October Heat & Specials

October Heat & Specials

There is always a sense of expectancy in the air around this time as we wait for the first rain showers to cool down the plains and fill up the various waterholes with fresh water. Guides at Victoria Falls report the falls are quite dry. Although I realize a lot of clients like to see the Victoria falls in full…   Continue Reading

South Africa - Glamping in the Kruger
As mentioned in previous blogs, September is the month we focus on South Africa, one of the best months to do a safari in Southern Africa. Game viewing is at its best.

South Africa on a Budget

South Africa on a Budget
Following on last week’s blog where we are running a South Africa Month and Specials, we thought we would write about doing South Africa on a budget in 12 to 14 Days and including some key areas.

I must point out Cape Town is beautiful…   Continue Reading
