OUR REGIONS

Three regions, one standard

Wherever you travel with us, the promise is the same: every experience is run or vetted by our own people on the ground. Here is what each region is known for.

United Arab Emirates

Dubai’s record-breaking skyline and golden dunes, Abu Dhabi’s Grand Mosque and culture, and the quiet coves of Ras Al Khaimah. Arabian heritage meets modern wonder.

Azerbaijan

Where Europe meets Asia. Baku pairs a UNESCO-listed old city with flame-shaped towers, framed by the Caspian Sea and the Caucasus mountains beyond.

China

From Chengdu’s pandas and fiery Sichuan flavours to the surreal sandstone pillars of Zhangjiajie and Chongqing’s mountain cityscape – Southwest China is pure discovery.

You can pay securely online, and most experiences offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start time. Any exceptions are shown clearly on the trip page before you book.
