Vietnam/Cambodia: a classic tour with a Mekong River
Cruise
Vietnam and Cambodia are a logical combination. The Mekong
River links the two countries, flowing through the jungles
of Cambodia, past Phnom Penh, Cambodia's capital, before
entering Vietnam in the far south of the country, where
it finally reaches the South China Sea. Culturally, the
countries are surprisingly different, their respective
languages, cuisine and history being quite distinct......our
next tour to Vietnam
Bhutan: Inspirational Bhutan
We take a varied look, much of it
on foot, at this small, strongly Buddhist, Himalayan kingdom.
Bhutan is still a land of mystery which has managed to
retain its culture intact, sandwiched as it is, between
India and China...... our next
tour to Bhutan
Turkey: Istanbul & Cappadocia
This is a 14 days/13 nights tour starting and finishing
in Istanbul. In our 2011 tour we divide our time between
Istanbul and Cappadocia, first exploring the wonderful
city of Istanbul in some detail, largely on foot. We
then take the train east to Goreme in Cappadocia, our
base for 4-5 days of walking...... our
next tour to Turkey
Tanzania Trails & Zanzibar
This fabulous adventure offers a very different take
on the traditional 'safari' to Tanzania. We visit the
world famous Serengeti National Park, The Ngorongoro
Crater both of which are world famous for wildlife,
then the Masai homelands, and as icing on the cake we
visit Zanzibar, the exotic spice island with its ancient
Moorish influences, lovely old buildings and glorious
beaches.....our
next tour to Tanzania
Tastes of Tuscany
This is an 8 days/7 nights tour starting in Siena and
finishing in Chiusi. We take the opportunity to explore
the beautiful Tuscan countryside on foot as well as
some of the most stunning mediaeval towns such as Montalcino,
Pienza and Montepulciano, and as for the cuisine, or
"cucina" - well, say no more ...... our
next tour to Tuscany
