Frozen Planet

I make no apologies if the theme of our e-news this month seems a little predictable.

When something is as good as the BBC’s new ground breaking programme, it is inevitably a huge source of inspiration. If the exceptional footage of wildlife and dramatic landscapes isn’t enough, then just listen to the narrative of the world’s most intrepid and eloquent octogenarian, Sir David Attenborough. Even the bit at the end where the cameramen tell us how their jobs are far more interesting than ours, is compelling!

If you want to go beyond a virtual Frozen Planet experience then try one of our group tours below, in the meantime tune into BBC1 every Wednesday evening!
