Venture into the unknown with Expéditions Ducret, where the Congo Basin reveals a world few have seen.

Cruising upriver on the Princesse Ngalessa, you’ll step off into ancient forests alive with the calls of chimpanzees, track bonobos in the wild, and watch forest elephants emerge into hidden clearings. Along the way, meet local and Indigenous communities whose traditions are deeply rooted in this land, offering a rare glimpse into ways of life shaped by the great river.

This is travel at its rawest and most rewarding, a deep dive into one of Earth’s last great wildernesses, where culture and nature remain powerfully intertwined.

Perched on the cliffs above the Yantra River, Veliko Tarnovo is Bulgaria’s medieval masterpiece. Once the proud capital of the Second Bulgarian Empire, its cobbled streets, cliffside houses, and mighty Tsarevets Fortress tell stories of tsars, battles, and centuries of tradition.

Wander the artisan quarter of Samovodska Charshia, where local craftsmen keep age-old skills alive, or watch history come to life in the spectacular Sound and Light Show that lights up the fortress at night. Add in sweeping views, vibrant culture, and the rolling green hills beyond, and you’ll see why Veliko Tarnovo is known as the “City of the Tsars.”

Hidden in northern Romania, the Rodnei Mountains are one of Europe’s best-kept secrets. Rising above the rolling hills of Maramureș, this protected national park is a landscape of rugged peaks, glacial lakes, alpine meadows, and forests alive with wolves, bears, and golden eagles.

What makes the Rodnei truly special is the way nature and tradition intertwine. In the valleys, villages still follow centuries-old rhythms, shepherds tending flocks in summer pastures, families crafting local cheeses, and wooden churches standing as quiet guardians of the past. Out on the trails, you’ll find a wilderness that feels untouched, with sweeping ridge walks and crystal-clear mountain air.

For travellers seeking an authentic Carpathian adventure, one that blends culture, wildlife, and wild beauty, the Rodnei Mountains offer an experience that is both grounding and unforgettable.

Just 16 km from Antigua, Volcán Fuego is one of Central America’s most active volcanoes, and one of the most thrilling sights you can catch! From glowing lava flows to dramatic ash plumes, it’s a spectacle you’ll never forget.

While the summit is off-limits for safety, guided treks to nearby observation points let you safely witness the action, with panoramic views of Acatenango and Agua. Sunrise or evening treks are perfect for epic photos, especially when Fuego lights up the night sky.

Pro tip: wear sturdy boots, bring warm layers, and don’t forget your binoculars or zoom lens. Dry season (Nov–Apr) is the best time to go. Adventure, drama, and unforgettable views await!

Embarking on a journey to the Arctic is unlike any other, a place of stark beauty, endless horizons, and wildlife encounters that feel almost otherworldly. From floating past towering icebergs and glaciers to spotting polar bears, walruses, and Arctic foxes, the region is a haven for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.

Popular Arctic expeditions include Svalbard, Greenland, northern Canada, and Alaska, often aboard ice-class ships or small expedition vessels. Activities range from kayaking through icy waters, hiking across tundra landscapes, and photographing the Northern Lights, to learning about indigenous cultures and Arctic ecosystems.

Travelling responsibly is key, the Arctic’s fragile environment demands careful planning, sustainable tourism practices, and expert guides to ensure both safety and conservation. Visiting during summer offers extended daylight and calmer seas, while winter trips offer the chance to witness the spectacular aurora borealis dancing across the night sky.

For those craving adventure, wildlife, and dramatic scenery, the Arctic promises a journey that is as awe-inspiring as it is unforgettable

18/08/2025

Perched on the banks of the Suriname River, Fort Zeelandia is one of Paramaribo’s most iconic landmarks and a testament to the city’s layered colonial history. Built by the Dutch in the 17th century, the fortress once served as a military stronghold, a centre for trade, and even a seat of government during Suriname’s colonial era. Over the centuries, it has witnessed everything from battles and uprisings to the growth of Paramaribo as a vibrant riverfront city.

Today, Fort Zeelandia houses a museum where visitors can explore exhibitions on the country’s colonial past, Indigenous cultures, and the lives of enslaved people who helped shape Suriname.

Whether you’re a history buff, a culture seeker, or simply drawn to remarkable architecture, Fort Zeelandia provides a window into the soul of Suriname and its rich, complex story.
