This is an old photo taken in the Volcanoes National Park Rwanda just after I had completed a Gorilla Trek a few years back, how good was it well the look says it all.

I am heading back in 2025 and taking a few travellers with me. This carefully designed itinerary with Bench Africa is the ultimate bucket list trip, with the option to finish with the same Gorilla Trek.
A couple of spots have become available should you wish to join me.

Hi Ida,

I would like to thank you for organizing such a wonderful holiday for us in Africa. It was brilliant. We loved every minute of our time there. The organization was top level and all the accommodation was fantastic.
Thank you.

Recently, I had the pleasure of escorting a group of travellers through the stunning Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, Sicily.
This UNESCO World Heritage Site is not only home to the magnificent Temple of Hercules but also recognized as the Cultural Capital of Europe for 2025.
Our visit was enriched by breathtaking views and rich history, making it an unforgettable holiday experience.
We look forward to helping you find your next holiday destination 🤗

Incredible Mongolia 🇲🇳

Thanks to Jeffery Murray for these spectacular photos.

Through your lens, I relived the beauty of this extraordinary country. 🤩

A visit to Mongolia allows you to immerse yourself in the rich cultural tapestry of this nomadic land, where the iconic ger—known to many as a yurt—stands as a testament to centuries of tradition.

Whether you're captivated by the thrill of the Eagle Festival or the serene beauty of the steppes, Mongolia promises an unforgettable journey into its heart and soul.

Hi Ida,
We are loving Croatia 🇭🇷 and its Islands the small group cruise tour with Insight was awesome, now heading to Dubrovnik. Passed by fruit market stalls and beautiful scenery. A visit to Ston for lunch where we took in the magnificent stone wall and salt pans and had Black risotto and local oysters for lunch. We reached our hotel Valamar Argosy high up on the hill with scenic views of the Harbour. Beautiful sunset to complete our weary day. ❤️
