In a remote wilderness far from the modern world, things we'd normally take for granted become the ultimate luxury. Delicious, freshly cooked meals eaten under the stars. Hammocks slung in the deep shade of a tree to snooze away the heat of the day with a good book. A glass of whisky round a campfire at the end of the day.

Proper mobile safaris offer a rare opportunity to strip life back to a level of intelligent simplicity. To leave behind everything that isn't essential, and focus the mind on the things that really count.

And of course the stars of these trips are the people who make them happen: guides who know the ground like the backs of their hands, cooks and camp crew who set up your home from home each night.

These days we offer a wonderful selection of expeditionary trips from old-schoold mobile safaris in Africa to Camel and Yak-led journeys in Mongolia and Bhutan to superb journeys to explore the deserts and mountains of Morocco. Further south we have some wonderful ways to experience Namibia's deserts, while in the Himalayas we offer treks and walks to get you into these dramatic mountains in style.
