Expedition

Our Expedition trips are those that really push the boundaries of adventure! These are special departures that get into some incredibly remote and seldom-visted areas of the world, or aim for specific events or festivals. Truly off the beaten track, these are very unique and imaginative itineraries that are as far away from the typical tourist experience as you'll ever get!
