Benin, a small country in West Africa open to Gulf of Guinea at its southern tip, an ethnic mosaic that preserves Indigenous traditions and languages despite the effects of French colonisation. Benin is a place seemingly frozen in time, with very little tourism, a painful history of slavery and a long road to development. It is also the birthplace of voodoo.
Oman It is one of those countries you hardly notice but never forget. Sparsely populated (just over three million inhabitants) yet vast, it is a remarkable place, and not only for the variety and richness of its pristine landscapes. 80% of territory is desert and where we can find authentic Bedouin communities, better known as desert dwellers.
Albania, a country that until the 1990s turned its back on Europe under the threat of an invasion that never came. Now it is moving swiftly towards the future. South of Tirana discover Albania’s monuments and history. Ancient villages of Ottoman origin, well preserved and declared World Heritage by the UNESCO . Citadels, archaeological sites and ancient historic centres delight history and architecture enthusiasts.
Would you like to discover Albania? We have departures in September and October, as well as a special 10-day New Year trip.

Guatemala is a country that, despite its small size, is rich in history, culture and a variety of landscapes hard to find elsewhere. Its scenery combines tropical forests, lakes and volcanoes to create Dream images, alongside its colourful indigenous markets and Mayan ruins.
In this post, we hope to inspire you with Instagram images showing places we visit on our routes through Guatemala so that you can picture yourselves, even for a moment, in this wonderful country.
One, two, three and shoot; I think this is a good one. We’ll see when I download them. The more I look at them, the more I like them; I find it hard to delete any. Choose five for the competition, but… on what basis? Postcards or stories?
