Unforgettable ways to see the world

Make it a ride of a lifetime.

e world we live in is vast and varied.

With so many places to see and quite often, little time to spend there, you want to make the most of your time to allow for more exploring.

However, planes, trains and buses aren’t for everyone so consider the following options for your next getaway.

Helicopter: Canadian Rockies

Experience the dramatic beauty of the Canadian Rockies with a birds-eye view from a chopper. Soar high above as you take in the glittering lakes, glaciers and dramatic mountain peaks. Gliding above snow-covered mountains, you can fly along Alberta’s beautiful Kananaskis Valley and into the UNESCO-listed Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park, home to a breathtaking array of shimmering lakes, plummeting valleys and stunning white-water rapids. Flight times range from as little as 30 minutes to 80 minutes.

Cruising: Europe

It’s no secret that cruising is an exceptional way to see Europe. The hardest option is choosing which region to explore! Visit seaside villages and ancient civilisations in the Greek Isles and Turkey or experience the grandeur of Northern Europe. On any voyage, you’ll visit a variety of cities, with most including the “greatest hits” of cities including Rome, Venice, Barcelona and Athens.

Hiking: Kimberley’s, Australia

The best way to explore the Kimberley’s is by foot. You’ll be able to stop at spectacular swimming holes to recharge and cool down – Bell Gorge and waterfalls, Manning Gorge and Emma Gorge to name but a few. See Indigenous rock art along the way and camp out under the stars at night. Pure magic.

4WD: Africa

Whether you’re exploring the Serengeti National Park or heading down the Atlantis sand dunes, Africa is the one continent that lends itself perfectly to 4 Wheel Driving. With so much off-roading, you need a sturdy car to transport your from A to B and it’s the perfect way to get up-close and personal with any wildlife you may encounter.
