A first for G Adventures as it adds Dominica to its portfolio

G Adventures is launching trips to Dominica for the first time, opening up a new side of the Caribbean destination. Always looking for new ways to innovate and expand its offering, G Adventures is putting Dominica firmly on the adventure map, offering an alternative to traditional Caribbean fly-and-flop or beach holidays.

Long associated with cruise tourism, the new trips shine a light on the island’s rich inland and marine experiences, revealing why Dominica is ideal for premium adventure travellers seeking active experiences and deeper cultural connections.

From lush rainforests and towering waterfalls to volcanic landscapes and extensive hiking trails, the itineraries are designed to showcase the island’s incredible diversity. Experiences range from invigorating hikes and waterfall swims to immersive encounters with local Indigenous communities and the rare opportunity to swim with sperm whales in their natural habitat, one of the only places in the world where this is possible.

Joining G Adventures’ premium active Geluxe travel style, the trips feature upgraded experiences with a focus on physical activity, one-of-a-kind accommodations, elevated dining experiences and deeper connections to community and culture.

Yves Marceau, VP of Product at G Adventures, explained that: “G Adventures has always sought to help travellers see destinations in a new way. We’re incredibly excited to expand our Caribbean offering with Dominica and to shine a light on its incredible natural and cultural richness.”

Marceau continued: “By moving beyond the traditional cruise narrative, we’re helping travellers experience the island more deeply while ensuring tourism revenue reaches local and Indigenous communities.”

Based in Roseau, the eight-day land-focused adventure sees travellers exploring Dominica’s diverse terrain, including a visit to the iconic Trafalgar Falls, where twin cascades tumble into cool natural pools, and hiking to lesser-visited falls such as Middleham Falls, the largest on the island where travellers can swim in the mystical mist-filled basin.

Marine experiences include time at Champagne Beach, famous for its underwater volcanic bubbles, where travellers can paddle and snorkel among vibrant marine life. Inland adventures continue along the Indian River, a mangrove-lined waterway featured in Pirates of the Caribbean.

Travellers will explore Cabrits National Park, home to the historic Fort Shirley Garrison, and enjoy relaxed beachside dining at a local favourite, Keeping it Real. A signature Geluxe “OMG Day” offers two unforgettable options: swimming through the dramatic Titou Gorge followed by a soak in natural hot springs or visiting Spanny and Jacko Falls with optional evening whale watching.

A highlight of the trip is a meaningful cultural experience with the Kalinago people on Dominica’s east coast. Travellers visit the Kalinago Barana Autê model village, participate in traditional cassava bread-making, explore local farms, and walk sections of the Waitukubuli National Trail — supporting G Adventures’ commitment to community tourism
