Our thoughts are with the people and communities of Nepal affected by this devastating flooding.

We’re proud to support the World Expeditions Foundation’s Nepal Flood Appeal. If you’re able to help, even a small donation can make a difference to communities facing an incredibly difficult road ahead.

World Expeditions is deeply saddened by the catastrophic flooding that struck the Rasuwa district, devastating communities across the Bhotekoshi and Trishuli river valleys. Families have lost loved ones, homes and livelihoods, and the recovery ahead will be long.

We want to reassure our community that all World Expeditions clients and staff currently in Nepal are accounted for and safe. We're monitoring the situation closely with our local ground operators.

Nepal has given us a lifetime of extraordinary journeys. Right now, its people need us.

Through the World Expeditions Foundation's Nepal Flood Appeal, you can help directly, with no commission or admin fees taken, every dollar reaches the communities who need it most.

Proud to have supported this brilliant project through Alpine Odyssey Aotearoa.

A safe, climate smart classroom now means Suango School students can learn in a stronger, cooler and connected space, even after disaster.

Huge credit to Huw, Save the Children Vanuatu, CMA CGM, MOET and everyone who helped bring this to life.

Hey there Adventure South community, Guide Bryan here!

Just sharing a few shots from a recent Alps to Ocean Classic trip where I guided with Harry a lovely group of Australians.

We had a delightful time, with a highlight being the still conditions on the Ahuriri Arm of Lake Benmore with snow-capped peaks in the distance.

Plenty of fun too with a games evening in front of the fire at Burnside Homestead (last picture).

With Earth Day yesterday, it feels like the right moment to say how grateful I am to spend my days in places like this, and to share them with people who appreciate them as much as I do.

I've had the most wonderful season and want to thank every one of the guests I had the pleasure of guiding. It was so special.

Thank you,
Bryan

We're on New Zealand's North Island with our crew, riders and videographer, capturing the landscapes, people and moments that make the region's cycling so special.

The weather has thrown plenty at us, but between the showers we've found the light, the energy and some seriously beautiful footage. We hope everyone across the region is staying safe.

Our new North Island film lands next month. We can't wait to share it with you.

A fantastic group from the States arrived with a clear vision: explore the North Island's most stunning and less-travelled interior.*

Our trip designer absolutely delivered, intertwining some of our existing itineraries into a two week special tour! Kicking off in New Plymouth, sweeping inland via the legendary Forgotten Highway, across to Taupo, then over to

Napier for two gorgeous nights on the Hawke's Bay coast. From there, into Havelock North before heading south on Route 52, one of the most beautiful drives in the country, with two incredibly special nights at Wallingford Homestead in the Wairarapa, and finally heading south, enjoying our final evening in Martinborough, finishing in Wellington.

Volcanic plateaus, dramatic coastal clifftops, sweeping hill country, world-class wine country, west coastline and eastern beaches, all strung together by roads that feel like a proper local secret. It's the kind of itinerary that reminds you just how extraordinary this country is.

We felt special to be given the most beautiful card when saying our farewells. Honestly, it's what this job is all about.
