View guidance for travellers, including a message from our CEO and travel advice.

With Desire To Travel, you’re not just a guest, you’re part of a journey thoughtfully hosted by people who care. Every detail is considered: from logistics to local insights, to moments that surprise and delight along the way.

Our experiences are for travellers who want to truly feel a place, not just visit it. Because for us, travel isn’t just about the destination, it’s about the moments you take home.

Desire To Travel is a boutique Australian tour operator specialising in personally hosted small-group journeys through Malta, Sicily, Sardinia and Turkey. Every journey is unhurried, immersive and shaped by the people who live there, from local guides with deep cultural knowledge to boutique accommodation, artisans and regional producers. We believe travel should go beyond ticking off sights: it’s about meaningful encounters, stories and memories that stay with you long after the journey ends.

Groups are intentionally small, ensuring every moment is personal and every experience seamless. Whether wandering the hidden streets of Valletta, tasting wines in Sardinia, exploring Sicily’s dramatic coastline or discovering Turkey’s rich history, we craft itineraries that reveal the authentic heart of each destination.

For those who prefer quieter, more reflective travel, our Off Season Traveller experiences let you explore in shoulder periods, when destinations are at their most authentic. Fewer crowds, deeper engagement and a more refined pace make every experience richer.
