Plan your adventure

Bespoke travel specialists

Making dreams a reality

Love Travel Adventures is a long-haul boutique tour operator for discerning travellers looking for personal service and something a little bit different. 

We’re Heather and Craig Bones, a husband-and-wife team who draw on our experience as travel industry professionals and years of personal globetrotting to create truly unique holiday experiences. 

We launched Love Travel Adventures after identifying a need for a much more individual approach to quality, high-end adventure planning that ticks all the bucket list boxes while still remaining comfortably affordable.

As a result, there’s nothing off-the-shelf with Love Travel Adventures: no queuing for a seat on that crack-of-dawn safari bus or waiting in line for your lunch. Our clients prefer to travel as couples, or in small groups drawn from among family or friends, and we build exclusive adventure itineraries to mirror their priorities and bring their dreams to life.

Family on the ground

We select our local partners with enormous care — they’ve become our friends as well as our trusted suppliers — and because we know all our destinations inside out we can point clients towards some amazing hidden gems. At the moment we’re focused on creating bespoke adventures of between seven and 21 days in Botswana, Kenya, the Maldives, New Zealand, South Africa, Sri Lanka, and Tanzania and Zanzibar.
