Sam's recent visit to Gorongosa National Park with Gorongosa Safaris showcased why this remarkable destination is one of Africa's most inspiring conservation success stories. Staying at both Muzimu and Chicari Camps, she experienced exceptional hospitality, outstanding guiding, and superb dining, with highlights including George's passionate guiding, informative presentations on the park's conservation journey, a memorable encounter with conservation visionary Greg Carr, and the fascinating pangolin conservation experience.

Combined with Gorongosa's thriving wildlife populations, rich biodiversity and uncrowded wilderness, the experience offered a meaningful and authentic safari that goes beyond traditional game viewing, making it an unforgettable destination for travellers seeking both adventure and a deeper connection to conservation.

Last week, the team had the opportunity to visit Goal 50 in Hanover Park, Cape Town, one of Uthando’s incredible community projects. They have already completed Phases 1 and 2 and are currently busy working on Phase 3.

The project has created a school for local children, built using recycled materials and tyres. Livingstone Safaris was proud to donate 10 tyres to help support the project. It is truly amazing to see what Uthando and the local community are achieving together.

Take a look at the incredible work Uthando is doing on the following link -> https://www.uthandosa.org/portfolio-items/goal50-eduhub/

On our way back to the office, we also popped into an Eye Love Africa event just around the corner, where we had the opportunity to witness one of their glasses handovers to members of the local community. It was wonderful to see another organisation making such a meaningful difference in the lives of people in the community.

We recently came across a new company in Cape Town that offers a unique experience for guests looking to explore the city from a different perspective. Tide & Seek, founded by husband-and-wife team Matthew and Serai Dowling, was born from their shared passion for the ocean, Cape Town’s coastline and its rich tidal-pool culture. The couple use their extensive knowledge to create immersive experiences that combine swimming, history, culture, ecology and storytelling. Their range of experiences includes guided tidal-pool adventures along the Atlantic Seaboard and False Bay, a Cape Point Tidal Trilogy, a Kalk Bay heritage and tidal-pool experience, cold-water immersion and sauna experiences, as well as special full-moon swims. We love that these experiences offer guests the opportunity to discover a lesser-known side of Cape Town while connecting with the ocean, making Tide & Seek a wonderful addition to our Cape Town offering for adventurous and experiential travellers.

Great Plains has recently opened Zamara Private, an exclusive-use safari villa set on the northern edge of the Maasai Mara. Designed for families and small groups seeking complete privacy, and a highly personalised safari experience in one of Africa's most iconic wildlife destinations.

Located near Mara Plains Camp, the villa features six spacious suites, expansive living and dining areas, an infinity pool, wellness facilities, a private spa and gym, and dedicated guide, chef and concierge teams who tailor every aspect of the stay to guests' preferences. Elevated views across the Maasai Mara, open-air spaces and suites with private decks and outdoor showers create a blend between luxury and wilderness.

Zamara Private offers an exclusive fully serviced private residence from which to explore the Maasai Mara's abundant wildlife.

Teresa and Melissa recently spent a night at the ever-popular Babylonstoren and came away thoroughly impressed by the breadth of experiences on offer at this iconic Cape Winelands estate. Blessed with beautiful winter weather, they enjoyed a site inspection of the suites, cottages and spa before settling into a spacious Two-Bedroom Fynbos Cottage, where the privacy, mountain views and use of an electric golf cart added to the experience.

Highlights of their stay included an insightful wine cellar tour and tasting, a memorable evening of exceptional dining and entertainment, and a visit to Soetmelksvlei, Babylonstoren’s immersive working farm that brings Cape farming heritage to life. From world-class food and wine to wellness, history and authentic farm experiences, they were struck by the sheer variety of activities available, concluding that Babylonstoren is far more than a Winelands hotel, but a destination in its own right where guests can happily spend several days exploring.

Singita Explore has been thoughtfully reimagined to offer an even more immersive and meaningful wilderness experience in the remote western reaches of the Grumeti concession. Available exclusively to one group at a time, the camp invites guests to slow down and reconnect with nature through an intuitive, unstructured safari where days are guided by the rhythms of the landscape rather than fixed schedules. Designed for families and friends seeking privacy and adventure, Explore combines understated comfort with authentic experiences, from fireside dining and traditional meals cooked over open flames to bucket showers and canvas tents that bring guests closer to the natural world. The refreshed concept places a renewed focus on deepening connections, encouraging moments of wonder, play, rest and reflection, while fostering a more intentional relationship with the Serengeti's extraordinary wilderness.

Juan recently had a wonderful lunch at Cape Point Vineyards and was very impressed by the overall experience. The service was excellent, with head waiter Mitchell providing attentive service and sharing his impressive knowledge of the wines. As a Sauvignon Blanc lover, Juan particularly enjoyed the 2024 Reserve. The beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, combined with the winter sunshine and spectacular views across Noordhoek Beach, made for a relaxed and memorable afternoon. Highly recommended as a lunch stop during a Cape Peninsula tour.

Thana recently returned from Kuganha Luxury Tented Camp in the Tankwa Karoo, describing it as a truly restorative escape where wellness, relaxation and nature take centre stage.

Located in a malaria-free area, just a three-hour drive from Cape Town or 40 minutes by private charter or helicopter, Kuganha offers a unique alternative to a traditional safari.

Luxury tented suites feature private wellness facilities, with unlimited use of all in-suite spa facilities and treatments included, alongside exceptional cuisine, all meals and beverages, personalised service and wildlife drives.

Thana highly recommends Kuganha for travellers looking to slow down, switch off and fully unwind.
