Destinations where we offer tailor-made holidays
We offer tailor made holidays to exotic destinations all around the world. Note also that if one of our group tour itineraries suits, we'll be happy to organise this for you on a private basis for you.
Southeast Asia
No visit to Southeast Asia would be complete without exploring amazing Angkor Wat in Cambodia, cruising Halong Bay in Vietnam, discovering Luang Prabang in Laos, relaxing on the beaches of Thailand, taking a hot air balloon ride over the Bagan temples in Myanmar or going wild in the search of orangutans in Borneo.
Indian Subcontinent
It's difficult to see beyond the inimitable Taj Mahal on a first time visit to India but there's plenty else this incredible country has to offer. On the Tear Drop Isle of Sri Lanka you can discover a rich heritage and evocative archaeological sites while the Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal offers incredible trekking and cultural riches.
The Far East
Visit the Far East of Asia on a tailor-made holiday for bundles of unique cultural experiences, fascinating history and charming landscapes. Head to China for the Great Wall and terracotta warriors, journey to Japan for modern cities and ancient traditions, or enjoy a sojourn to South Korea for grand palaces and pop culture.
The Middle East
Explore the Middle East your way whether it's cruising the Nile and marvelling at the Great Pyramids in Egypt or soaking in the Dead Sea and wandering through Petra in Jordan. Take a pilgrimage to Israel and the holiest of lands or head to the northwest corner of Africa for souks, riads and kasbahs in Morocco.
Latin America
Make your own special journey to the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu in Peru, undoubtedly one of South America's biggest attractions. Or you could explore the colonial cities and volcanoes of Ecuador, join the gauchos in the northwest of Argentina, explore the lake district of Chile or go in search of wildlife and adventure in diverse Costa Rica.
Africa
Safari opportunities and outdoor adventure abounds in Africa whether it's roaming the endless plains in search of the Big 5 or getting your adrenaline fix at Vic Falls. Highlights include the Masai Mara in Kenya and the Serengeti in Tanzania, scaling the mighty sand dunes in Namibia and combining with neighbouring Botswana for the Okavango Delta.
Russia & The Trans-Sib
Go hard on culture with a bespoke itinerary through the mighty cities and charming rural towns of Russia. There's also outdoor adventure on offer in the Ural mountains and around the undeniably stunning Lake Baikal. There's always the option to explore Russia by train on the legendary Trans-Siberian Railway and combine with China and Mongolia.
Turkey
Bridging the gap between Asia and Europe, Turkey is home to an abundance of cultural and historical treasures from the exotic city of Istanbul to the Roman ruins of Ephesus. There's also miles and miles of sublime coastline to discover so you can combine culture with a bit of downtime at the beach in Kusadasi, Marmaris or Fethiye.
