Indonesia offers extraordinary experiences for every type of traveler. Cruise through the wild jungles of Borneo aboard a traditional Klotok boat in Kalimantan, spotting orangutans in their natural habitat. Dive into the crystal-clear waters of Bunaken Island in North Sulawesi, home to vibrant coral reefs, and explore Tangkoko National Park for its rare wildlife. Conclude your journey in Lombok, surrounded by stunning scenery and peaceful beaches. 

Rwanda promises one of the most intimate wildlife experiences on Earth — gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park. Combine this with a Big Five safari in Akagera National Park, and you’ll witness Africa’s wild beauty at its finest. With its lush hills, warm people, and commitment to conservation, Rwanda is a destination that will leave a lasting impression. 

A land of vast contrasts, Namibia stuns with its dramatic deserts, sweeping dunes, and diverse wildlife. Discover the iconic Sossusvlei and Deadvlei landscapes, explore Etosha National Park for its incredible wildlife encounters, and visit Cape Cross to witness colonies of Cape fur seals along the coast. It’s a photographer’s dream and one of Africa’s most visually striking destinations.
