	High Arctic Canada - Wildlife and photography 10-24 May 2012 - 14 days £4,800 To experience Arctic wildlife, up-close and first-hand is thoroughly exciting and the only real way of doing this is to immerse yourself in their natural environment. We do just this, going way beyond the bounds of tourism.We will be venturing into extremely remote environments, where others simply don't go. These are areas where Jim McNeill has guided the BBC to make wildlife films and where you may meet the occasional scientist.

"The trip was well organised and had a good mix of adventure and comfort level. I'd certainly recommend this trip for people looking for a polar experience. Jim's experience in the field gives one a solid sense of comfort and underlying confidence, something that's essential on a trip like this. Ian's eagle eye and knowledge of the natural environment is exceptional, his helpful nature was extremely well appreciated." Cheryl E

	Jordanian Desert - The Silk Road 5 - 19 November 2011 - 15 days £3,400 Our expedition will uncover an ancient and forgotten part of the Silk Road trading route across Jordan. This route was abandoned around 300 years ago because so many of the trading camel trains were attacked and robbed; it was deemed too dangerous.

We will be camping in Bedouin tents, moving by foot with camels taking our equipment and gear. .
