School Adventures with Teesside High

Friday, July 6th, 2007

You might not know, but Explore also organise School trips (or adventures as we like to call them). Right now one of our long time Schools’ customers – Teesside High School – are on their way around Thailand on their 4th adventure with us. A group of 19 teachers and students are travelling, and they are writing a blog about their trip with us, from start to finish.

So to see how Explore works from an education perspective go take a look at Teesside High School’s blog

Update: They have now returned – go to their blog to read more.

Explore frenzy

Friday, May 18th, 2007

Lots of things happening around the office at present. We’ve launched our Short Breaks programme for 07/08 – some very interesting tours in terms of Winter breaks, Wildlife and culture! Two personal favourites:

Voodoo Villages based on our Cradle of Voodoo tour but shorter! Togo and Benin in West Africa for just under a week.

Tatras and Slovak Paradise - winter short break but the price is fantastic – wish I could go on this one this winter.

We’ve also launched a holiday promotion for Families new to Explore with 5% off 5 tours (you can see more here) – By the way, existing family customers already get 5% off any tour.

And there are also some more exciting developments coming soon, and I’m not talking about Explore Blogs Twitter account.

Gorillas, Africa and Tour leading

Saturday, February 24th, 2007

Kate Plummer, one of our wonderful tour leaders, who has also been presenting at our Evenings of Adventure, talks about leading tours in Africa, particularly to Uganda. The trips Kate has been leading have also been to see the Mountain Gorillas and she talks about what an amazing experience meeting the apes actually is, and how emotional it can be.

You can catch Kate at any of our remaining Evenings of Adventure (see our website). Well worth a look, as the presentations are really rather good.
