Forty-five years ago, Explore Worldwide launched with a simple ambition, to help ordinary people experience extraordinary places through small-group adventures.

This July, as the award-winning adventure travel specialist celebrates its own 45th birthday, it’s giving trade partners a compelling offer to share with clients, 45% off trips around the world for anyone born in 1981, when they book in July.

The campaign also forms part of Explore Worldwide’s Radical Sabbatical movement, encouraging people in mid-life to stop postponing life’s biggest adventures until retirement. It’s a trend agents are already seeing, and one that makes this an easy fit for clients in their forties who are finally ready to book.
