Kumuka Worldwide launch new travel e-magazine, VENTURE.

Sydney, 30 October 2006, - Kumuka Worldwide have recently published their first edition of an exciting new travel e-magazine called VENTURE.

This colourful 32 page magazine is packed full of travel stories, features, competitions, tips, advice, reviews and testimonials.

VENTURE has been created to give readers an idea of the kinds of experiences they can enjoy on a holiday organised by Kumuka. General travel magazines talk about destinations and attractions around the world, but their stories may not match the type of holiday people get from their tour operator. With VENTURE, everything relates to one or more of Kumuka’s trips.

The magazine will give readers a real sense of the Kumuka travel experience: the type of people that travel with Kumuka (many of whom are repeat customers), who the guides are, the specialist knowledge and the underlying philosophies that drive the company.

Kumuka was founded from a sense of amazement about travel – the journeys taken through life and the myriad of people and places encountered along the way – and it is hoped that VENTURE will reflect this enduring passion.

The Autumn/Winter e-version is being e-mailed to existing members of the Kumuka Worldwide database and will be the first of 3 to 4 to be produced over the next 12 months.

In edition one readers will find articles on travelling in China, meeting Maasai tribesman, seeking out Mountain Gorillas and a trip through South America culminating in the Rio Carnival. Also included in the first edition is a competition to win a 29-day African safari.
