Ladies and gentlemen, I give you a brand new feature on our web site - Virtual Adventures.

Jennifer has recently returned from the first of ten Peregrine adventures around the globe.

This is your chance to gain a visual insight into what makes Peregrine a world-leading adventure travel company: the local guides, the style of travel, the type of hotels and the off-the-beaten track adventure that Peregrine does so well.
Over the coming year, Jen’s adventures will take her to see the tigers and Taj Mahal of north India, Ecuador’s Galapagos Islands and Amazon rainforest, Rwanda’s mountain gorillas and Tanzania’s Serengeti/Ngorongoro and, with luck, she’ll stand on the very top of Kilimanjaro. Later this year and into 2007, you’ll see the full length adventure documentary series on Australian television.
