Hello winter!
We love winter because it offers experiences that are impossible at other times of year, such as travelling to the desert or seeing thousands of wildebeest giving birth. Here are 3 winter adventures to start your year by discovering extraordinary places.
Featured Winter Trips: Egypt
We knew Egypt’s Western Desert, having operated trips there in the 2000s, but considered it a “minor” desert, a complement to the Nile Valley. What a mistake!
Now we have returned there and what we have found far exceeds our expectations: It is not a complement, but a (magnificent) desert journey in itself.
✔️ 10-day group trip
✔️ Departures 3 FEB > 10, 31 MAR
✔️ From 1850€
We offer a 4×4 safari through the White Desert and Great Sand Sea, alternating wild camping with established camps in the oases. 10-day trip. Departures 3 February, 10 and 31 March.
The landscapes rival Libya’s and Algeria’s, but require neither days of travel nor domestic flights to reach. We discover some of the Sahara’s finest places without a complex expedition and in relative comfort.
Featured Winter Trips: Tanzania
The migration reaches the Serengeti: a great time for predators.
An exciting moment: in mid-February, wildebeest and zebra herds move across the Ndutu plains. Wildebeest calves are born, action is guaranteed, and predators stalk this vast moving pantry amid a spectacular explosion of life.
✔️ Travel to Tanzania
✔️ 9-day trip
✔️ Only departure: 10 February
✔️ From 3880€
A wildlife spectacle with front-row seats, also including a spectacular walking safari in Serengeti National Park

A five-day getaway to Lapland: Northern Lights and Nature.
An immersion in Lapland’s winter nature, with opportunities to see the northern lights. From a welcoming hotel in Inari (69ºN), we discover the forests and lakes of the taiga.
At day’s end, conditions permitting, we go to designated spots to watch the Northern Lights. Statistically, we are in one of the best places to see them.
✔️ Trip to Finland
✔️ 5-day trip
✔️ Departures 4 JAN > 8, 15, 22 FEB > 1, 8, 15, 22 MAR
✔️ From 1485€

Silence, the vivid colours of the boreal forest and the northern lights will accompany us on our journey.
