Escape The Politics… The Traveller Way
With the election all over, it’s time to escape the politics.
Online travel company and responsible tourism pioneer, Responsible Travel, has interviewed some of the UK most inspirational travellers to find out the best places to wake up in the world, perfect for those who are fed up with the political posturing.
Here’s where they suggest we head off to, to escape the election fall-out!
BBC Wildlife Presenter – Liz Bonnin
“In a tent in Botswana as the sun rises and the wildlife starts its dawn chorus.”
Wake to the sound of African wildlife through the canvas. This two-week camping safari, offering complete wildlife immersion, costs from €1,690 excluding flights with weekly departures throughout the year.

British Explorer of Channel 4s ‘Walking the Americas’, Levison Wood:
“I can mention a thousand places, but perhaps on a mountainside in Nepal to the sound of a cockerel.”

British Gold Medal Paralympic Cyclist, Karen Darke:
“‘I have to say probably hanging off El Capitan.”
In contrast to Karen’s view, you may prefer to enjoy Yosemite National Park looking up at El Capitan with your feet firmly on the ground. We would suggest, especially if you are travelling far, that you should see as many Western American national parks as possible.
