Amalfi Coast

Italy

For that perfect mix of spectacular landscapes, pastel-hued coastlines and velvety cannoli, it’s time to book an adventure to the gorgeous region of Campania.

It’s no surprise that this patch of paradise has inspired some of the world’s best artists and writers for centuries. Delving into the region’s rich history, we visit the preserved ruins of Herculaneum and one of Europe’s most compelling UNESCO archaeological sites – Pompeii.

No trips to Italy are complete without exploring the breath-taking Amalfi Coastline along the ‘Path of the Gods’ trail. Walking past fragrant citrus groves to the fabled towns of Positano and Ravello, be sure to make a gelato pit stop at one of their cinematic piazzas for a true taste of la dolce vita.

Gardens of Marrakesh

Morocco

From intricate ancient medinas and heady spice markets to towering sand dunes in the Sahara Desert, Morocco’s wonderfully contrasting landscapes are just begging to be explored. And what better place to start your Moroccan adventure than the ancient city of Marrakesh.

If you can tear yourself away from the mesmerising souks in Djemaa el Fna, the main square of Marrakesh and heart of the city, our trips take you on an epic camel ride across the Sahara, with visits to the striking Roman ruins of Volubilis and Todra Gorge.

For those wanting an immersive experience on a road less travelled, why not enjoy walking from a remote Berber community towards the High Atlas Mountains and take a mint tea break basking in the beauty of the snow-capped peaks with your local leader.

Parthenon Temple in Athens

Greece

Discover the cradle of civilisation on one of our trips to Athens. The past seamlessly embraces present in this ancient city as breath-taking Byzantine ruins sitting proudly alongside vibrant street art and hip souvlaki hideout bars.

Delving into the city’s most spectacular gems from the Zappeion National Gardens to the towering Acropolis, our trips also explore off the beaten track roads to the rugged East Aegean coast and remote villages on the island of Evia.

Capture the best highlights of ancient Greece with stops at the archaeological site of Ancient Corinth, shipwrecks found near the Peloponnese islands and visits to Ancient Olympia – the site of the first Olympic Games.

Apart from the beautiful remnants of ancient civilisations gone by, you can’t miss the culinary revolution happening among Athens city streets. Although traditional Greek fare still holds sway, new pop-ups fusing Lebanon, Cyprus and Istanbul flavours into the city’s cuisine is not to be missed.

Waterfall in the Costa Rica jungle

Costa Rica

Christopher Columbus coined Costa Rica the ‘Rich Coast’ and for good reason, as its teeming ecosystem accounts for an astonishing 5% of all the world’s flora, fauna and wildlife.

Whether you’re looking to catch glimpses of howler monkeys swinging from the treetops; turtle hatchings across white sandy beaches; or Blue morpho butterflies landing on the serene canals of Tortuguero National Park, Costa Rica is any wildlife enthusiast’s dream.

On our adventure trips to Costa Rica, be prepared for whitewater rafting on the Pacuare River, exhilarating hikes in Arenal National Forest Park and zip-lining through the lush rainforest of Sarapiquí. Staying primarily at privately owned lodges, this gives travellers the perfect opportunity to unwind after a packed day visiting the country’s most spectacular landscapes, including lava fields, cloud forests and motorboat tours through lush mangroves.
