World Heritage sites (WHS)

There are just 981 UNESCO World Heritage Sites across the world. We strongly suggest you visit as many as you can! These WHS are deemed to be of special cultural or physical significance by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation.

We have 28 of them in the UK including the world renowned Stonehenge and Avebury in Wiltshire which are famous for groups of megaliths. These two sites consist of circles of menhirs. These prehistoric stone circles astronomical significance is still being explored to this day.

If you’re looking to visit somewhere a bit more exotic and further afield we suggest you take some time out in Tanzania which is home to the Ngorongoro Crater. The Ngorongoro Crater is the largest unbroken, un-flooded volcanic caldera in the world! It was formed over three million years ago when a giant volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself. This massive natural crater now acts as an enclosure for wildlife and is also a conservation area, which protects numerous animal species including the “Big five” with a large population of Lions.
