Travel deep into the Sahara desert and explore its raw beauty. Erosion has sculpted a wonderful landscape of sandstone plateaus, deep canyons, and unique rock formations in the Tassili n’Ajjer national park in the south of Algeria. The national park covers an area of approximately 72,000 square kilometers (about 27,800 square miles) and is renowned for its otherworldly landscape. It is the extensive collection of prehistoric rock art found here, though, that made it famous to the Western world in the last decades. It is also the reason why the park was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in the 1980s. There are over 15 000 ancient rock paintings and engravings in the park, some of which are believed to be up to 12,000 years old. These artworks provide valuable insights into the region's history, its ancient inhabitants, and their way of life. They showcase scenes of hunting, dancing, and daily life of the people who once lived in the region. They are considered an important cultural and historical treasure and have contributed to our understanding of the prehistoric Saharan culture.
On this desert expedition we will be accompanied by a local Tuareg team and have the chance to learn more about these mysterious people. They often refer to themselves as Imohag, which means “free people” - the true children of the desert, who have been living here for ages and can navigate the vast desert and its hidden treasures like no one else.

Its inner town, Itchan Kala, became Uzbekistan's first UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990. Inside the mud-brick walls you'll find mosques, madrasas, palaces and minarets packed so tightly that you can walk from one gate to the other in about 15 minutes. People still...

A Cameroon tour delivers more variety in one country than most African itineraries manage across three. Rainforest, volcanic peaks, Sahel savannah, Atlantic beaches and more than 250 ethnic groups sit within a single set of borders - which is why geographers have long called Cameroon "Africa in miniature". It is also one of the continent's least visited destinations, so the crowds you...

A Mozambique tour swaps the safari-vehicle crowds for something rarer: 2,500 kilometres of Indian Ocean coastline, coral reefs that rank among the healthiest in Africa, and an Afro-Portuguese culture you will not find anywhere else on the continent. This is a beach-and-culture destination first, a wildlife one second - and that is exactly why it appeals to travellers who have already ticked off...
