Beyond Our Featured Destinations: Designing Exceptional Journeys Across the World

From the Arctic to the Andes, we craft luxury, nature-driven travel wherever your imagination leads.

At Wild Atlas Explorations, our featured destinations — Zambia, Kenya, Uganda, and Australia — reflect the places we know intimately and love deeply. They represent the heart of our brand: nature-centered, seasonal, immersive travel.

But they are only the beginning.

Many travelers come to us with dreams that extend far beyond Africa or Australia — journeys to Patagonia, Iceland, Japan, the Canadian Rockies, the Alps, the Atacama Desert, or the Mediterranean coast. And we love designing those experiences just as much.

If you can dream it, we can plan it.

This guide explains how we approach travel planning for the rest of the world and highlights some of the extraordinary global destinations our travelers often request.
