Where

New Zealand, Peru, Ecuador, Jordan, Kenya, Nepal, Greenland and more, where possible looking for itineraries along less well worn paths.

Style

Maximum group size 12 people.

Minimum Age

Depending on the trip and levels of experience, usually 14+ as generally trips require certain skills and stamina. Would be more doubtful about younger children because of the social aspects of the holidays.

Accommodation

Varies from trip to trip but usually camping while out in the hills. In towns use medium range hotels, avoiding tourist places. In Nepal use lodges and in Iceland guesthouses, farmhouses and school houses.

Length of Trips

From eight days in Slovakia, 10 to, say, 14 days in Iceland, and 29 days in Pakistan. Average 18 days.

Sample Price

Around £750 for eight days in Slovakia, to ?3,000 for 24 days in Ecuador including the Galpagos Islands.
