With a diverse range of destinations to travel to and problems to solve, our SWAT agents explore the world with great joy and fascination.

In each of these fast-paced stories two young agents are chosen to join the Secret World Adventure Team. As SWAT agents they are given an assignment, from saving the elephants in Africa or creating a computer game in Japan, to setting up the New Years Eve laser show in Sydney.
