Good News for Travelers
Europe is cheaper than it's been since we started this newsletter 14 years ago. With about 2.27 marks, 1.77 Swiss francs and 16 Austrian schillings to the dollar, and trans-Atlantic winter airfares in the process of dropping to around 50% of what they were during the summer peak travel season, there is no better time to visit our three countries than in the next six months.
A recent call from son Andrew, an occasional contributor to these pages, and who was at the time in Vienna, really brought it home to me. He and his wife, Margaret, had rented a small car and were traveling without a pre-set itinerary. Approaching Vienna from the west, they stopped at the roadside office maintained by the Vienna Tourist Office where they were given a choice of accommodations in their price range. When they had picked one, the friendly and very helpful young woman made a reservation for them, explained about parking at the hotel - they could leave the car on the street - and highlighted their route to it on a map. For these services they paid a small charge of $2 or $3.
They chose Hotel Aramis (Döblinger Hauptstrasse 55, tel. +43/1/3698673, fax 3692480), three-star accommodations about 10 blocks north of the Ring. A tram to the center stops outside the hotel. For a fairly Spartan double room with private bath they paid 650 AS ($40), though the published rack rate is 900 AS ($56). (Andrew suspects the tourist office booking center and the hotels are cooperating in a kind of "priceline.com" maneuver in which hotels with open inventory make their rooms available at reduced prices for 11th hour bookings.)
Think about it for a moment: that's a three-star hotel with private toilet and shower, in downtown Vienna, for $20 per person.
He also raved ("these people are great!") about a return visit to a hotel he discovered a few years ago for Gemütlichkeit, the Gasthof Waldrast (tel. +43/05672/62443, fax 62443) in Reutte, Austria. For a very large, nicely furnished double they paid $45.
A little arithmetic demonstrates just how inexpensive our countries have become. A 200 DM room in a four-star hotel back in the bad old days of a weak dollar was $145. Today that same 200 DM room is $88. In Switzerland, a 150 Sfr. room in a three-star hotel that was $136 is now $85.
The dollar is now so strong that travelers who, a few years ago, had to step down a hotel category or two can now consider returning to more luxurious accommodations.
Lets look at prices for a few of our old familiar favorites:
- In the Austrian spa town of Badgastein, south of Salzburg, the Hotel Grüner Baum (tel. +43/06434/25160, fax 251625), which is as good a country hotel as we've seen, is now offering a four-day package that includes multi-course dinners, buffet breakfasts, a lake district excursion with lunch, a mountain picnic, a "Mozart gala" dinner, and one with live music and folk dancing, for 5990 AS ($384) per person. This is five-star luxury in one of Europe's most beautiful country hotel settings.
- At the wonderful Hotel Anker (tel. +49/09391/60040, fax 600477), in Marktheidenfeld, which, because it is about 40 minutes east of the Frankfurt Airport, we recommend as a "first-night" hotel, the best double room in the house is now under $100. The Deppisch family's hospitality is legendary.
- Want to spend a few days in one of the world's great cities and stay in one of its most stylish small hotels for less than $150? In Berlin, try the Brandenburger Hof (tel. +49/030/214050, fax 2140 5100) with its Bauhaus interior and wintergarden breakfast room where standard doubles go for 310 DM ($136).
- Zürich is probably the most difficult city in our territory in which to find moderately-priced hotels. For good rooms near the Bahnhof, try the Arlette (tel. 41/01/2520032, fax 2520923) at 195 Sfr. ($110).
The Best of the Best
Booking through the Leading Hotels of the World Website can get you a double room at the magnificent Victoria-Jungfrau Grand-Hotel & Spa or our "Hotel of the Century," the Beau Rivage Palace in Lausanne for just $237 per night (rack rate $400-plus). The same booking service offers a rate of 450 DM ($198) at the Brenner's Park Hotel in Baden-Baden.
Where the Real Bargains Are
Solid three-star hotels in small towns, especially in Germany and Austria, are particularly good value right now:
- For sheer gemütlichkeit, hearty Bavarian food, and the most fun night you'll have in Germany, we've been recommending Garmisch-Partenkirchen's Gasthof Fraundorfer (tel. +49/08821/9270, fax 92799) for more than 20 years now. It's gone from a $136 splurge to an $84 per night bargain. And for about $20 per person you can drink several beers, eat a hefty farmer's dinner followed by a Coup Denmark (chocolate sundae), and even have enough left over to have a Schnapps or two as a finish to a long evening of folk dancers and Freidl's down-home singing and accordion playing.
- The top double room at the Hotel Petrisberg (tel. +49/0651/4640, fax 46450), in the Mosel river town of Trier, is 150 DM ($66).
- Doubles at the Romantik Weinhaus Messerschmitt (tel. +49/0951/27866, fax 26141) in Bamberg, Germany, start at 189 DM ($83).
- In Seeg, Germany, near Füssen, the Pension Heim (tel. +49/08364/258, fax 1051) has large, well-equipped doubles for 144 DM ($63).
- In touristy, but charming Rothenburg ob der Tauber, the Reichs-Küchenmeister (tel. +49/09861/9700, fax 970409) prices its best doubles at 220 DM ($97).
- The four-star Stadt Hotel Styria (tel. +43 /07252/51551 - 54, fax 51551 - 51) in Steyr, Austria, offers doubles at 1280 AS ($82).
- Just north of Salzburg, in tiny Lengfelden near Bergheim, the Gasthof Bräuwirth (tel. +43/4522163, fax 45216353) has double rooms for $90 and three course dinners for about $11.
Enough already. Suffice to say, unlike just a few years ago, all three countries are full of good hotels where two persons can stay for less than $100 per night.

Highly recommended, stayed at this location twice now and wouldn’t stay anywhere else in the area. Setting is superb and offers fantastic views of the town, coastal area and surrounding hills/fields. It also offers a whole host of nature from the livestock of the farm (cows, sheep and horses) to roaming wild deer, rabbits and a large variety of birds. The hosts and everyone who works on the farm are very friendly and make you feel most welcome throughout your stay. The accommodation offered me all the amenities required for my stay and the facilities were simple yet functional and very fitting for the chalet. The large decking area around the chalet was excellent to sit out on during the sunny Scottish weather and perfect for the sunset views over Dunbar. Easily accessible by car, with supermarket etc. just 5 minutes away. Good internet and phone signal received in all areas around the chalet. Again, couldn’t recommend this accommodation more (along with every that goes with it).
I booked the Golden Oak Chalet due to its proximity to Edinburgh and the promise of a peaceful location and was certainly not disappointed.
The chalet itself is very cosy with spectacular views. Lovely little touches such as fresh flowers in the chalet on arrival really make you feel welcome and Kaye is an absolute delight to meet.
We had several meals and glasses of wine on the decking watching beautiful sunsets.
There is lots to do in the local area so the chalet is perfectly placed. Walkers are spoiled for choice and families will love the beaches and being able to see the farm animals.
All in all this a great chalet with wonderful owners and we cannot wait to visit again. A huge thank you from us!

Tranquil View, Secluded, Yet Near Town!
Tranquil View, Secluded, Yet Near Town!
The Maine Homestead was the perfect location for our family to stay during our recent visit to Kennebunkport! We had a party of 8 and the accommodations were just right for all of us. The views are amazing! The backyard has a large rock protruding from right behind the house, and beyond it there's trees and a water view. So serene! With decks (what seemed like) everywhere, we felt we were miles and miles away from everything. Yet, the drive to Kennebunk is only about 10 minutes, and very scenic. The beach is a bit further, but still near enough to enjoy. We had a memorable time in Maine, and highly recommend staying at the Maine Homestead!

We know this review is late but we can't think of a better review than our families re-booking our next summer vacation again at your home! The home was absolutely gorgeous and the views are spectacular. The layout of the house was more than ideal for our 2 families --- it was perfect. Ample space to gather together AND ample space for each family to enjoy apart! Can't wait for next summer!

Our family of four (which includes two young children) stayed here overnight while traveling for the holidays. It was clean, comfortable, and a good value. The breakfast was fine, and the staff was polite and helpful. We would definitely consider this property again if passing through Waco. Good location...close to the mall and many restaurants, and the Baylor campus is not terribly far away.

From its original role as ancient army training fields to its present-day identity as one of the city’s most desirable neighbourhoods, the Campo Marzio is the best place to get lost in Rome. Gorgeous Renaissance and Baroque palazzos line the streets, and are filled with enticing boutiques and food shops. By day, Rome’s best-dressed denizens criss-cross its streets in a fashionable parade of errands, occasionally pausing to
look fabulous in gorgeous piazzas like San Lorenzo in Lucina. Campo Marzio can be a bit of a sleeper after aperitivi hour (21:00), so visit by day and experience the pulse of daytime Rome.

Our stay at Fairmont Chateau Whistler
Last weekend Ben and I drove up to Whistler for our wedding anniversary and had the privilege of staying two nights at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler . As soon as we arrived we were greeted by a very lovely concierge who took care of everything for us and brought all our belongings to our room.
The hotel lobby was absolutely beautiful with tons of space to relax and enjoy the views of the mountains.
Our mountain view suite was incredible! It had two bathrooms one which was an absolute dream to get ready in! Of course I just had to take a bubble bath in soaker tub and it was just as ah-mazing as I thought. The bed was so comfortable we both slept like babies and I spent my morning sipping coffee watching very excited kids and adults hit the slopes for a day of fun in the snow. We were treated to room service which was the best breakfast we ever had! It arrived promptly at 7:30 and they came in and set it up for us.
The sweetest surprise was waiting for us in our room, champagne and chocolate covered strawberries!
The hotel has an amazing gym and spa featuring hot tubs and pools outside. It may have been cold but we were toasty warm relaxing in the hot tub with a beautiful view!
Ladies, I want to let you know about an amazing event coming up at The Fairmont Chateau April 28-30. It’s the “All About Me” an indulgent and exhilarating women’s weekend retreat. This weekend will be packed with inspiring workshops, empowering presentations and lots of fun activities all while staying at the most luxurious hotel in Whistler. (Let’s not forget the amazing food too!) Our lives get so busy with work, family and everyday stress. It is so important to take time out and focus on you. You are so worth it! Click here to learn more and watch this video for a look into the weekend.
Thank you so much Fairmont Chateau Whistler for having us! We will be back soon!

Perfect quiet location
We stayed here May 26-30, 2005 in a King size room overlooking the ocean (room 202). A garden view room would be nice as well, though if it is on the back side of the hotel it might be noisy. The front-desk staff were extremely helpful and kind -- suggesting things to do and places to eat. The room was basic, a good size, no frills. The location was perfect--even my friends who live in LA agreed...close enough to walk to the promenade and pier, but tucked away from the hustle and bustle. It is only one block from the beach and the more expensive hotels (Shutters on the Beach and Casa del Mar). Even though there was no A/C in the room we were very comfortable with the ceiling fan (and my boyfriend is always hot sleeping) turned on. The kitchen was great and bigger than expected-- utensils, plates, glasses and a tea and coffee pot were provided. The shower was nice, but the showerhead was a little low for my 6'3" boyfriend. I wish there was some shelving in the bathroom...it was big enough but the sink didn't have a counter so I had to put my make-up/contacts on the top of the toilet. The bed was very comfortable and the maid service was prompt and thorough. The room could have used a new paint job and updated chairs. The comforter was a bit worn.
We enjoyed it and if we are ever staying in LA again we'll be back.
hotel was old, but right across from beach
My daughter and I stayed here for one night coming back from Aneheim.
I wasn't fond of the beach, it smelled like fish and the bums were laying all over the place. I was really surprized. I came here 19yrs ago and it was nothing like I remembered. The hotel was just somewhere to lay your head after a long day sightseeing. The hotel manager was very nice and helpful. It was nothing flashy just a small quite room. Great for a couple wanting to get away for the weekend.
drinks on the verandah
Arrived early afternoon by hire car, and as carpark was almost full and we were driving a huge vehicle, we didn't like to try and squeeze park so desk staff were very helpful in offering front onsite easy parking. Our room was ground floor, facing the beach, and to our happy surprise had a kitchen. This enabled us to buy some groceries and cook which saved heaps just on breakfasts and a cheese and ham grill for dinner one night. We often sat on the sunny verandah of an afternoon, few drinks, looking at the ocean. Tide shuttle is just accross the road. You can walk to main st for shops and restaurants.Hire a bike close by and ride to Venice beach, walking distance to pier. The room was large, bed comfortable (nice blankets) and the bathroom brought back memories of flatting in Bondi as a teenager (good memories)
The desk staff were very helpful and knowlegable. Our friends did say they heard the people above during the night, but otherwise very quiet and a great location. Large shopping complex within easy walking distance too.
I actually used the Trip advisor for this hotel before booking. Thanks
Good: Room was clean, had basic cable, ceiling fan, clean towels, clean sheets, good location, decent firm mattress and pillows, ocean a block away, room was only $150 with tax.
Bad: Upon arrival, they make you sign a card which is a contract that commits you to the entire length of stay. I would have left the hotel after the first night and I got the feeling they have a lot of people that have in the past and this is why they do this. I've never had to sign anything like this in my life at any hotel. They also preauthorize your credit/debit card for the full amount upon arrival. That means that if you used a debit card, that money will be tied up for 5-7 business days. No A/C; hot room, Stained worn carpet, Even though parking is free they don't have enough spaces so you are not guaranteed a space. Courtyard with Garden = Potted plants on cement floor, people "live" across from the courtyard in apartments, Noisy, no privacy, window would not lock, Low showerhead, good for 5'7" and under, Ugly dated rooms and TV, No internet connection in the room, no hangers in the closet, no ice machine or vending machines on the property, Lack of security, don't leave expensive items in the room, staff was okay - I wouldn't call them friendly or rude, they were just sort of manning the office busy doing paperwork.
Would not stay here again.
Bayside - Avoid if you're staying more than one night....
The description says, "European Style". This is not the case. It's a dated, old hotel. Great economy option if you just want a one night stopover and a cheap bed. We were looking for at least 2 star quality, but it was only a one star, even half star, economy option. We stayed at the Bayside from June 2-7, 2005 in a "garden view" room which overlooked potted plants and other rooms on the other side of the courtyard which weren't really rooms but apartments where people lived. I didn't like the courtyard area because whenever anyone went outside to light up, it went directly into the room. The window in our room didn't lock and the screen was easy to open, so anyone could step inside your window so safety was a factor at this hotel. I brought my expensive camera equipment with me at all times, I didn't feel comfortable leaving it in the room. The rooms all open outside, there is no interior hallway, so noise is a factor. The rooms were dated, stained carpet, worn walls, furniture was 40 years old or so, comforter was very worn; but the room was clean and the bed was firm yet comfortable, as were the pillows. By the way, there is no longer a "tide shuttle" service outside of the hotel.
The TV was out of the 70s but at least they had cable. The shower head was low - it came up to my collarbone and I'm 5'9"! No tub, only a standup shower.Towels were clean, smelled fresh, as did the sheets. The room had no A/C, but it did have a ceiling fan. I couldn't imagine staying here in mid June through end of summer though, it would have been super hot since the rooms in the courtyard have no breeze, except cigarette smoke from the patios outside. Parking is included, which is fine if you can find a space, there's only about 20 spaces for over 30 rooms so park before 8pm or you won't find a space in the back and you'll have to park at a meter. Parking in the back becomes so tight, people line their cars along the walls, so if you're staying on the first floor, do not stay in the courtyard or rear of the building!! We stayed on the 2nd floor in the courtyard. We were there for 5 nights and every night we didn't have a spot behind the lot and I had to go to the front office asking them if they could please help me find a nearby space or move their car. It was a total pain. The proximity to the beach and pier was good, about 5 minutes to the pier. The beach is a few streets over and the pier is only 3-4 blocks down. It's a quick hop onto the Santa Monica freeway too. We walked to the 3rd street promenade, too - although it was about 10 minutes to walk there plus it's about 6 blocks of shopping, so if you walk the entire way prepare to walk back about 25 minutes. It was easier to walk over there and then take a cab back at night.
The location and price was reasonable for this area ($119 per night, with tax, $140), but honestly, I wish the hotel would show some interest in its property and make it nicer for guests. I would pay more to have a room that was secure, had A/C, more modern, and didn't have that "one night stand" vibe to it.
Next time in Santa Monica, we won't stay at this hotel but rather, opt for something that felt more like a vacation. I like to be able to call out for pizza and feel like I can eat in my room. I would never eat in this room, it felt too sleazy. Sure, it was cheap (price), but it felt cheap and honestly, I don't like staying someplace where I intentionally try to find things to do at night to avoid facing my ugly hot hotel room.
I don't want to sound ungrateful though, it wasn't as bad as it could have been, but for me personally - I won't stay there again. Strange coffee maker on the wall, odd dispenser in the bathroom shower for soap, no shampoo or products, no vending machines, no ice machines, nothing. Just a bed and a room.
I'll attach some photos so you can have a look for yourself. Again, this is a courtyard room, maybe the rooms along the street facing the ocean area were nicer… I don't know. They faced the front parking lot and two streets, then the beach is over the hill, so I'm not sure how the views are from the "ocean front" rooms, but maybe those are okay. I wouldn't suggest courtyard rooms.
Rating: Below Average but clean, good economy option if you don't mind all the downsides. Oh and by the way, they make you sign some form when you arrive stating that you will stay for the full duration and you cannot check out early or else you are still charged. They also charge the entire amount to your credit card when you arrive. I didn't like this at all and I've never had to do this before. For a 5 night stay, that's a lot of cash coming out of your account if you decide, after the first night, you want to leave and stay elsewhere. You can't.
So it's more of a motel than hotel, but you can pay much
more for similar in Santa Monica and I have stayed in them.
Just returned from my second stay at the Bayside in the past 3 years.
Will be back again this September. The Bayside serves its purpose well.
Clean and good location.
Two adults, two teens spending 1 afternoon and night in Santa Monica in June. Shangri-La looks like an interesting non-chain place with room for 4 in a 1 bdr suite and a location close to everything. But it's also supposed to be, how shall we say, quirky. Any current intel on this place?
Not sure what you mean by 'Quirky'. The other hotels that are similar are The Casa Del Mar, Shutters on the Beach, The Miramar
RE: RE: shangri-la?
just seen some reviews that call the place "eccentric," which usually means odd room layouts or furnishings. neither a problem for us as long as 4 people can get a good night's sleep in a suite and we can walk to beach and attractions. i've narrowed it to either a suite at SL for about 185 or 2 non-AC rooms at the budget Bayside Hotel (.25 mi south of pier) for about 110 each. any thoughts on which location is better?? many thanks

What To Expect On Safari
When you go on an African safari as a first timer you may be expecting to step out of the airplane and into the wild, fully prepared in your safari gear with binoculars in hand. This is not what will happen however, unless you are flying via light aircraft into a remote bush location of course.
If you are visiting the Kruger Park in South Africa for example, you’ll more than likely fly into the JHB International airport, and then take a short flight to Hoedspruit. You’ll be met at the airport by a friendly lodge representative and transferred to the lodge in a 4×4 vehicle.
A typical African safari stay is 3-5 days in one location. There are two game drives per day on average, one leaving around 5am and the other in the late afternoon, leaving around 3pm. Be sure to pack warmly for these as they can be a little nippy in the colder months.
The average safari game drive lasts around 3-4hrs but may be longer depending on the animal sightings. A good guide will typically ask their guests if they have any animals in particular they would like to see, and then communicate with other guides in the reserve for possible locations or recent sightings.
There are plenty of photographic opportunities on safari as this is not a rushed event. During the safari drive your personal guide or guides will highlight and explain the many different animals, birds and plant species in the bush. This is an excellent learning experience and teaches you the finer intricacies of the bush you would miss on a self-drive experience. (Which are not allowed in the Private Reserves)
Typically at the halfway point your ranger will stop at a nice setting in the bush and lay out drinks and snacks for you. This is normally a variety of local treats like biltong (jerky), nuts and fruits. There will also be cold drinks, tea and coffee available, and of course alcoholic beverages for sundowners.
Once snacks are done you will make your way back slowly to the lodge where you have an hour or so to yourself before breakfast or dinner is served. Your private game ranger typically joins you for all meals where he shares stories or answers questions regarding the safari experience.
Best Time to Go on Safari
Africa has many great locations and the best time to go on safari differs from the Southern Africa countries to the East Africa countries. Let’s assume however that you want to go on a South African safari, as this is the most popular and all around best value experience.
The Kruger Park is the most popular wildlife reserve in Africa thanks to the abundance of animals, superb accommodation, facilities and mouthwatering cuisine. The best time to go to the Kruger on safari is from late July to October.
This is the back end of winter which means those early morning and late afternoon game drives are not so cold, and believe us, sitting on the back of an open top vehicle at 5am in Winter is not the most fun you can have in the bush. Which reminds me, the back of the vehicle gets the most air flow, if you want to be warmer, sit in the middle or near the front.
This July to October period features cooler weather and the summer rains have not fallen yet, which means less dense vegetation. Less dense bush means better wildlife sightings and cooler temperatures means the animals are more active during the day, resulting in better sightings.
Be advised however that this is by far the most popular time to go on safari and you will need to book your trip well in advance. There is certainly more demand than there is accommodation when we are talking luxury safaris.
South Africa is however a year round destination and if you are unable to travel during these peak dates, consult with one of our safari specialists and come up with a solution that better meets your needs. There is no shortage of options when it comes to planning an African safari vacation.
African Safari Tour Prices
The price of a luxury African safari tour starts at around $450 per person sharing nightly in the low season, and around $750 per person sharing nightly in the high season.
A great value location which offers a rich wildlife experience is Zambia. You can get terrific value here and it is not as busy as some of the more popular locations. This will change in the years to come as more companies start to promote it, so if you are looking for a great value experience, check it out.
Another important thing to remember is that many of the prices for luxury safaris include full board. This means that all meals and local drinks are included, often times even the more exclusive brands, depending on the lodge.
At African Safari Home we are often sent limited time specials that don’t make it on the website, so be sure to contact us and our consultants will keep you notified when they arrive.
Lastly it’s worth noting that many times it makes sense to stay at the slightly more expensive properties as they typically offer the best animal viewing locations. The Kruger Park for example, has an abundance of wildlife, but if you want to see leopard on your trip you should stay at the private Sabi Sabi reserve on the border.
Again, we recommend you contact us with your wish list and we will have an area specialist design a tour with the best safari options for your budget.
What To Wear On Safari
The best clothes to wear on safari are earth tones. Khaki is most definitely the dominant colour worn by guides and lodge employees and the perfect option for your African safari.
You don’t want to pack too many bright colours however as wearing a red shirt in the bush is not going to help you blend with the natural surroundings and remain discreet during sightings.
Evening attire is also very casual and there is absolutely no need to pack to impress. More often than not your guide will be dressed in cargo pants and a neutral colour button shirt, which is perfect for you too.
When packing for safari be sure to include a hat for the hot sunny days and a warm jacket, scarf or beanie if you are travelling in winter. The early morning and late afternoon game drives can get rather chilly, blankets are however provided on the game vehicle should you need an extra layer or two.
Cape Town is one of the world’s most beautiful cities and frequently voted in the Top 10 worldwide. The majestic Table Mountain forms the backdrop with the city surrounded by pristine beaches, quaint harbour towns and world-class vineyards.
Cape Town is located at the Southern most tip of Africa and is a must-see destination if you are planning a South Africa safari holiday. For more info on popular attractions see our Cape Town Information page.
The Kruger National Park in South Africa is one of the premier wildlife reserves in all of Africa, and boasts more large mammal species than any other, over 140 in total. The Kruger is also home to more than 500 bird species making it the ideal destination for an African Safari holiday.
The Kruger Park is easily accessible by roan or light aircraft and offers a large variety of accommodation types, from very basic to ultra-luxury five star. For more information visit our Kruger Park info page.
Victoria Falls is the world’s largest waterfall and is located on the mighty Zambezi River on the border of Zimbabwe and Zambia. This incredible spectacle of nature is one of the seven wonders of Africa and an extremely popular attraction for safari goers.
The Victoria Falls offers more than just a spectacular waterfall however, it is also an oasis of adventure. The area offers incredible white water rafting, bungee jumping, zip lining, cultural visits, tiger fishing, sunset cruises and much more. See our Victoria Falls info guide including safaris in the nearby Chobe and luxury African safari packages.
The Serengeti in Tanzania is renowned for Africa’s largest migration of animals, The Great Migration. This intense spectacle of wildlife in its rawest form is an experience that should be on every wildlife lovers bucket list.
The Great Migration boasts almost 2 million animals moving in a circular pattern through the Serengeti in search of greener grazing pastures as they follow the seasonal rain falls. The Serengeti is of course more than just the Great Migration, it is also home to Masai Lion, African Leopard, Tanzania Cheetah, Bush Elephant, Rhino and African Buffalo.
For more information on this sublime part of Africa with its never ending plains views and magnificent luxury safari accommodation, visit our Serengeti Luxury Accommodation and Info page.
The Okavango Delta in Botswana is one of Africa’s leading destinations for a luxury safari. This inland delta is teeming with wildlife and home to an estimated 200,000 large mammals, with large herds of elephant and buffalo totaling in excess of 30,000.
The Okavango Delta offers unique experiences like a traditional mokoro (dugout canoe) safari, where you can get up close to the animals as they come down to quench their thirst on the many channels and inlets of the Delta. For more information on this gem of a location including luxury safari accommodation, visit our Botswana Safaris page.
The Mara in Kenya, as it is referred to by the locals is a large game reserve contiguous with the Serengeti. It is named in honour of the local Maasai people and their description of the plains when looked at from afar.
The Great Migration can be viewed in the Mara when the animals move from the Serengeti to the south of the reserve typically from July to October. All members of the Big 5 are also present in the Mara as well as large groups of hippo and crocodiles in the rivers. For more information and luxury safari accommodation and packages see our Maasai Mara info page.
