In our pursuit of extraordinary stories from the DA family, we spoke to Jo, a remarkable 32-year-old with an inspiring story. Jo's courage and determination reflect the spirit of our community, embodying the essence of adventure beyond the ordinary. This story really resonated with us as Jo's tale is more than a travelogue; it's a testament to the power of seizing life.

As another year comes to a close, we wanted to reflect on another dream-making year at DA. From Everest to John O’Groats, we’ve taken people on trips of a lifetime and experiences that will never be forgotten. We’ve rounded up a few of our favourite testimonials to share with you at the end of 2023.

As the first couple of months of 2023 whizz past, we’ve been taking a look back at our trip highlights from last year. We always take the time to read through your feedback (good and bad!) as it forms the basis for how we plan and deliver our trips in the future. We love hearing all about your experiences, but every so often, a testimonial comes through that really makes us smile 😊

Whether you enjoyed meeting adventurers, soaking up a new culture, spending time with our DA crew, or a huge sense of achievement – we want to hear it all! Here’s a round-up of some of our favourite feedback from 2022…

During lockdown, we were thrilled to be able to keep in touch with our DA Family online. We talked on our Facebook page daily, we reminisced and shared pictures. People told us their stories, and one of those standout stories was when Victoria told us about how she met her soon-to-be Husband on our Everest Base Camp trip back in 2018. 

I’ve been holiday hunting over the last couple of weeks and found myself with tab after tab open on my browser; comparing details, inclusions and most importantly price. Before you ask, no, sadly I haven’t got anything booked yet… What can I say!? I’m too indecisive!

It’s made me realise that finding the right challenge, at the right price can often be the most stressful part. So, I wanted to break this down from a DA perspective. Whether you're looking for your first bucket list trip like trekking the Great Wall of China, or climbing Kilimanjaro, or simply looking to explore Asia on two wheels, hopefully, it’ll help you to make a smart decision a lot quicker than I have.

We have gathered some of our towering challenges to see whether you can guess which reach the highest. No peeking!
