WHAT'S NEW:
Short Breaks We’d all like to be able to take two weeks off to bike the Himalayas or ski in New Zealand, but let’s face it, some people can only take their vacation time in bite-sized chunks. So we've reconfigured several of our trips to make it possible for you to travel for as little as 3, 4 or 5 days. Whether it's surfing in Morocco, Mexico, France or El Salvador or skiing/snowboarding in Switzerland, we can cater to those of you who can only afford to take a day or two off work. If you're interested in shortening any of our other itineraries, please drop us an email or give us a call and we'll do our best to meet your needs. Read more... |

HIT THE SURF:
Indo-Surf, Jungle, Temples & Cuisine Bali is one of those destinations that has it all - some of the world's best surf (for experts and beginners alike), beautiful white-sand beaches, unbelievable scenery (including lush rice paddies and dense jungle), delicious food, and wonderfully hospitable locals. Our Indonesia trip visits the best of the Bali coastline before crossing over to Java for several nights in a lush national park. It can be customized to suit all abilities (from complete beginners to advanced surfers) and all tastes (from those who want to surf every day to those who wish to add other sports and cultural activities to their itinerary).
