Vanuatu is an absolute gem when it comes to exploring the South Pacific. Its lush and naturally abundant islands make it stand out from the typically flat atoll nations in the region. For adventure-seekers, Vanuatu is a paradise filled with active volcanoes, stunning jungle hikes, picture-perfect beaches, and underwater shipwrecks waiting to be explored. But that's not all - with its incredible ethnic and cultural diversity, our journey across three of its islands, Efate, Tanna, and Espirito Santo, is sure to be an unforgettable experience. This might be the only time we run this Expedition! So you definitely don't want to miss out, sign up now to join us on this incredible adventure!

The best way to see not only the Mt Hagen festival but also the highlights of the PNG highlands. Safe, exciting, and lots of fun.

·Indian Himalayas & Bhutan·about 1 month ago

A spiritual and cultural-focussed expedition, not the typical style of other Wander trips, but I absolutely loved it. Bhutan is beautiful and this expedition was the best way to see it, the tricky visa and tour guide requirements were all handled and the itinerary gave the very best of the country in a few days. Northern India was equally serene and even as someone who hates hiking, having a great group to champion you along the way made it fun.

·West Africa III·about 1 month ago

The best overland adventure you could ever ask for. Two weeks, 22 people, 6 cars, endless laughs. Sure, the days are long, and you definitely need to bring snacks, but it’s so much fun and the best way to see the parts of Africa that most people don’t go to! And it has everything - beach, nature, pool days, local communities, cities and middle-of-nowhere adventures. I’d even go as far as to say I’d do it again….. never say never!

My trip to Libya with you Wander Expeditions was unreal! Everything was super well organized, the group vibe was like family, and the guide kept things fun with stories and games along the way. Libya itself blew me away amazing people, amazing places, and good energy everywhere we went.
