Dear Traveller,

Its been a year of two big calamities, first the summer flood in Uttarakhand and later with the autumn cyclones that hit eastern India, and a few weeks later, the Philippines. Our efforts in rehabilitation through the Aqua Terra Charity Trust began soon after, thanks to generous donors who stood up when it mattered. Soon after, we marked a safe return to tourism in the heart of the destruction, by notching a successful crossing of the Auden's Col, the first time a group has crossed over successfully in 3 years.   Uttarakhand is safe, and awaits your next visit.

As a solemn year end approaches remembering those affected by the tragedies, we wish you a Merry Christmas and the joy of starting 2014 on a brand new note.

We have a slew of trips on offer, as promised. Browse through them, request detailed PDF's with trip photos, and decide on the journey you wish to take on in the new year. Our Spring adventures are noted below to help you make that start, and you can look up our 2014 calendar by clicking here. You will see that our range is unmatched, when it comes to the variety of experiences on offer, making your choice of outfit easy to make.  

Also wish you a very happy festive season, and if you're 
still looking for year end getaways, we have two absolutely fantastic options below.
We hope to see you travelling with us soon.

Regards
