's Limited Edition tours live up to their name, offering only a small group of 12 or less travellers the chance to join each special experience.

Brett Mitchell said Peregrine's Limited Edition tours were not the sort of trips you would find in an app or guidebook.


"Often centred around a moment in history or a natural phenomenon, our Limited Edition tours offer our customers the chance to combine a special interest with their love of travel. Led by expert local leaders, the bespoke tours offer the best possible immersion in the place and occasion," Brett Mitchell, Regional Director Asia Pacific for Intrepid Group.

"Wine connoisseurs won't be able to resist the chance to discover Georgian wine culture which dates back more than 8000 years, while history buffs won't want to miss our special tour to Berlin that coincides with the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. For something extra special at Christmas time there are two new tours including an Orthodox Christmas in Ukraine's highlands or the chance to go back to where it all began, a magical Christmas in Bethlehem."

Peregrine's new Limited Edition trips include:

Northern Peru & 1 Day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
