History tours
No matter how long or how far we intended to travel, there’s no escaping the fact that learning about a country’s past is much more exciting in the field as opposed to in the classroom. This is why history tours holidays are fast-becoming one of the industry’s most fascinating prospects with the battlefields and heritage sites of Ethiopia, Mongolia and India, all forming an unforgettably worthwhile journey towards the world we find today.
