The destinations that guarantee some breathing space



01

Namibia

This country is so far away from the rest of the world that it has its own species of animals. Discover the vast dunes of Sossusvlei by hot air balloon, venture along the Kunene River and travel to remote mountain valleys, which are home to the Himba tribe, the last true nomadic people in Africa.

02

Antarctica

Follow in the first steps of the explorers and travel to the Great White Continent. This land of extraordinary landscapes comes with snow-capped mountains, statuesque icebergs and cobalt blue water. Step into a Zodiac or kayak and discover the waterways filled with penguins, seals and whales. An Antarctica cruise is definitely one for the bucket list.

03

Oman

The storybook land of desert forts, camel treks and Bedouin tribes appears lightyears away from its glittering neighbour, Dubai. Get lost among the rolling dunes during the day, then spend the night at a Bedouin camp under the stars. “In the desert I found a freedom unattainable in civilization,” wrote explorer Wilfred Thesiger in 1959. One look at this fairy tale landscape and we’re sure you’ll agree.

04

Bolivia

For one of the most remarkable vistas on Earth, travel to the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia. Take a 4WD across this otherworldly landscape, which comes with pop-up eco lodges, views of the snow-capped Andean mountains and unforgettable sunsets.

05

Mongolia

Mongolia is one of the last untapped wild frontiers. Watch nomadic horsemen ride across the desert plains, find dinosaur bones among moving dunes or go for a swim in an icy lake.
