Private tour with chauffeur to the unknown Spain with its rich cultural treasures

It was the Romans who brought Extremadura onto the stage of European history; Merida was one of the most important cities in the entire empire at the time. Countless storks flying towards church towers and restored palace roofs of former conquerors of the New World; vast expanses of cork and holm oaks in an area barely larger than Switzerland; plus tranquil expanses and the wildly romantic Monfragüe Vulture Nature Park. The climatically harsh, sparsely populated country is full of surprises, but due to its remote location far from the sea, it is also Spain's undisputed tourist stepchild. The landscape is characterised by the mountain ranges, the fertile valleys of the Tagus and Guadiana rivers and the lowlands of Lower Extremadura. The region has not yet been taken over by mass tourism and is ideal for those looking for alternatives to the well-known. Interesting are the folk customs, the typical dresses, handicrafts made of ceramics and metal, as well as a very good cuisine with trout, game, sausages, cheese and excellent wines.

Nature trip with fascinating observations in the most animal-rich region of South America

To experience the impressive nature of the Pantanal, you need leisure to understand and time to internalise. The magnificent animal observations in the most animal-rich region of South America in south-west Brazil in the middle of the largest floodplain on earth, which is flooded by several rivers every year, are fascinating and unique. Grassy savannahs form in the dry season when the large rivers carry little or no water. Animals are concentrated at the waterholes, similar to those found in Africa, and are abundant. Various water birds, in particular different species of ibis, such as white-necked ibis, brow-banded ibis, cayenne ibis, herons, wood storks and the large jabirus, fascinating hyacinth macaws, the largest parrots in South America, monk parakeets and countless caimans can be found here and offer opportunities to be observed.

Various tours on this nature trip take place off-road in converted off-road vehicles and in smaller, simple boats, which are equipped with radios and are always accompanied by experienced guides.

Travelling on the Aqua Mekong, you will experience a cultural journey through Cambodia and Vietnam on board one of the best river cruise ships in Asia.

Architect David Hodkinson from the Noor Design studio in Saigon designed this floating 5-star hotel. He was inspired by the aesthetics of Indochina and furnished the Aqua Mekong in a modern style exclusively with local, ecologically sustainable natural materials. The impressions from the outside are continued on the inside. Polished wooden floors, sofas in classically simple elegance made of natural fibre fabric, lounge furniture made of woven cane or water hyacinth and the lush decor of exotic flowers and plants ensure a 1:1 implementation of every feel-good requirement. Of course, this also applies to the outdoor pool, the open-air bar on the Observation Deck, the library, the spa with massage services and the varied excursion programme led by local guides. Needless to say, the galley is run by a Michelin-starred chef!

The Aqua Mekong presents itself beautifully and very elegantly with modern architecture and interior design, based on a design by the renowned architect Noor Design. The 20 spacious, air-conditioned suites of the Mekong cruise ship will delight you thanks to their full-length windows, which offer a spectacular panoramic view of the ever-changing Mekong landscape. The Aqua Mekong also received the coveted Gold Award in the Architecture/New Construction category at the Asia Hotel Design Awards 2015.

The ship's bar menu, created by renowned spirits experts and cocktail designers Proof & Co, will show you a philosophy that is sure to be to your taste with every visit.

The Aqua Mekong also guarantees you the highest level of safety, comfort and exclusivity for offshore excursions, as Aqua Expeditions owns and operates the only private fleet of launches on the Mekong. The four ergonomically designed launches allow you to enjoy highly personalised day trips to sights, temples and villages that are home to tradition, spirituality and craftsmanship. It goes without saying that it is part of Aqua Expeditions' philosophy to preserve the beautiful rivers of this world that they sail. Environmentally friendly and responsible behaviour is an absolute must here - this applies in the Mekong Delta as well as in the Amazon. Because only with care will others also be able to enjoy the experiences that you might tell your loved ones of another generation: Of funny monkeys, snoozing sloths, dangerous caimans, chattering parrots and other colourful birds whose names you may not know, but which have enchanted you with their exotic splendour. The endless green of the rainforest can admittedly be described in words, but the real experience of experiencing the green lungs of our planet in all their complexity and perfection can of course only be had on site. And the most comfortable way to do this is on board the "Aqua Negra", which lets you discover the wonderful world of the Amazon in Peru for a choice of three, four or seven nights.

Luxury Hotel Regent Porto Montenegro & Bay of Kotor - two sparkling jewels

Once you have checked into the Regent Porto Montenegro, you can let your gaze wander undisturbed over the fantastic Bay of Kotor and its marina and feel a touch of Venetian flair in this hotel. There is a reason for this, of course. The bay has mostly been in different historical and political hands than the rest of the country. Western Rome, but also the Habsburgs and - particularly lastingly - the Venetians left their mark on the area. Accordingly, historical evidence of the various ruling powers can be found everywhere today. The Bay of Kotor, a Mediterranean version of a fjord, is therefore not only worth travelling to for its scenic features and beauty, but also for its many historical and religious sites. A multi-coloured, sparkling jewel of the still young country of Montenegro.

This also applies to the luxury hotel Regent Porto Montenegro, the brightest star in the local luxury hotel sky. The warm and courteous service leaves nothing to be desired. The wonderful spa area and the magnificent pool landscape will put you in the best holiday mood.

The 8-day and 13-day cruise expeditions around Raja Ampat are visual spectacles of unrivalled marine diversity, taking you to some of the best diving and snorkelling sites on earth.

Raja Ampat, which translates as "Four Kings", captivates visitors with the enigmatic beauty of its limestone karst islands, which have emerged from a legendary myth. Those who experience this sight with its dramatic landscapes, secret lagoons, bays and beaches for the first time feel like an enthusiastic, overwhelmed explorer. Travelling in Raja Ampat gives you the opportunity to explore new territory and marvel at the world's most biodiverse areas. In short, every day of your journey is like an award-winning National Geographic report, only right before your eyes and within your reach.

Raja Ampat's world-class wildlife excursions take place both on the ground and underwater. It was here that the famous 19th century naturalist Alfred Russell Wallace came across species of Bird of Paradise that only exist in this region of the world. Witnessing the breathtaking beauty of the Wilson's bird of paradise and the red bird of paradise and their mesmerising behaviour in the wild is arguably one of the most rewarding wildlife experiences of a lifetime. These winged wonders live here alongside 350 other bird species, including forest kingfishers and king parrots. Animal life also pulsates on the beach. Raja Ampat's many beaches are often nesting grounds for turtle species, including the Pacific leatherback, the largest of all living turtle species on earth, while the world's largest network of mangrove forests harbours populations of dugong and juvenile fish. Raja Ampat is also a Marine Protected Area (MPA) designated by the Indonesian government.

With the new Aqua Blu to Ambon and the Spice Islands

The 8-day (and of course even more so the 13-day) cruise expedition across the Banda Sea revives an almost forgotten chapter of world history and is a thrilling adventure between culture, nature and wildlife. Departing from the rustic Indonesian harbour town of Ambon, the Aqua Blu heads south across the Banda Sea to the Spice Islands, a destination of historical significance, endowed with both unspoiled nature and culture. As the source of nutmeg, which was once worth more than gold, the Spice Islands (also known as the Banda Islands) were the Holy Grail and the haunt of famous Old World explorers, including Christopher Columbus and Ferdinand Magellan, who sought but never found their way there.

At some point after these great captains, the Spice Islands were discovered and the Dutch established and controlled them - with a trade monopoly on nutmeg - from 1607 until the end of the 18th century. During this time, the Dutch erected numerous colonial-style buildings and extensive fortifications. In the towns and the oldest nutmeg plantations in the world, most of these structures are still very well preserved today. Entering the Spice Islands is therefore like travelling back in time or visiting a spectacular living museum, where time seems to have stood still for decades and centuries-old relics such as Fort Belgica exist alongside rich Indonesian local traditions such as nutmeg cultivation and kora-kora war canoe racing. The Spice Islands consist of a cluster of seven main islands, including the colonised Banda Neira, Banda Besar and Pulau Run. As you explore the remnants of the islands' colonial past, such as cannons literally standing next to traditional village houses, you may be one of the first to come across a long-lost relic or fort. As there are still blank spots on the map in the region and the Spice Islands are so secluded from the outside world, you can become an explorer.

The Spice Island Expedition also gives its explorer spirit the chance to sit back and relax in some of the most scenic locations in the world. Molana and Pulau Run offer gorgeous sandy beaches and are great for swimming, fishing, snorkelling and diving as well as village tours and bird watching. On Banda Neira, which is part of the Ambon Spice Islands, the active volcano Gunung Banda Api is more than just a photogenic backdrop. The eruption of Banda Api, also known as "Fire Mountain", and its seaward lava flow led to a rebirth of coral and marine life in 1988 that astonished marine biologists everywhere. In 1994, they discovered that underwater thermal springs and nutrients from the cooled volcanic lava had fuelled the growth of spectacular underwater gardens. Today, the Spice Islands are home to some of the most colourful and diverse species of coral and marine life in the East Indonesian archipelago, including giant sea fans, mandarin fish and Ambon scorpionfish. The Molucca region, of which the Spice Islands form the southernmost part, is also a "transition zone" between Asian and oceanic fauna and flora. Therefore, these islands include many species that are unique to the region. Not only that, the region is also part of the migration route for many birds and marine animals. Cruise the Banda Sea on the Aqua Blu, discover fantastic reefs for snorkelling and diving as well as the opportunity to spot spinner dolphins, orcas and various other cetacean species. Meanwhile, both endemic and migratory bird species can be observed along the coast or while hiking in the lush forests.

Welcome - on the road in Komodo National Park!

From Bali and Flores, this sensational 7-night cruise offers you an in-depth exploration of the legendary Komodo National Park and Moyo Island in eastern Indonesia.
Rising from the seas of eastern Indonesia, where two continental plates collide, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Komodo National Park is a natural wonder in every sense of the word. Ancient volcanic activity has created some of the most spectacular coastal areas on earth, with picturesque savannah hills, bays and beaches. The park's dramatic landscape provides the perfect backdrop for breathtaking marine discoveries at some of the best diving and snorkelling sites in the world. Komodo National Park covers an area of 1,817 square kilometres and consists of three main islands - Komodo, Padar and Rinca - and 26 smaller islands. Some of them are inhabited by prehistoric creatures, the indigenous Komodo dragon, which is the largest and truly most impressive lizard species living on earth.

Komodo National Park is located in the so-called Coral Triangle between the large land masses of Sumbawa to the west and Flores to the east and is surrounded by fast-flowing currents from the Indian Ocean and warm tropical seas of Indonesia, which are enriched with volcanic nutrients. The spectacular result is a highly vital habitat that is home to more than 1,000 species of marine life, including the manta ray, sea turtles and mola mola (ocean sunfish), as well as over 260 species of coral. Due to the variety of marine life, this region is worthwhile for divers and non-divers alike. Due to the dry and sunny tropical savannah climate, the Komodo National Park with its varied land and sea experiences is also an ideal starting point for exploring the region.

The speed, stability and long-range capability of the Aqua Blu cruise ship meet the highest luxury travel specifications and guarantee you not only five-star comfort, utmost exclusivity and an unrivalled immersion in the natural wonders of the park. Thanks to their exclusivity and compactness, you can discover otherwise inaccessible marine areas and trekking routes where unique nature and wildlife can be found, often without another boat or human in sight. The best examples of these secluded island paradises are Moyo Island and Saleh Bay. Located between Bali and Komodo National Park, Moyo Island is a nature reserve with unspoilt nature and marine habitats that are virtually untouched by outside influences. A wide variety of flora and fauna awaits explorers like you in the midst of lush green jungle. The absolute highlight is the picturesque Mata Jitu waterfall. Seize the unique opportunity in Selah Bay to observe the congregation of rare whale sharks that have made the bay their sanctuary, and hold your breath as tens of thousands of fruit bats take flight at nightfall.

For almost four decades, the Aranui has been a lifeline for the islanders, supplying them with everything they need to live in their villages and valleys.

Copra, citrus fruits, fish and barrels full of noni juice are loaded in return and shipped to Papeete.

Enjoy the endless colours of the sunset reflected in the ocean as another day in the South Pacific comes to an end. After a three-course dinner, the Aranui band will inspire you with the rhythm of Polynesia and teach you to move your hips to the rousing sounds of the tamure or the Tahitian waltz.

Experience and relax on the island of the gods

Blue, green and yellow-white. These are the dominant colours that shine brightly at you in a thousand facets on Bali, the island of the gods. Blue is not only the azure of the sky, but also the sparkling Indian Ocean, which invites you to swim, snorkel and dive. Green is the lush vegetation with its rice terraces, bougainvillea, palm trees and other exotic plants that wave at you in the gentle breeze. Yellow and white are the breathtaking beaches that gently caress the volcanic island and whose fine sand tickles between your toes. Discover the relaxing island of Bali on this luxury holiday, with its many religious sites and the many yoga, wellness and meditation options on offer to calm and harmonise your body and mind. And then there are Bali's mountains: many of these volcanoes are still active today and cover around three quarters of the island's total surface area.

And for its inhabitants, it is the seat of the gods. A little further down you will find dazzling temples, and with a bit of luck you can experience one of the many magnificent processions or temple ceremonies that are practised in this centuries-old Hindu culture.

Private luxury tour through the land of fire and ice

In summer, the white nights with their soft light enchant the long day into an infinite world. In autumn and winter, green lights billow unrealistically in the sky, seeming like signs from another, distant world. The hot water of natural thermal springs seems much more earthly.

Wide savannahs, flat and endless to the horizon, green bush landscapes with magnificent acacias, metropolises and the mighty Victoria Falls glide leisurely past your large panoramic train window. Here and there you spot impalas, zebras, wildebeests, giraffes... You put your hand on the glass, almost as if you could touch the scenery out there with your hands, which flickers past you like a film. The train stops. You are in another world. You step out of the comfortable luxury train of the 20th century and into the wilderness. Listen to the strange sounds, smell unfamiliar odours and hold your breath - there is a lion in the savannah, proud and magnificent like Simba, the Lion King. Back on the train, you can hardly forget the thought of the Big Five and the adventurous game drive - until another force of nature appears before you. Even from a distance, you can sense something special, because despite the blue sky, a wall of cloud sticks close to the ground in front of you.
