Few countries can compete with Mexico when it comes to unleashing the inner Indiana Jones in each of us. Jungle clad temples and abandoned ancient civilisations make way to colonial era towns with cobbled streets and Spanish architecture. This fusion of history has led to Mexico’s unique culture from the art of Frida Kahlo to Oaxaca’s succulent cuisine. Uncover the country’s historical and cultural layers as we journey from the highlands of Mexico City to the jungles and beaches of the Yucatan via the lands of Aztecs, Zapotec, Mayas and Conquistadors.

“Excellent trip which exceeded our expectations. Much of the walking is on open terrain with only a few, predominantly empty, settlements interrupting the vast expanse of the landscape leading to a great feeling of isolation and timelessness. Weather permitting, the views of the snow capped mountains which surround Milam Glacier -Rishi Parvati, Hardeol, Trishuli- and those of the peaks of the Nanda Devi range itself are spectacular and of a similar class to those of Nepal. It is a long two days journeying to the start of the trek at Munsiyari but the scenery from the minibus is lovely and the rail journey to Kathgodam we found an interesting experience - the food and on board service is good. The evening spent at Almora allows time to visit the Nanda Devi temple complex. The first two and last two days of the trek are the hardest involving ascent/descent but in between the walking is relatively straightforward. We felt the trip grading of 4 to be appropriate (but note that this now appears to have changed to 5.)”

“A fantastic introduction to this beautiful country. You pack a huge amount into a short space of time and I left feeling that I wanted to come back and see more. From camel-trekking through a sandstorm to drinking mint tea in our guide's family home, this trip was full of memorable experiences. The people of Morocco were so friendly and welcoming and lots of fun. The scenery was spectacular, especially up in the mountains. I think the view from the gite might be a little slice of heaven!”
