We love receiving feedback like this! We would like to extend our huge thanks to everybody involved with the recent Cambodia expedition. Jacob had a fantastic time, very different from his usual travels but we all feel so much more rewarding and enriching. Special mention to Mark who steered the group in Cambodia, he was terrific! I couldn’t recommend the True Adventure life experience highly enough.

After #swaziland Tom’s recce headed into #mozambique to check out a #dolphin #conservation #project Very impressed with how carefully the #snorkeling interaction is managed, 1 boat, no getting in the water unless they approach, and not if they have young. All of the data from every trip is fed into a local conservation initiative to monitor the dolphins and other sea life in the area. #schooltrip #expedition #recce #blueplanet #sea #schoolholidays #bucketlist #ourtrueadventure
After the hiking came #flying #zipline #ziplining #swaziland #eswatini #canopy #schooltrip #expeditions #malolotja #recce #trueadventure #ourtrueadventure
Wishing everyone a very good Easter break. Ellie is spending Easter in Peru on recce trekking, visiting project sites and of course Machu Picchu!
