Sometimes the destination you start with isn’t necessarily the destination you’re really looking for.
The more I plan travel, the more I find that the best alternatives come from understanding why someone wants to go somewhere in the first place.
So, have you considered Africa?
South Africa offers the combination of exceptional food, renowned w**e regions, and dramatic landscapes that draws travelers to Italy. The difference is that a South Africa itinerary can naturally extend into a private safari without sacrificing the quality or sophistication of the trip.
For travelers drawn to Costa Rica’s combination of wildlife, nature and smaller-scale properties, Kenya offers a more grand interpretation of the same idea. Exceptional camps and conservation-focused experiences put the landscape and wildlife at the center of the trip.
Patagonia appeals to travelers who want dramatic landscapes and the feeling of going somewhere genuinely far from everyday life. Tanzania offers that same sense of scale and discovery, with remote camps and vast wilderness at the heart of the experience.
Iceland attracts travelers who want to experience a destination through its landscape rather than through a traditional sightseeing itinerary. Botswana offers a similar sense of immersion, with the Okavango Delta and surrounding wilderness becoming the setting for the entire journey.
For travelers drawn to the scale and drama of Brazil’s natural wonders, Zambia offers a different expression of the same experience. Victoria Falls, the Zambezi and the surrounding wilderness create a journey centered on some of Africa’s most remarkable natural landscapes.
A great safari is about more than seeing animals.
It’s finding the right country, the right lodge, and the right rhythm for your trip.
That’s the part I love helping with.
