Explorateur Journeys, based in Ramsey, NJ, is showcasing these five memorable family adventures the company has created in incredible parts of the world:

Patagonia Family Expedition – Argentina & Chile
Adventurous families will love the wild majesty of Patagonia! Think easy guided glacier hikes at Perito Moreno, boat rides past icebergs, horseback riding with local gauchos, and wildlife-spotting in Torres del Paine. Comfortable family lodges offer cozy fire-lit evenings, hearty local cuisine, and stunning views that make for lifelong shared memories.

Japan’s Family-Friendly Culture Quest – Tokyo to Kyoto
Perfect for families curious about culture and tradition. Kids will love learning ninja moves in Kyoto, exploring samurai armor in Kanazawa, making their own sushi with master chefs in Tokyo, and soaking in kid-friendly onsen baths in Hakone. Add in high-speed train rides and manga museums for an unforgettable, educational adventure.

Icelandic Road Trip Adventure
It’s a whole outdoor playground of a country! Consider a privately guided expedition with stops at volcanic craters, bubbling geothermal pools, black sand beaches, and hidden waterfalls. Spend time riding Icelandic horses, visit lava caves, and even try whale-watching or glacier walks with expert guides.

Moroccan Caravan Experience
Transport yourself into world of storybook magic from exploring Marrakech’s colorful souks and learning to cook tagine with local chefs to camel rides over golden dunes for an overnight desert camp under the stars. Add guided medina treasure hunts and visits to Berber villages for cultural depth kids and adults will love.

New Zealand Nature & Adrenaline Safari
An epic family-friendly playground, from Hobbiton tours for movie lovers to zip-lining in lush forests and kayaking glowworm caves. Parents and teens can hike through Fiordland’s spectacular scenery while younger kids try farm stays with sheep shearing demos. Safe, clean, and welcoming, New Zealand is the total package.

Explorateur Journeys Launches Gastronomy/Cycling Fusion Experience through Uruguay

Explorateur Journeys has launched Chef On Wheels, a trip infused with special experiences of Uruguayan gastronomy, interactions with local chefs, instruction on traditional dishes blended with an active cycling adventure that gets travelers up close and personal with quaint villages and a traditional slice of life.

The journey begins with insider access to a special winery, where guests can bike trough the charming town of Carmelo, tasting along the way and stopping for a home cooked Uruguayan asado. They’ll enjoy dinner one evening with a celebrated local chef who will prepare a “secret menu” for them based on the “La Cuisine Secret” invitation-only nomadic dining concept that’s become popular with local foodies.

As travelers move on through the country, they’ll shop in a fresh farmers market with a local chef and try their hands at local secret recipes that the chefs will dispel in a gorgeous kitchen, paired with a string of exclusive cocktails.

Back in Montevideo, time will be spent cycling along the beach and into small towns, with access to special art exhibitions along the way and more home cooking in a cozy chef’s kitchen.

The journey rounds out with a cycling and canoeing adventure at the Garzon lagoon, where a boat crossing brings guests to a hidden “Lagoon Shack”, where a local chef prepares lunch and provides an opportunity to mix and mingle with village children who attend special cooking classes designed to help educate the local community.
