Welcome to On Location for May. It has always been our policy to visit and thoroughly explore a particular area before we recommend it to others. On Location is a first hand account of some recent journeys made by our staff.
"The scenery is stunning, the contrasts of the different regions are incredible, the people must be the friendliest in all of South America; the food is great and the local wine delectable...."
"Havana was a shock. Coming from a tranquil Cotswold village it was doubly so. I was rudely awakened by a loud noise that in my jet-lagged stupor I feared to be the rumbling of revolutionary tanks...."
"Life in Kerala is slower, the smiles are wider and the streets are quieter, the greetings are sincere and the people are very warm..."

"Just three and a half hours from the UK is Morocco, where in an two weeks, I visited desert, mountains, a beautiful ancient city, coast and two of the most vibrant cities in North Africa. Oh and ate lots of delicious food..."

"Seeing the macaws in flight was a truly spectacular sight - the extraordinary riot of colour - yet it is sad to think that without the help of conservation projects these beautiful birds may become extinct..."
"On the northern circuit I would say the highlights involved watching an elephant demolishing a tree next to my tent from my morning shower, making me nearly miss my bacon and eggs at Olivers Camp in Tarangire National Park..."
