There are few badges of honour quite so reliable as Unesco’s seal of approval. Most of our trips come across at least one World Heritage Site, be it natural wonders or historical monuments, but these are the tours that feature an abundance of places featured on the Unesco list.

Epic Morocco

Our comprehensive 11-day tour of Morocco showcases the nation’s remarkable diversity of incredible destinations, from ancient cities to archeological sites, snow-capped mountains and barren deserts. The first Unesco World Heritage Site we’ll visit is the Roman ruins of Volubilis (one) on day three. The next day we’ll explore the amazing medina of Fes (two), which is the closest travel gets to transporting you back in time. You’ll have to traverse the Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert before seeing another Unesco site on day nine. That’s when we visit the extraordinary Ksar of Ait-Ben-Haddou (three) en route to Marrakech, where you’ll get an incredible street food tour of the old medina (four).

Seductive Southern Italy

Italy is actually the most Unesco-listed country on Earth, largely thanks to its blend of historically significant sites and the diversity of its landscapes. Our 10-day tour of Southern Italy features a handful of the country’s 58 sites, starting with the historic centre of Naples (one). You’ll get a guided street food tour of its incredible narrow streets, featuring at least a slice or two of amazing Neapolitan pizza. From there we’ll explore the Amalfi Coast (two) by road and by boat, before heading inland to the ancient hilltop town of Matera (three), made famous by Bond film No Time to Die (2021). The last Unesco site on this trip is by far the most adorable. The quirky trulli huts of Alberobello (four) are incredibly easy on the eye, but these dry-wall structures are also a fascinating remnant of ancient building techniques.
