Adventure travel

Are you a bit bored with your nine-to-five routine? Have a look at our exciting range of holidays and decide what type of adventure you'd like.

Activity holidays

Our activity holidays are for everyone! We have a huge variety of water, snow, or desert holidays. We'll take you scuba diving in the Red Sea or kayaking in Canada. If you prefer snow, you can try skiing or climbing up and snowboarding in the Alps. For those who like warmer weather, we also have sandboarding (the desert version of skateboarding).

Polar expeditions

Take a cruise to Antarctica or the northern Arctic; explore a land of white natural beauty and wonderful wildlife. Our experts will explain everything about the two poles as you watch the penguins in Antarctica or whales and polar bears in the Arctic.

Cultural journeys

Our cultural journeys will help you discover ancient civilisations: India, Thailand, Egypt and many more. Visit temples, palaces, and ancient ruins – just remember to bring your camera! Get to know local ways of life by exploring markets, trying exotic foods, and meeting local people.

Trekking tours

We have trekking holidays to famous places such as Machu Picchu or the Everest Base Camp Trek. You don't need to be very sporty, just fairly fit. Climbing up the mountains might be exhausting, but you'll have a great time enjoying nature with a group of new friends. The holidays include camping, and we'll transport the tents for you!

Wildlife holidays

We organise small-group tours to get closer to nature in Africa, Asia or South America. Go on safari in Africa and watch lions and giraffes. Meet the famous turtles of the Galapagos Islands. Look for tigers in India or take an elephant safari in Sri Lanka.

The COVID-19 pandemic could cut up to 50 million jobs worldwide in the travel and tourism industry. This is according to the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC). They said that the tourism industry could shrink by up to 25 per cent, as many people were staying at home and not travelling. Many people cannot travel as more and more countries are taking actions to fight COVID-19, including closing borders, requiring people self-quarantine for 14 days after arriving in a country, and banning flights from other countries. The head of the WTTC said that the pandemic “clearly presents a significant threat to the industry as a whole, to those employed within it, and those wishing to continue travelling”.

The tourism industry makes up 10 per cent of the world's economy and jobs. It is one of the industries that are hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. Businesses such as airlines, cruise ships and hotels have suffered big losses. Many flight companies are scared that their businesses will close. World-famous tourist sites and destinations are deserted and empty. Many sporting events have been canceled including the 2020 Summer Olympics held in Tokyo as well as many concerts and festivals. This could cause so many companies, restaurants, shops and cafés to go out of business as tourists stay away from crowded places. Tourism is a key industry in many parts of the world. The WTTC said that tourism would take 10 months to recover after the pandemic.
