Some would argue that traveling to a nation that has suffered from human rights abuses imposed by the ruling military junta would be a sign of approval of the government's actions by the international community. However, others argue that a travel boycott may not be the best means of affecting change within the country. G.A.P Adventures has made the decision to operate tours in Burma out of a belief that travellers should have an opportunity to experience this country first hand, meet its people and potentially return home as ambassadors for positive change. Burma Adventure 14 days ex Yangon Trip Code: ABBA Trip Style Original Yangon, Kyaiktiyo Golden Rock, Bago, Mandalay, Pindaya Caves, Bagan, Kalaw, Inle Lake There are few countries in the world with the allure of Burma (Myanmar). Through years of isolation, it has managed to retain many of its cultural traditions and historical heritage. A visit to Burma is in many ways similar to a journey back in time, to an Asia from a bygone age. Day 1 Arrive Yangon Arrive in Yangon at any time. Day 2 Kyaiktiyo (1B) Visit the home of the Golden Rock a sacred boulder covered in gold and balanced atop a cliff. Day 3 Bago (1B) This provincial capital is filled with open-air markets selling handicrafts and goods made by local cooperatives. Day 4 Flight to Mandalay (1B) Visit the magnificent Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon before catching an afternoon flight to Mandalay. Day 5-6 Mandalay (2B) Wander the ancient history of the old capital of Mandalay, where the last king of Burma held court. Day 7-9 Bagan (3B) Explore what was once a great and populous capital, and what is still one of Asia's most awesome and mystical spectacles. Gaze out over the many pagodas which dot the horizon. Day 10- Kalaw (B) Drive through the scenic Shan State to the former British Hill Station of Kalaw. Day 11-12 Inle Lake (2B) Drink in the tranquility of this serene body of water and its floating gardens. Tribal villages, monasteries and stupas line the shores of a lake surrounded by spectacular mountain scenery. Day 13 Yangon (1B) Take a trip to Scott's Market, where you will find a wonderful array of Burmese handicrafts - wood carvings, textiles, lacquerware, silver and brassware, masks and puppets, and musical instruments.

Massive, majestic and unforgiving, Antarctica is a continent of superlatives. It is the coldest, windiest, driest, iciest and highest of all the major landmasses in the world. One of the world s environments least touched by human activity, Antarctica is increasingly unique on our planet. Here, stark white landscapes framed by towering rock faces and icebergs on a colossal scale slide by noiselessly as you navigate some of the most beautiful waterways in the world.

The vast region of the North Atlantic and the Arctic conjures up images of sparse and inhospitable snow covered lands, however when summer arrives this region springs forth in a colourful display of life. While both Antarctica and the Arctic are home to a rich variety of marine species, only an Arctic cruise will reveal the eclectic mix of cultures, a plethora of blooming wild flowers and an abundance of fascinating land animals.

Trip Reviews Absolute Peru - Lares

It was the best trip I ve ever made. All the guides we had, especially our tour leader, were very competent and interesting. Thanks to them, we fell in love with their beautiful country. Now all that we want to do is come back to Peru and learn even more about it. I found that spendind only 3 days and 2 nights in the jungle was great, but I wanted even more time there. holiday park south wales
