If you prefer lakes and mountains to cities and skyscrapers, our tailor-made trips can take you on outdoor pursuits to the backdrop of the world’s most beautiful natural scenery. Breathe deep the fresh alpine air on mountains tops from the Swiss Alps to Chilean Patagonia, or enjoy watching the sky mirrored in the deep-blue lakes of Scotland or New Zealand.
We can also build outdoor activities into part of your wider trip — a hot-air balloon ride over canyons in South Africa, white-water rafting at the Nile’s source in Uganda or beach hopping in French Polynesia. We've experienced the outdoor activities we offer, and will match the adventure you're after to the right destination for you.
