• Six Great British Explorers

  We love exploring and turning an ordinary day out into a full-blown adventure. But, these six Great British Explorers went the extra mile, venturing from the UK's shores to discover hidden gems and twisting tales from across the world. While these may not be the greatest explorers - and some have a few controversies that have followed them through the centuries - each was or is great in their own way!
