Morocco: A Journey Through the Colors, Culture, and Charms of North Africa
Traveling through Morocco is like stepping through a living mosaic—each city a different tile, adding depth and color to the whole picture. Marrakesh dazzles, Casablanca grounds you, Fez humbles you with its history, and Chefchaouen soothes you with its calm. Together, they tell the story of Morocco: dynamic, diverse, and unforgettable.
Falls, Desert & Delta Safari
Experience the iconic drama of Victoria Falls, the Okavango Delta and the wilderness of the Kalahari in one phenomenal African safari!
From the thunder of Victoria Falls to the lush waterways of the Okavango Delta and the vast silence of the Kalahari, this itinerary ties three extraordinary landscapes into one unforgettable safari. It’s a path I’ve traveled often and always cherished for its richness and variety.
Discover Namibia
Namibia is a country of contrasts. It’s where the rust-red sands of Sossusvlei meet the Atlantic Ocean in the hauntingly beautiful Skeleton Coast. It’s where the ancient traditions of the Himba people remain vibrant, and conservation efforts protect rare species like black rhino and desert elephants. It’s where solitude becomes a luxury and every horizon feels like the edge of the Earth.
Okavango’s Hottest New Safari Stay
Daunara is a luxury camp nestled in a remote corner of Botswana’s Okavango Delta. Surrounded by pristine wilderness and teeming with wildlife, it offers a private, immersive safari experience ideal for families or small groups. With elegant tented accommodations, personalized service, and breathtaking views of the floodplains, Daunara combines barefoot luxury with the magic of the Delta’s untamed beauty.

Rwanda and the gorillas
Rwanda is known as “The heart of Africa” due to its central location on the African continent. It is also referred to as “The land of a thousand hills”, which makes it an ideal environment to trek and see the mountain gorillas in their natural habitat of the Virunga mountains.
Luxury safari to Kings Camp, Timbavati
Arriving at Kings Camp in the Timbavati Private Reserve feels like you’re coming home. From the moment you walk into the lodge, you are treated like royalty.
Uganda – Garden of Eden and Gorillas
Arriving in Entebbe, Uganda I cannot believe that I will be gorilla trekking on this trip! Instead I’m greeted by the usual mish-mash of most African cities, with the exception that Entebbe is situated on Lake Victoria, Africa’s largest lake and the source of the Nile river.
The Start of a Journey!
It’s been said that a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step, and so I suppose this first blogpost would be representative of my first step in what promises to be an exciting new journey for me; and I’m glad that you’re here to take it with me.
