      For us, it’s the little details that are important. A picnic and a view laid out for you as you crest a high Himalayan pass on a trek through Nepal. A van and mechanic ready to support you as you tackle a gnarly mountain bike route in the Western Cape. A crackling fire and a glass of Malbec waiting for you as you reach your luxury private wilderness camp after a day riding the Patagonian steppe on horseback.

      A love of the Great Outdoors is hard-wired into all true explorers. Many of our destinations offer fabulous possibilities for being active outdoors. Imagine wild swimming from a seaplane in a backcountry lake in the Chilean Andes, diving the planet’s most biodiverse reefs in Raja Ampat, or crossing some of Africa’s rawest and most spectacular terrain on a camel-supported trek through northern Kenya.
