SOUTHERN JAPAN WITH KERI + NICOLA

    Discover the Energetic Heart of Kyushu with Keri & Nicola of Finisterra!
    
    Join Keri and Nicola on an unforgettable small group tour through Kyushu, Japan’s southern treasure, where nature’s raw power meets deep-rooted traditions. Home to 17 active volcanoes, Kyushu is Japan’s most volcanically dynamic region, offering dramatic landscapes, rich history, and unique cultural experiences. Hike through breathtaking eruption sites, soak in mineral-rich hot springs known for their healing properties, and taste delicious local cuisine—including food steamed using the region’s natural geothermal heat. From the rolling grasslands of Aso, where people, cattle, and horses live in harmony, to the awe-inspiring Mount Aso, one of the world’s largest volcanic calderas, every stop on this adventure will leave you in awe.

    This Southern Japan tour is not just about landscapes—it’s about history, culture, and people.

        Backwaters at sunset - Colourful Kerala: A Women-Led Escape with an India Insider

        EXPLORE KERALA WITH MARGOT BIGG

          Welcome to Southern India! From Hilltops to Backwaters – Explore Kerala with Margot Bigg
          
          Join Margot Bigg, India expert and travel writer, on a women-only small group adventure through colourful Kerala. A fascinating journey through India’s tropical south, do experience the diversity in scenery, architecture, culture and most importantly the people.

          Flanked by the Arabian Sea in the West, the towering Western Ghats in the East and networked by 44 interconnected rivers, Kerala is blessed with a unique set of geographical features that have made it one of the most sought-after tourist destinations in Asia. A long shoreline with serene beaches, tranquil stretches of emerald backwaters, lush hill stations and exotic wildlife are just a few of the wonders that await you once you cross over to the other side. And what’s more, each of these charming destinations is only a two-hour drive from the other – a singular advantage no other place on the planet can offer.

          Kerala is divided into three geographical regions: the Highlands, which slope down from the Western Ghats onto the Midlands of undulating hills and valleys into an unbroken 580 km long coastline with many picturesque backwaters, interconnected with canals and rivers. The wild lands are covered with dense forests, while other regions lie under tea and coffee plantations or other forms of cultivation. Most of the state is engulfed in rich greenery, which ensures a very calming experience at all times.
