Kayaking is a fantastic way to discover the unique beauty of Antarctica, where you’ll enjoy incredible encounters with wildlife and come across towering icebergs.

Canada is one of those countries blessed with stunning landscapes, from sparkling emerald lakes to towering mountain peaks, lush forests, and frozen glaciers. Here, you can marvel at the breathtaking Niagara Falls on a Niagara Falls tour, hike in the Rockies, or hunt the captivating Northern Lights.
Canada is also famous for its winter sports. You can ski or snowboard in Banff’s Sunshine Village or Quebec’s Mont Tremblant. Whistler is also a popular destination for skiing, having hosted the 2010 Olympic Games. While the Rockies is Canada’s most popular place for hiking, thrill-seeking hikers should conquer the cliffs of Gros Morne National Park. The gorgeous park is full of natural wonders, including the fascinating red rock of the Tablelands.
- Burma
Burma offers a wealth of incredible adventures. Located in Southeast Asia, it’s a haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Popular activities include Burma jungle trekking expeditions, diving at Shark Cave, and rock climbing in Hpa-An.
