Collette Enters 107th Year with 13 New Tours
by Sarah Milner /Collette is entering its 107th year with 13 new tours, bringing the company’s total 2025 – 2026 season offering to 170 tours worldwide.
The family-owned Collette specializes in guided travel, offering tours to all seven continents and five distinct travel styles, including small group touring and river cruises.
The tour operator’s 10 new itineraries include 10 trips being introduced in 2025, as well as three other packages introduced in 2024. More trips for the 2026 season will be announced in the future.
Collette’s new 2025 tours span multiple continents, and includes the new package “Europe: The Grand Tour.” The 14-day itinerary takes guests on a coolcation through Eastern Europe, exploring countries like the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Switzerland, Germany, and Austria.
“The new season brings new tours and new destinations into our lineup,” said CEO Jaclyn-Leibl-Cote. “We’ve added ‘Albania to The Balkans: Coastal Croatia and Legendary Greece’ tour; and launched brand new programs like a Namibia and South Africa tour as well as regional deep dives like ‘Sequoia and Kings Canyon’ and ‘Utah’s Mighty Five.'”
The upcoming season addresses crowding and overtourism concerns with trips during low-season months and to secondary cities like Cornwall, England and Ise Shima, Japan.
“I’m honored to be leading our team as we usher in our 107th year of adventure. Travel continues to evolve as does the modern traveler,” added Leibl-Cote. “To stay relevant, we listen closely to our customers, partners and employees worldwide so that we can continually innovate and lead the way in this guided travel evolution.”
