  • Spirit of Tanzania ~ South Migration

    In Tanzania, Swahili is not just a language, it’s a culture. It stems from Arabic tones and spread from the coast along vast trade routes to reach inland East Africa well before 1000AD. From a simple greeting of ‘jambo’ and a response, ‘sijambo’, a lengthy rhetoric usually unfolds. And this is where you take a deep breath and realise you’re on Swahili time.

  • Spirit of Tanzania ~ North Migration

  • Primates of the Congo

    The Congo flows through time like a stream. Meandering slowly, its story is etched into the landscape, written largely in the shadows of the world’s spotlight. French colonial architecture stands sentry over dusty streets as unceasing rainforests evolve into a thick tangle of branches. Under the wet heat, primates with electric eyes beat their chests, echoing beneath the shade of the canopy. Their leathered hands, so much like our own, brush aside branches as sticks crackle underfoot. This enduring land is borrowed from the most vibrant imaginations And, as time marches forward, The Congo keeps movingat its own pace.

  • Jordan, the Desert Kingdom

    Jordan is a poet’s reverie. Rock-hewn Petra is adorned with myths and mystery. The Wadi Rum desert rolls forever into the horizon, an ocean of gold. Beautiful Amman, with its ruins and mountains, has yet to succumb to the passing of time. And the Bedouin and their herds claim the unforgiving desert as their home.  

  • Timeless Egypt

    From the bazaars to the temples; the history to the culture, Egypt is abundant with riches. Take a journey back in time and become acquainted with a land that has held the world’s attention for centuries.

  • Gorillas of Rwanda

    The slopes of the Virunga volcanoes stand proud on the horizon as you enter Le Pays des Milles Collines (Land of a Thousand Hills). Ahead, lies a lush country bursting with beautiful landscapes. Along with the truly once-in-a-lifetime gorilla encounter that awaits, you will meet the resilient people and witness a country rebuilt; once visited, Rwanda will not be forgotten.

  • Explore South Africa

    Cape Town’s iconic Table Mountain is flanked by Devil’s Peak to the east and Lion’s Head to the west. But the spectre of these two dinner guests does little to dampen the enthusiasm of those wanting to immerse themselves in the superb food and wine of the region. As the fiery sun fades over the Stellenbosch valley, the only sound will be the clink of your glasses as you toast the passing of another African day.

  • Delta, Wilderness & Victoria Falls

    At first, you’ll notice the silence. The aching, yawning silence as you glide through the middle of the Okavango Delta. But ever so slowly, as you sink back into your seat and close your eyes, the sounds of Botswana will make themselves heard. The whoosh of the pole as it propels through the water, the rustle of the reeds; the ‘chu charra, chu charra’ calling of the dove ~ this is the Okavango.

  • Spirit of Kenya

    In Kenya, you will not only hear Africa’s song but you will see it played out in front of your very eyes. The Masai people will reach deep into your beating heart and respond with a chanting chorus of harmonies, ranging from a primal growl to a high pitched hum.
