GO London, International Adventures

### Social Walk Along the Thames

Join us for an atmospheric evening walk tracing London’s story through its bridges — from Westminster to Tower Bridge. We’ll follow the Thames eastward past Parliament, Westminster Bridge, and the Victoria Embankment, discovering tales of rebellion, invention, and empire.
Along the way, see Cleopatra’s Needle, Waterloo Bridge (rebuilt by women during WWII), and cross to the South Bank for Shakespeare’s Globe, the Clink Prison, and the Golden Hinde. Each bridge reveals a chapter of London’s past — from Blackfriars and Southwark Bridge to London Bridge and our grand finale, Tower Bridge, a masterpiece of Victorian engineering and one of London’s most iconic sights.
A relaxed, story-filled evening walk through centuries of London’s riverside life.

🥾 Paddington to Camden Walk – Regent’s Canal, Little Venice & Primrose Hill Views
London canal walks | Regent’s Canal walk | Camden Lock walking tour | urban hikes London | Little Venice to Camden
Join GO London Hiking for a beautiful urban walk through historic waterways and leafy neighborhoods, tracing Regent’s Canal from Paddington Basin to the vibrant heart of Camden. Starting at Paddington Station, we’ll escape the city’s bustle and follow the tranquil canal past the houseboats of Little Venice, where narrowboats drift like floating cottages.
We continue east onto the Regent’s Canal, opened in 1820 and once a key route for coal and timber during London’s industrial boom. Along the way, we pass architectural landmarks like the grand Crocker’s Folly, and walk over the Maida Hill Tunnel, the canal’s second-longest.
Admire quirky sights like the Upside Down House, the elegant villas of Regent’s Park, and climb Primrose Hill for stunning panoramic views. From there, we pass Gilbey’s Yard, a former wine and spirits depot turned creative quarter, and reach the lively Camden Lock, once a thriving dock and now home to street food, music, and markets.
Our walk ends at Camden Town Tube Station, with time to explore or enjoy an optional post-walk social.

This adventure takes us deep into the Middle East, the heart of Bedouin country, where ancient trade routes crisscross the landscape. For centuries nomads traded spices, salt, and pearls between the ports of the Persian Gulf and the imperial cities of Jerusalem, Medina, and far beyond.
Led by Bedouin guides, we enter Petra—“The Rose City” one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. We trek from the secret entrance of Siq al-Barid (Little Petra), following time-worn Nabataean paths through open desert and rocky terrain. Surrounded by mountains and Bedouin camps, we steadily climb, passing through ever-narrowing wadis and weathered cliffscapes. Along the way, we encounter hand-carved monuments, tombs, and temples before reaching the narrow canyon that reveals our first glimpse of the magnificent Treasury, where we exit this remarkable site.
After a night in a hotel, the journey continues into Wadi Rum, also known as the Valley of the Moon, where T.E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) based himself during his Arab campaigns.
This vast desert landscape is dominated by massive rock formations, sculpted over milenia into natural arches, gorges, and eerie shapes. We camp with the Bedouin, experiencing unparalleled sunsets and crystal-clear skies—perfect for stargazing.
Our adventure ends with a return to Amman, where we share a post-trip meal and recount stories of an unforgettable journey.

Deep in the heart of the Central Sahara lies the Tadrart Rouge, a vast plateau of red sands and dramatic stone towers. This unique 5-day desert trek immerses us in prehistoric art, geology, and the timeless landscapes once navigated by Touareg traders.
From our base in Djanet, we’ll hike ancient caravan routes through valleys and wadis, visiting sites such as the Tin Essou rock engravings, the cliffs of El Berdj, and the mysterious “Hunter’s Period” rock art near Moul Naga – including the famous Hedgehog Rock. The journey culminates at the towering dunes of Tin Merzouga, reaching up to 300m high, where we’ll camp beneath a spectacular Saharan sunset. On our final trek, we pass through Oued In Djaren, home to arches, cliffs, and the iconic Weeping Cow engraving at Tigharghart.
Between hikes, we’ll relax at desert camps under star-filled skies, enjoy authentic Algerian meals, and end with time to explore the souks of Djanet before flying back via Algiers.
This is an adventure of raw beauty and history – a chance to step into a world that feels like another planet.
