New Trek in Hidden Himalaya of Burma

In Burma's remote northern territory, close to both China and India, a group of snow-capped peaks marks the eastern end of the great Himalayan chain. Almost no outsiders have visited these mysterious mountains which rise close to 6000 metres. So, we are very excited to have been able to set up this exciting new exploratory trek that will take us through the villages of colourful tribal people and then on forest trails to the stunning viewpoint peak of Phonyin Razi (4282m). Including a demanding 10-day trek, a wealth of new experiences and time for sightseeing in Mandalaya and Yangon, this is a unique opportunity to take part in a KE reconnaissance expedition in an intriguing part of the world.

Traditionally, Nepal and Morocco are our most popular Christmas destinations. On Xmas Eve you could very easily be just a stone's throw away from Everest Basecamp or sipping a mint tea in Marrakech, having just climbed Mount Toubkal in winter condition. This year you seem to be more adventurous than usual and with a wide range of holidays guaranteed to run there is something for everyone!

You could be sleeping under the stars in the deserts of Algeria and Oman, climbing volcanoes in Guatemala and Ecuador, rafting the rapids in Costa Rica, exploring ruins in Jordan or Peru, learning to snowshoe in Slovenia, or even trekking to the top of Kilimanjaro in Tanzania!  For the bikers out there you will not want to miss out on our spectacular ride from the Dead Sea to the Red in Jordan.  There is also plenty of choice for adventurous families wanting to get away from all the Xmas hype; from trekking in the Khumbu Valley in Nepal, exploring the deserts of Oman or hanging out with the elephants in Sri Lanka.

Check out our full list of holidays with departures over the Christmas and/or New Year period.
