For centuries intrepid explorers have searched the world over for the lost kingdom of El Dorado, a land believed to have streets paved with gold, layered with lakes of fresh water and luscious green jungles - a land so beautiful you will never want to leave. At the close of June, the golden gates of El Dorado will open for the third time revealing a new weird and wonderful playground nestled amongst the hills of the beautiful English countryside. Join us and other likeminded Explorers as we escape everyday life in search of something far more exotic.
