Leave the flocks of tourists behind and journey into some of the world's remotest regions on a tailor-made trip that's off the beaten track. We're every bit as intrepid as you feel, and we spend time discovering the lesser known areas of our destinations, finding a richness of the culture that's matched by the lack of tourists.
We bottle this first-hand knowledge into organizing trips that take you to untouched corners of the world, sometimes only accessible by boat or light aircraft. Trek in one of the largest mountainous rainforests remaining in Africa. Cross Siberia in Russia to 'the Land of Fire and Ice', so named for its active ring of volcanoes. Cruise through the icy landscape of the Antarctic Peninsula, passing penguin colonies. Places where the remoteness will live up to your sense of adventure.
