“Safari memories to last a lifetime”Day 2 – Ol Pejeta Conservancy “Seeing all the endangered species the Ol Pejeta Conservancy protects was amazing, like Somali ostriches, reticulated giraffes, silver-backed jackals, and Jackson’s hartebeests.”Day 3 – Ol Pejeta Conservancy “We learned that Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary is the only place in the country where we could see chimps, and we even sponsored one.”Day 4 – Masai Mara “Seeing Masai Mara was a dream come true for us. Our tented accommodations were remote and lavish, making us feel like we were in the middle of nowhere, with all the luxuries we could ask for.”As big animal enthusiasts, we wanted our first ever African safari to be perfect, which is why we chose Kensington Tours. The suggestion to end off the trip on the beach came as a surprise to us, but we loved it.

The anticipation of our next game drive had me up before my alarm.”Day 7 – Diani Beach“After a fast-paced safari, relaxing on the beach was so welcomed. The colors at sunset on Diani Beach were unlike anything I’ve seen before. Watching the sun set was the very best way to spend our last evening and take it all in.”21

You can feel its spirit all around you. Our fabulous dinner in the desert, as the sun went down, was picture perfect.”Day 5 – Uluru “Exploring Uluru with our Aboriginal guide really opened my eyes to how meaningful the site is to their culture, and to how they’ve fought to protect it. It’s alive for them, and they brought it to life for us.” My husband Paul and I love travel, but with our busy work schedules we typically only manage quicker getaways.

“Together we shared our passion for adventure, good food and great wine”Day 1 – Santiago “Our introduction to Chile was dinner at Bocanariz Wine Bar, where all the waiters were trained sommeliers – they were seriously expert about their wine, but not snobby at all. Loved the tasting flights they recommended.”Day 4 – Puerto Natales “Our private guide took us on an easy trek of Dorotea Hill, near the Argentinian border. He made sure we spotted the condors that nest in the cliff walls, and that we stopped at the best places to get great shots.”Day 5 – Puerto Natales “Four of us saddled up like gauchos to explore a huge working estancia, or ranch, on horseback, while the other two enjoyed their rugged off-road drive along the coast to get up close to the wildlife. They got some great photographs.” We three couples have been friends for years, and we wanted to do something really fun and different – get off the beaten track somewhere beautiful, somewhere we could also relax and enjoy all the creature comforts.

Seljalandsfoss, IcelandDay 4 – Patreksfjordur “I took a dip in the pool like my Destination Expert recommended. The geothermal waters are a big part of Icelandic culture, so I really felt like a local.”Day 6 – Akureyri “As we took our small boat from the ship to shore, there it was – a breaching whale right ahead of us in the distance. It was like a scene from a movie.”Day 8 – Bakkagerdi“We were able to get so close to the puffin colonies on our Zodiac excursion toward the cliffs of Bakkagerdi – a photographer’s paradise.”101
