Burma

Adventure holidays don't come much better than those in Burma. Take a trip back in time to a bygone age and visit this beautifully preserved, picturesque country for adventure tours of a lifetime. Years of isolation has meant that this alluring country has retained the majority of its cultural heritage and a visit here will involve plenty of fascinating exploration.

Take in the splendid cities of Rangoon and Bago, take a trek to the magnificent Golden Rock of Kyaiktiyo and make the trip to the northern region of Pagan for one of the finest archaeological sites around. Your adventure holiday can be completed with a visit to the ancient capital of Mandalay and a trip to the beautiful site of Shan State and Inle Lake.

Iran

Alternatively, discover the hidden, mysterious world of Iran. The friendly and endearing warmth of the locals in combination with the surrounding beauty of the landscape make Iran one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. Indeed, there is certainly plenty to see and do here whether you take in the ancient city of Persepolis, the sacred Zoroastrian Fire Temple of Yazd or the splendid holy city of Qom.

However, there are adventure tours available where you get to see a different side of the country, meet the real locals, pass time with some authentic nomads and discover the refinement and colour of beautiful Islamic cities and age old Persian ruins.

Cambodia

Cambodia is another unusual country full of adventure, history and beauty. Here you can take a tour of the splendid temples of Angkor Wat, sample the sights of colonial Kompong Cham and Phnom Penh or experience some authentic Cambodian village life complete with real home-cooking. Alternatively, take some time out on the glorious beaches of Sihanoukville.

The laid-back charm and warmth of the local people will make you feel right at home, giving you the encouragement and freedom to really explore this fascinating region. Indeed, your Cambodian adventure is sure to be one of the greatest experiences of your life.

Jordan

With the magnificent city of Petra, beautifully themed in a rose-red and the ancient Roman city of Jerash, Jordan makes the perfect destination for a week of adventure. Highlights will include 'floating' in the Dead Sea and snorkelling among the glorious coral reefs and clear waters of the famous Red Sea.

Morocco

However, for romance there is perhaps nowhere finer than Morocco. A fascinating multi-cultural country, made up of African, Moslem, Berber and European cultures, Morocco is also one of the most colourful, exotic and scenic countries in the world. Visit the timeless mud-brick kasbahs, relax among the sand dunes of the beautifully natural coastline or hike through the snow-capped mountains along the back roads between Marrakech and Casablanca.

From wildlife safaris to trekking tours and from cultural trips to overland expeditions, get to the heart of the countries and discover a whole new experience.
