National Geographic Day Tours offer a wide array of topics, including nature, conservation, photography, culture, gastronomy and history. Most trips feature local specialists — such as archaeologists, marine biologists, chefs, farmers, photographers, historians, scholars and more — who will illuminate each experience with their expertise and storytelling.
Here are a few of the amazing new land tours.
For food and baking lovers:
- Naples, Italy: The History of Pasta — Join a local historian in the green hills of Gragnano, the global epicenter of dried pasta, and visit a reconstructed water mill rarely open to the public. Visit a family-run pasta factory, hear about their family story, make fresh pasta by perfecting the knead and roll technique, and enjoy lunch made with ingredients sourced from the garden. This tour was inspired by the National Geographic Magazine article, “The Twisted History of Pasta,” which points to 13th century references to pasta dishes, including macaroni, ravioli and more.
- Paris, France: Baguette and Eclair Initiation with a French Master Baker — Take a hands-on lesson in traditional French baking taught by a French master baker and learn the art of making a superior dough, shaping and baking delectable treats, and about the importance of bread and pastries to French cultural heritage. This tour was inspired by the National Geographic Magazine article, “Explore the World Through 9 Different Breads.”
For marine life enthusiasts:
- Lisbon, Portugal: A Visit to the Oceanarium — Gain an in-depth understanding of the ocean through this tour of the Lisbon Oceanarium, led by a marine biologist with specialist knowledge on the importance of our oceans and their biodiversity. Go behind the scenes and learn about the animals, feeding techniques and engineering behind the aquariums, as well as the Oceanario Foundation’s collaboration projects with National Geographic to raise awareness about the protection of our oceans and the marine species that call them home.
For city explorers:
- New York: Hudson Yards, Where Sustainability Meets Urban Design — Marvel at the engineering which built this neighborhood above the railway yards in New York City and meet and talk with the design team, including the chief engineer. Visit areas not open to the general public, including a section of the roof with a private observation deck for views of the New York City skyline unique to this location. Inspiration for this tour is from a National Geographic Magazine article, “The New New York City Skyline” in which Hudson Yards is referenced.
For art and architecture aficionados:
- Barcelona, Spain: Homage to Miró — Discover the artworks of Miró and their interaction with the spaces created to house them by architect Josep Lluis Sert. Miró’s work – paintings, sculptures, murals, paper and lithographs – was inspired by artists and poets he met in his journeys throughout Europe, including Pablo Picasso. Visit the Fundacio Miró before it opens to the public and learn from architectural and art restoration specialists with in-depth knowledge of Miró’s work and Sert’s architecture. This tour was inspired by an article in National Geographic Magazine titled, “Homage to Catalonia – and Miró.”
