Welcome to  theultimatejourney.co.uk.  This site will follow the travels and adventures of Julian & Julia Ranger and their seven year old daughter Jamilah on their once-in-a-lifetime epic round the world voyage. It will act as a journal cataloguing every destination traveled to in the form of blogs and pictures in order to both create a formidable database of memories and to allow family and friends to track their progress throughout the voyage. The journey will take just under two years, and will be split up into eight separate trips, each with a home 'break' in-between for about two weeks. January 2008 sees the journey commence with the first trip to the Caribbean and Central America, followed in March by a visit to Nepal and India , in May China, Tibet and Mongolia and in July to Eastern and Southern Africa and Madagascar as well as further trips in late 2008/2009. You can see the detail of each trip and the other trips by selecting the 'Exclusive Tour Plan' menu option. Julian & Julia (Jules & Jules) have a blog page you can access from the menus and Jamilah has a separate blog page. Please feel free to add your comments, observations and questions - whether you know us or not.
