"Where in the World" Launches a New Site
for Adventurers, Travellers, and ExplorersNovember 1, 1999 -- Where in the world announces its new website < https://www.whereintheworld.co.uk >, which provides a comprehensive directory of unusual vacations and events across the globe. Unlike many travel related sites, Whereintheworld.co.uk does not operate on commission from individual travel companies. Instead, it is completely independent and, therefore, unbiased. The aim is to inspire both new and seasoned travellers to try something different and unusual.
The website gives users access to full and complete travel details to support each adventure or expedition, including dates, costs, itineraries, contact details and background information such as currency, weather, visa, and safety where appropriate. Each is regularly checked and updated throughout the year, with a direct link to the individual travel operator's own website for booking purposes.
Where in the world is divided into themed sections including Spiritual journeys, Ancient Splendours, Great Explorations, True Grit, With the kids, The Big Blue, High Octane and The Final Frontier, as well as a section on unusual events in Diverting Detours.
Users can explore the site in several ways via the themed menu, the full listing page of the keyword search facility encompassing the whole site.
Each section of the site features a rich array of destinations and activities:
'The Final Frontier' covers flying a Russian Mig fighter at 70,000 ft or Zero-G flying and air-to-air combat to civilian-manned space flights.
'Ancient Splendours' offer the jewelled palaces of the raj and timeless train journeys across the forgotten landscapes the world. Visitors can choose from historical journeys behind the Iron Curtain to a voyage in celebration of the Vikings.

In 'The Big Blue' section, visitors can dive down to the Titanic or visit the world's northernmost shipwreck under the Arctic Ice by submarine. They can swim with that true predator of the deep - the Great White Shark - off the South African coast, or scuba dive in the Amazon rainforest.
