About

GeoCultura offers an Isles of Scilly experience with a difference. You’ll enjoy small group, leisurely guided walks from local experts, (maximum 10 people) in areas such as archaeology, geology, history, ornithology, gardens, lighthouses and shipwrecks and at least one pre-dinner talk and one or more private boat trips. Hear the fascinating stories of the islands that make up their history. Enjoy a private guided tour of Tresco Abbey Gardens with head gardener, Andrew Lawson, and a day exploring St Agnes with Dr. Vickie Heaney, expert ornitholigist who works with Scilly Wildlife Trust monitoring and protecting the rare birds that visit the islands. 

Costs include four or five nights’ stay at the 4-star, award-winning Star Castle Hotel on St Mary’s, with a la carte dinner every night in the Castle or Conservatory restaurant and a range of guided activities and island-hopping across Scilly, in the company of GeoCultura's tour host and knowledgeable local guides who call the islands home.

Our small group holidays on Scilly have plenty of flexibility, with options for each day, with mostly private boat trips to three or four different islands to see seabirds and wildlife, flora and fauna. The itinerary will be flexible to take account of the weather and tides, and the interests of the group. 

Solo travellers welcome – small single supplement for double ensuite room, rather than a single.  

Ideal for first-time visitors to the Scillies who like walking each day, but at a gentle pace. We guarantee to provide some special insight into these magical islands.
