Wild at Heart

Bags packed, tickets in-hand, you’ve already dashed home to grab that forgotten passport… you’re good to go at last!

And boy have you got a lot of things to look forward to: 6 stops, 2 remarkable continents, how many miles?! 19,072 to be exact.

Buckle up, my friend, because you’re in for one seriously wild ride!

First stop and adventure awaits as you wind your way south through the African wilderness; from the bush to the beach, you won’t be disappointed by all that this truly amazing continent has to offer.

You want wild? Well jump on the Nairobi to Johannesburg Adventure tour that has it by the bucketload! Take 28 days to snap the Big 5 in the Serengeti, soak up (quite literally) awesome Victoria Falls and crash out on the serene shores of Lake Malawi before jumping off in Jo’burg after one last jaunt round the Kruger NP. Woa, you wild thing, you!

You say: “The Okovango Delta in Botswana, drinking a Savanna, watching the sunset and listening to hippos chortling. Absolute bliss!” (Claire Sparks, Facebook)

You’ve made it through the wilderness unscathed (well, fingers crossed!) and you’re ready to explore the beating heart of South Africa: Johannesburg.

What better way to experience the real South African way of life than dumping your bag and leisurely peddle-pushing your way through the winding streets of the western Jo’burg township of Soweto. Give your legs a rest by stopping to meet the locals, hear their stories and soak up the community spirit. Book onto this day trip for the perfect way to round off your time in Africa.

So you’ve made the big leap over to the whirlwind that is Bangkok! What a blinder!

Zoom around in a teetering little tuk-tuk, flip-flop on down to the famous floating market and tip-toe around the array of glistening temples before hitting Bangkok’s infamous nightlife.

All buzzed out? Why don’t you jump on a 20-day tour and escape the bright lights as you roam your way through the blissed-out beauties of Cambodia and Vietnam, hitting all the hotspots (how does Angkor Wat, Ho Chi Minh City, Phnom Penh and Halong Bay sound?) as you go.

A rising star in the Southeast Asian sky, Hanoi is a perfectly blended brew of East-meets-West, with to-die-for street food and a big smack of history and cultural sights to explore.

Get the best of both worlds with the Hanoi and Halong Bay Experience tour as you soak up the city sites, rock climb, BBQ on the beach, sleep in bamboo huts, ride on a traditional Junk boat and glide around secluded lagoons in a kayak. You’ll have to tear yourself away (kicking and screaming) after four dreamy days on this trip.

Get ready for some full on fun as this city is big, bright and bulging with cosmopolitan charisma. Hong Kong can be pretty full on so organisation is key, but hey, that’s what we’re here for!

Why don’t you hot-foot it from Hong Kong to Beijing on the Roam China trip which sweeps you through the country’s ancient and modern lands. From Tai Chi and chopsticks to Terracotta warriors, it’s treat after treat on this tour as you meander around China’s top sites and stunning countryside, finishing off by swapping sizzling Shanghai for the barmy capital, Beijing.

We say: “In Hong Kong the Aqua Bar is the perfect place for evening drinks to bask in the stunning skyline at night”

Beijing may be the final stop on your wild whirlwind around the world but you just cannot go home without visiting the ultimate in Chinese icons: it’s only the Great Wall, of course!

Take one wow day out as you leisurely trek the Wall’s snaking ramparts, enjoying breathtaking views and adrenalin-pumping climbs along the world’s largest man-made structure. We’re certainly impressed! Oh and did we mention that you can do all this from just £24 for a full day?? Talk about going out with a bang!

Oh yes, the green, green grass of home! You’ll be glad to touch down in good old Blighty after your mammoth trip. Be sure to get those snaps up on Facebook and spread your new worldly wisdom with anyone who will listen. And don’t forget: daily moisturising is the key to holding that tan!
