Rainbow Tours has expanded operations beyond its core destinations of Africa and Latin America for the first time, introducing itineraries in four new countries - India, Borneo, Sri Lanka and Canada.
The move comes as the company, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, re-positions itself more firmly as a specialist tour operator for wildlife and nature holidays with the release of a new Safari and Wildlife Guide highlighting encounters with animals, birds and marine life.
Jennifer Atkinson, CEO of ITC Travel Group, the parent company of Rainbow Tours, said: ?The majority of Rainbow Tours? business has always centred around wildlife holidays. Whether it?s birding itineraries in Costa Rica or Peru; gorilla trekking and big five safaris in East or Southern Africa; or bespoke trips to experience Madagascar?s unique natural assets; our team is highly knowledgeable and incredibly passionate about crafting trips on the trail of iconic and lesser-known species.
"Our expertise stretches beyond Africa and Latin America, so it?s a natural progression to introduce new destinations where clients can encounter amazing wildlife such as polar bears, orang-utans, tigers, whales and more.?
A newly-published Safari and Wildlife guide by the operator offers 112 pages of inspiration and information.
Contents include a guide to the wildlife and landscapes visitors can expect in different African countries, along with the different types of safari available (hot air balloon, walking, horseback etc); a safari calendar outlining where to travel when and why; information on finding Africa?s big five; experiencing the Great Migration; and Africa?s top five alternative wildlife encounters - lemurs, Abyssinian wolves, gorillas, chimpanzees and humpback whales; a guide to India?s ?big five? and Borneo?s orang-utan hotpots; information on wildlife in the Americas; editorial features; and inspiration for twin-centre trips, celebrations and family holidays.
