Welcome To Our Extraordinary World

Our passion for travel dates back over four decades and defines our style: exciting, adventurous, cultural and one of discovery. Since that time, we have created and expanded our portfolio to incorporate a collection of exciting and less travelled destinations, from the Polar Regions to the heights of the Himalaya.

Since our beginnings we have provided outstanding adventures to the far remote corners of the world specialising in small group destinations and places that are different, sometimes a little off the beaten track, but always fascinating, educational and above all enjoyable for those journeying with us.

Our adventures offer you the chance to fully immerse yourself in the culture and natural world. And we believe these authentic interactions allow us to better understand, appreciate and protect the world in which we live in.

TOUR REVIEWS

Wendy Harvey Oct/Nov 2023

Madagascar A Lost World

From day 1 The scenery was amazing from dry forests to rainforests, sapphire mines to rice paddy’s, beautiful coastal areas to mountains & chaotic villages in between. We saw the many different Malagasy people & were given an insight into how they live, their culture & traditions. We saw many different birds, reptiles & of course lemurs, from the friendly to the elusive. Our guides & drivers were wonderful & very knowledgeable. Sue Werner from Adventure Associates accompanied us & made sure everything ran smoothly & we didn’t miss out on anything. She even arranged extra sails so we could experience areas from the water as we were only a group of 4 we weren’t hurried so could really appreciate this magnificent country. I’ve had a wonderful 30 days & will treasure the memories forever.

Madagascar A Lost World

We have just completed a 30 day tour of Madagascar with Adventure Associates. What an amazing time it has been with our thanks going to the guides and drivers. We have felt safe at all times. They have been professional and friendly and have shared their knowledge of this wonderful country, its wildlife and landscapes. Thank you for the memorable experiences!
