We have finally unpacked, sent out our thank you emails and finished sending out some of our amazing itineraries to some of the great people who came by and visited us at the Los Angeles Travel & Adventure Show. We had a great time talking about all the wonderful adventures that we offer in Africa.  […]

Usually the best adventures come when you least expect them and when something did not go as planned. On the 3rd day of our Namibian trip we drove up to an area known as Wereldsend (Afrikans for end of the world). Our car got us there but as it was moved just a few yards […]
