Welcome to Extraordinary Explorations and the CAA Extended Stay Collection!
If you’re looking for an unforgettable travel experience, this is it. Extraordinary Explorations are intimate small-group trips created by dedicated CAA Group Travel Planners, who collaborate with the best local partners in the world. Unique, air-inclusive itineraries are curated to blend cultural immersion, culinary highlights and “like-a-local” insider opportunities, so you enjoy a comfortable balance of sightseeing, location highlights and leisure time.
The CAA Extended Stay Collection offers the best of both worlds. The trip starts with a few days of guided touring with a CAA Host, then you’re on your own, free to explore at your own pace for the next 2-3 weeks before returning home. The memories you make on your special adventure will be priceless.
