From the close-to-home camping experience of De Kluis in Belgium and the spectacular glacial landscapes of Iceland to the far away wilderness of Canada, you can be assured that your requirements will be met.

Their experienced staff are experts in providing the perfect holiday and know just how to make your trip as hassle free as possible. Whether it’s coming to visit you and your group for a Question and Answer session, providing you with risk assessment forms or arranging for all your camping equipment to be ready for you when you arrive on site - Venture Abroad has it covered.

Croatia, Iceland and Norway offer a wealth of opportunities to discover new skills and fantastic scenery.

In Croatia, groups can take to the seas, either by exploring what’s beneath on a dive in the shallows or windsurfing over the crests and a day trip to Venice is a must for those seeking some culture.

Iceland is a country like no other. Just a short flight transports you to unspoilt scenery made up of glaciers, volcanoes, waterfalls and geysers.

The Troll Activ camp in Norway offers adrenaline-fuelled activities such as white water rafting in spectacular scenery. In addition, groups get the unique experience to stay in Lavvos (tepee tents) for an added highlight to your tour.

For a shorter trip that’s closer to home, how about a Disneyland Paris weekend break?

Always a popular choice, our Disneyland Paris weekend breaks depart on Friday 20 and 27 January 2012 and allow groups to experience the magic of Disney in the company of Guides and Scouts from across the UK.

Perfect for smaller groups, our two-night holidays allow groups to stay in the themed Disney hotels and experience all the thrills and spills that the park has to offer.

You can also follow the summer adventures on the Venture Abroad blogs.

Throughout the summer, a Venture Abroad representative will be based in our popular resorts of Kandersteg International Scout Centre in Switzerland, De Kluis in Belgium and at the 22nd World Scout Jamboree in Sweden.

For the first time, they will be bringing you all the action from their location, reporting on the comings and goings of our groups and revealing the exciting adventures had by thousands of Scouts and Guides.

Updated every day, each rep will post photographs and videos alongside their ‘behind-the-scenes’ account to give you a real insight into ‘camp life’.
