  • Episode Ten: Peru Travel Guide
    Sep 11 2024

    Peru is the country that truly has it all. Encompassing the wondrous peaks of the Andes, the deep blue of Lake Titicaca, the arid plains that lead to the Pacific Ocean, and ancient Inca ruins that will enthrall visitors, prepare to be enchanted by a destination bursting with variety, life, and colour.


    In this episode, long-time friend of Wild Frontiers, Kate Humble, dives into the plethora that Peru has to offer (not including her own unique experience while filming a documentary about alpaca farmers!)


    Kate speaks to special guest Hilary Bradt (co-founder of Bradt Guides) about why she chose to feature Peru in their very first guidebook, written in 1974, plus many more fascinating travel tales that demonstrate her love of the country.


    Also joining Kate is Latin America expert at Wild Frontiers, Richard Leonardi, who offers a wealth of knowledge, including how to experience Peru 'off-the-beaten-track', sustainable travel, culinary delights, and travel logistics, to get the most out of your trip to this awe-inspiring country.

  • Episode Nine: Pakistan Travel Guide
    Aug 6 2024

    Everything you want to know about travelling to Pakistan! Get ready to be transported to one of the most beautiful and fascinating countries that is incredibly close to our hearts. Often lauded as one of adventure travel's best-kept secrets, Pakistan is also where Wild Frontiers was born over 25 years ago. Listen to our founder, Jonny, talk about his adventures in Pakistan, and visit to the valleys of the Kalash – the last of the pagan tribes to inhabit the Hindu Kush – where he was so taken with these warm and welcoming people that he stayed for three months and ended up setting up Wild Frontiers on their advice.

    Jonny speaks to Marc, our Director of Product and Operations, to discuss security in Pakistan and how we use our contacts and experience to ensure the safety of all of our visitors. As part of our 'Just Back From' series, Jonny interviews some of our travellers he joined in Pakistan last month at their stop in Hunza to find out why they wanted to visit Pakistan and their thoughts on their trip so far. He also speaks to Natasha, our Operations Manager who handles our tours to Pakistan and recently returned from a trip there, to discuss the practicalities of travelling to this culturally rich and diverse destination.

Great travel tales

Love listening to the places described so vividly. I can almost taste the food and smell those places.
