Chalo Explorers Club
Chalo Expeditions
Specialist-led expeditions to the wildest, least-travelled corners of the world.
The Chalo Explorers Club is where our small-group journeys go furthest off the map. Each expedition is capped at a handful of travellers, led by a specialist guide, and built around a single idea: to be in the right place, at the right time, with the right person to explain what you are looking at.
These are not big-bus tours. They are slow, considered and often demanding — tracking snow leopards in Ladakh, following gorillas through the forests of Gabon, searching for jaguar in the Pantanal, or walking the floodplains of Mana Pools. Departures are few and places are limited, so they tend to go early.
