Trending: Destinations to Watch in 2020

Bookings for our Benin and Togo Voodoo Discovery doubled in 2019, and it's already in-demand for 2020. Benin's recent popularity reflects a wider trend towards more unusual and unique experiences outside of the traditional summer holiday. 

Our Benin trip includes a visit to the largest stilt village in Africa, Ganvie, where we meet a village soothsayer to learn about Voodoo traditions and rituals. You'll also meet a tribal healer who treats local patients with voodoo rites and herbs. 

Having hosted a successful Rugby World Cup, Japan's focus is now on the 2020 Olympic Games. We've seen an increased demand for Japan trips in recent months, and our most popular trip is Simply Japan. This two-week trip introduces the highlights of fascinating Japan, travelling from Tokyo to Hiroshima. We'll stay overnight in a Buddhist temple, attend the morning service at Fudo-do Temple, and try green tea popcorn (surprisingly delicious) at Nishiki food market.

Wildlife trips in general are on the up, but Botswana in particular has seen huge interest in 2019.  This peaceful slice of Africa is known for its unparalleled wildlife experiences and warm and welcoming people. 

The jewel in Botswana's crown, the vast Okavango Delta supports a huge variety of species, while the Big Five can all be seen roaming Chobe National.
