What's next on your Travel Bucketl ist?

Travel creates precious memories that will last a lifetime.
I t relaxes and invigorates us. 
It opens our minds, broadens our experiences, educates and makes us creative. 
It also makes us ridiculously happy!
WHAT WOULD MAKE YOU HAPPY IN 2018?
Here are some ideas:

RUSSIA for Soccer Fans
Interest in Russia has exploded recently, and I am proud to announce that we have secured an exclusive agreement for VIP Hospitality Tickets to the 2018 FIFA World Cup™  - held in various Russian cities from June 14 to July 15. 
Choose from Single Match Packages, Team Specific or the Final Round Series - but hurry... the best seats are being taken as we 'speak'. 

Of course we'll design your Russian journey from start to finish, which could include a river cruise, a visit the the Hermitage and Fabergé Museums, and many other highlights this vast nation has to offer.

A YEAR IN REVIEW
AFTER 40 YEARS IN TRAVEL MY QUEST TO CREATE MEMORABLE JOURNEYS CONTINUES TO GROW.
How it all began...
2017 was an exciting year for our travellers, who could be found  island hopping in Greece, camel riding in the  Moroccan deserts , visiting  Koala Bears in the Australian Blue Mountains, hiking to  Machu Picchu , cruising the  Galapagos Islands on a small yacht, and paddling down the  Amazon River. One intrepid couple even  camped out in the jungle for a night... do they have a story to tell!

It's been a busy year for our African Safari goers too. Wildlife sightings included the Big Five in Botswana and South Africa, the great Wildebeest migration in Tanzania and Kenya, not to mention trekking to the endangered Gorillas in the Virunga Mountains of Rwanda. Our favourite Twitchers spent a few days with a private guide, bird watching to their heart's content in remote areas of East Africa. 

By all accounts they had a fantastic experience.   Check out our latest reviews.
LOOKING BACK, AND MOVING FORWARD
On a personal note, my daughter and I were fortunate to spend 3 weeks discovering the backroads of Italy on a Vespa, by Segway and on foot.
I also explored India ( Blog), returned to my beloved South Africa and visited Morocco for a luxury travel conference.
 
2018 is the year I go to  Egypt - at last. I'll be hitting all the high points - the Pyramids of Giza, the Valley of the Kings and, of course the Temple of Abu Simbel. But it's not all history and sightseeing... I will also be taking to the skies in a hot air balloon and sailing up the Nile on a fabulous 5* deluxe River Cruise ship. Can't wait!
 
Spring will find me on the Nile again, but this time near the source of this great river in Uganda. I plan to full-fill another #bucketlist dream - getting up close and personal with Mountain Gorillas and Chimpanzees!  My New Year's resolution is to be fit enough to actually enjoy hiking up those mountains!
In closing I would like to send a special shout-out to everyone, who has recommended my service to family and friends.  It really makes my day.  
Your referrals are a huge compliment, and it's always such a pleasure to create their dream trips too. Thank you!

Wishing you a wonderful and adventurous 2018 - wherever your journey takes you.

Yours in Travel,
