✨ The journey of a lifetime awaits... Our travellers recently returned from an unforgettable adventure!

☀Machu Picchu & The Galapagos:

"Apart from the amazing hotels, stunning locations, first class service and wonderful food, the whole holiday was curated perfectly by Joanna and team. The logistics all came off without a hitch even when there were curveballs thrown at us at the 11th hour. Definitely recommend for those wishing to have a trip of a lifetime built around your own bucket-lists or adventurous desires. Peru has everything from rainforests to the Andes and the Inca trail doesn't disappoint. And the Galapagos is a living Natural History museum with out of this world animals - but shhhh don't tell anyone, or they'll all want to go!"

Another wonderful client review 🥰

"Our experience with Journeysmiths and particularly Ross was outstanding from start to finish. We wanted to go on a once in a life time safari trip and we had no idea where to start, Ross guided us through the entire process. Every single detail was taken care of to the highest level, they went above and beyond and everyone we met along the way was brilliant, at every stage of the trip we thought it couldn't get better... but it did!"

This , celebrate one of nature's most iconic creatures with us!

This years theme is 'Protecting Rhinos and their Habitats' and at Journeysmiths, we believe that choosing the right places to visit can have a profound impact on their welfare.

By supporting conservation initiatives like Care for Wild in South Africa, you can play a role in safeguarding these amazing species… We have curated a truly unique and exclusive experience, offering a privileged few behind-the-scenes access to this otherwise incredibly private sanctuary on a 1 or 2 day visit, easily tailored to your itinerary.

"A visit to Care for Wild is a magical experience. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, you realise you are part of something much bigger than yourself, and there's something indescribably special about that." - Rory Wood, Head of Sustainability

Why Brazil should be your next safari destination? Find out in recent article in

Where Stepanie Stayed:

Region 1 - The Pantanal

Larger than England, the Pantanal is a truly vast area of mesmerising natural beauty.  Over a thousand rivers and streams congregate to create this immense tropical freshwater wetland, where glistening waterways, lily pad-covered lakes, and open marshes rise and fall to nature’s rhythm.

 
Region 2 - The Cerrado

Despite being the world’s most biologically rich and diverse savannah, the Cerrado is often overlooked. Known as the ‘upside down forest’  thanks to its twisted, gnarled trees that rely on their huge roots during droughts, this wilderness combines peaceful grasslands, rivers lined with forest, harsh rocky outcrops and giant waterfalls.

🌟We are proud to expand our Journeysmiths family by partnering with brands that share our commitment to sustainability, working together towards a positive future.

One such brand is , whose mission is to make their clothing and products as sustainable as possible. Since 2015, they have recycled 100 million plastic bottles into products, implemented a zero-landfill policy for waste from their facilities, and reduced CO2 emissions by 872.69 tonnes through solar panels at their HQ from April 2021 to August 2022.

We recently collaborated with Craghoppers on a trip into the wilds of Brazil, where our MD Laura Burdett-Munns and Head of Sustainability Rory Wood put their clothing to the test in three of the most impressive biodomes on the planet: the Cerrado, the Amazon, and the Pantanal.

“Whenever I travel, my Craghoppers gear is a must. Brazil's heat and humidity were a new test, but my NosiLife trousers, shirt, jumper, and snood handled it all like a dream! The comfort and breathability were spot on for everything Brazil threw at us.” - Rory.

Did you know that giraffes are the national animal of Tanzania? 🦒

This incredible country is home to the largest population of Masai giraffes in the wild! These awe inspiring animals, with their iconic long necks and striking patterns, are the perfect symbol of Tanzania's breathtaking savannah.

But it's not just about their beauty—giraffes play a crucial role in maintaining the health of their ecosystem. By nibbling on treetops, they help shape the landscape, allowing other wildlife to thrive.

On this special day, let’s raise awareness about giraffe conservation… Share your giraffe stories and photos with us, and let’s spread the word about protecting these gentle giants.

☀️A few fun facts about Chile to brighten your day...

🏜 Chile is home to the driest place on Earth – the Atacama Desert (also the astronomical capital of the world)

🏝 Chile has one of the longest coastlines in the world (as you would expect from the world’s second longest country). If you’re wondering what the longest is, it’s Brazil!

🍷…It’s also the 4th largest exporter of wine in the world (cheers!)
