Kilimanjaro climb, Rongai route
Most memorable will be reaching the summit of Kilimanjaro, not without the expert help from the guides, especially Dae. The team were fantastic, helpful, professional, considerate, and made everything as comfortable as possible, they were brilliant.  (more)
From US $1240 - US $1930 excluding flights
Antarctic diving expedition
All of it was memorable, but if I had to pick it would be my first sight of Antarctica which was at sunrise, wow! And my 30 minute dive with a leopard seal. But it was all amazing. (more)
From €5190 - €7650 excluding flights
Arctic sailing voyages, Spitsbergen
Simply stunning. Quite the most inspiring vacation I have ever been on. I would recommend it to anyone.  (more)
From £1290 excluding flights
Kilimanjaro Climb, Serengeti safari and Zanzibar
Absolutely amazing - super balance of safari, mountain climbing and relaxing at the beach in one trip. Don't think it can be beaten!  (more)
From US $4380 - US $4900 excluding flights
Antarctica cruise, with diving & climbing options
The very first Antarctic landing was a photographer's feast that was totally mindblowing at such an early stage of the trip. (more)
From US $6090 - US $10850 excluding flights
Yukon dog sledding vacation, Canada
The dogs are just incredible... athletic, fascinating to watch, and beautiful. Our guide Laird was fantastic as were all the other people at the ranch... I had a fabulous time. Pushed my limits... this has been 'one' of the best vacations I have been on. (more)
From CA $1328 excluding flights
Husky safari in Norway
The whole experience was very memorable and exciting, from arriving at Ivalo airport in - 30 c, the accommodation at the Husky Lodge is very special, the dogs amazing and the mushing both adrenalin bursting and tranquil. This vacation was a 'once in a lifetime' except that we will do it again!  (more)
From £2695 including UK flights
Madagascar rafting expedition
Most obviously just the many people we met. Everybody says it but it really is true, what a lovely lovely bunch of people to have had the privilege to meet. On the wildlife front, I think the spitting cobra trumped even the komodo dragons! (more)
From US $2785 excluding flights
Motorbike tours in Romania
Riding in the snow was the most memorable part... Awesome.  (more)
From €989 excluding flights
Kayaking vacation in Indonesia
Far too many to mention, but I'll have a go: sleeping on deserted beaches, a school of dolphins passing just in front of our kayak, seeing a shark while snorkelling, the sound of two very large komodo dragons running through the undergrowth in our direction, great food and an outstanding local guide.  (more)
From US $1750 excluding flights
Everest hiking vacation
Awe-inspiring mountains, glorious sunsets and beautiful views from the moment you woke to the moment you went to bed...11/10! I cannot praise the organisation, leadership, care and ethos of this company highly enough.  (more)
From US $2160 excluding flights
Canoeing vacations in British Columbia
Close up humpbacks, hot tub in the woods, and float plane flight to the glaciers was the most exciting part. (more)
From CA $1995 - CA $3850 excluding flights
