Hungary
Step into the storied land of inventors and Nobel laureates, a nation that is both proud of its heritage and excited to embrace the future.

This is Hungary – a country where the old world and the new seamlessly intertwine.
Begin your journey in Budapest, the vibrant capital that offers a blend of medieval streets and lively markets. Beyond Budapest, Hungary's countryside offers a quiet escape. Roam through the vineyard-draped hills of Tokaj or explore the fairy-tale castles of Eger and Székesfehérvár. Take an enchanting forest train ride through the Bükk Mountains or stop for a taste of local delicacies on your way to the city.

South Africa
If you think of Africa as a land of vast barren deserts and relentless summer sun, then South Africa is sure to surprise you. Instead, here is a place where golden savannahs meet cerulean waters, and the footsteps of the Big Five resonate in the air alongside the vibrant pulse of city life. This is not just a destination; it’s a living, breathing story waiting for you to become a part of it.
From the iconic Table Mountain towering majestically over Cape Town, to the untamed wilderness of Kruger National Park, South Africa promises an experience like no other.

East Africa
As the dawn breaks, the sun rises over vast savannas, painting the skies in hues of gold, pink and amber. The desert comes alive with the rumbling footsteps of elephants, the calls of exotic birds and the whispering winds of the Great Rift Valley. What a spectacle! Such is the beauty of East Africa, a land brimming with extraordinary landscapes, cultures, and wildlife.
Witness the thunderous migration of wildebeest and zebras as they cross the endless plains, pursued by stealthy lions. Venture to the idyllic shores of Zanzibar and the Kenyan coast, where soft, white-sand beaches meet cerulean waters of the Indian Ocean. Or watch the elements collide in a display of neon landscapes and active volcanoes at the Danakil Depression.
