Exploring the Wild South
I have just had the privilege of travelling to Chile and can highly recommend visits to the beautiful island of Chiloe and the rugged beauty of Patagonia to anyone exploring the wild southern regions of South America. Chiloé Island is a large, lush island located off the southern coast of Chile. The waters of the…
It’s a Punt
High monsoon temperatures go hand in hand with high rainfall and very high humidity across Cambodia from April to October. We took a punt and chose November for travelling to Vietnam and Cambodia, aiming for the end of the monsoon and catching the last high-water sailing for our chosen boutique river cruise along the Mekong…
From Seas to Sands
Sometimes the desire to ‘get away from it all’ really does take you places, and my latest travels were no exception. I boarded a luxury Silversea Expedition Cruise in Puerto Williams, Chile, bound for some of the most remote islands in the world, with a sense of adventure that only comes from heading off somewhere…
Rock the Kasbah!
What is a wadi? A medina? World Journeys’ Kate Couling gives meaning to these and other common Arabic terms used throughout North Africa and the Middle East.
Talking about Cuba
For travellers looking for a destination that is charming yet challenging in equal measure, let me tell you about Cuba. Beautiful colonial architecture, colourful classic cars, swaying palm trees and free-flowing rum are all there, along with the sense that you’ve somehow woken up in a different era. On the flip side, Cuba’s economic situation…
The Colours of Alaska
My memories of travel to Alaska are awash with colours, all distinctly beautiful and varying with the seasons. The glaciers, wide open spaces, mountains, wildlife, island-dotted coastlines and extensive backcountry of “The Last Frontier” offer unforgettable experiences whether you choose summer or winter, land or sea. In the nearly endless daylight of summer’s midnight sun,…
More than blossoms – springtime Japan
For many, a bucket list experience is to visit Japan during the springtime ‘sakura’ (cherry blossom) season, but there is so much more to see. Each year in late March, World Journeys operates a small hosted group to experience it all – Cherry Blossom Japan. It all begins in Tokyo, with the contrasting experiences of…
My Morocco
Morocco offers the traveller a unique blend of culture, history, cuisine and natural beauty. Essentially, it’s my kind of travel. From the bustling city of Marrakech to the vast expanse of the Sahara Desert and the coastal town of Essaouira, there’s no shortage of fascinating places to explore. Starting with Marrakech, it’s a vibrant city…
Cape Town to Dar es Salaam
My adventure aboard Rovos Rail was a long time coming. Having booked for 2020, it only became possible to climb aboard in 2022. My chosen route of Cape Town to Dar es Salaam takes just over two weeks to wend its way from South Africa to Botswana, Victoria Falls, Zambia and finally Tanzania. Quite the…
Wild Scotland
When you think of Scottish cities, Edinburgh and Glasgow will probably come to mind. But the country has so much more to offer its visitors, especially for those looking for picturesque landscapes, wildlife and fascinating history amongst the some 790 harsh and often remote islands that lie in Scottish waters. Along with 70 fellow guests,…
Africa on the Horizon
‘Enforced downtime’ is a very glass-half-full way of describing the life of a travel agent in recent times. With business on hold late last year, one of World Journeys’ friends Pam Hardy, of YOU Travel, Levin, seized the opportunity to head back to her favourite destination – Africa. Thrilling wildlife encounters, luxurious safari camps and…
Live from the Hide
Every so often a piece of writing manages to capture perfectly the magic of Africa and its wild places. We share here a piece penned by Dereck Joubert, renowned wildlife filmmaker and CEO of Great Plains Conservation. The scene is set at ol Donyo Lodge, located in over 111,000 hectares of private wilderness in the heart of…
