ASIA
REAL Asia
MOZAMBIQUENot only is Mozambique really fun to say out loud (try it and you’ll be provided with endless fun) but it’s also incredibly beautiful, and the perfect place to explore.
We are
(and REALLY love ASIA!)
REAL GAPEXPERIENCETo dearest traveller,
We have a lot of feelings for Asia. Could it be considered obsessive to love Asia as much as we do? Possibly… The food, the sights, the culture; it’s truly amazing!
Thailand is probably the dreamiest place on this planet. Shut your eyes and picture this: sunshine, fun times galore and noodle dishes which make you want to leap in pure joy. Cambodia’s an explorer’s dream – Angkor Wat’s been sitting in Siem Reap for thousands of years and it’s still super popular. Tick the Taj Mahal off your bucket list, and if you want to get off the beaten track, make sure you check out Laos, Asia’s ‘hidden’ gem!
We’re also loving the Great Wall of China – it’s an absolute babe, Halong Bay in Vietnam is a dreamboat and frankly, orang-utans could swing all day in front of our eyes and we’d be mesmerised.
So scratch those itchy feet and get going, traveller. You don’t want to miss out on this!

STYLE?Style: we all have it in abundance (our mums on the other hand, questionable) - but when it comes to travel, we’re all so different.
If you’re looking for adventure, our experience trips are the way to go, and the Thailand Experience is the perfect place to start. You’ll explore the country from top to bottom and hit a Full Moon Party (hello!).
Want to spend more time in one place? Volunteer. You’ll really get the chance to get your face stuck into community life: you’ll be smiling at the locals, stuffing your chops full of local grub and pulling faces with excitement 24/7.
If you really want to go full out, why not put a load of our epic trips together? We can help you design the itinerary of a lifetime, easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Whatever you’re looking for we’ve got it covered

CHINAA Really Big Wall. Snazzy Cities. Noodle Central
From buzzin’ Beijing to the greatest wall that’s probably ever existed, China’s one cool chick. She’s feisty and super popular, in fact, 1.4 billion people think she’s pretty swish; it’s the most populated country in the world. With a crackin’ cuisine like theirs it’s not hard to see why – her ‘spring rolls (obvs) bring all the boys to the yard’. Mmmm noodles, get in my face!
