It has to be said that there’s something quite captivating about being on safari.

After recently returning from South Africa, on an unforgettable 8 day inspection visit of beautiful lodges in Sabi sands, I’m already missing the sounds & sights of the bush!

Each time I visit I’m reminded of the magic that makes this place truly extraordinary!
The quiet moments at sunrise, the thrill of a lion roaring in the dark, the hippos grunting through the night, and the sheer abundance of Big 5 sightings that the Sabi Sands is so famous for.

There’s nothing quite like drifting off or waking up to the soundtrack of the wild, especially when your lodge sits at the water’s edge.

This visit took me through a wonderfully diverse collection of safari lodges, each offering its own blend of style, character & unforgettable experiences.

Riverfront suites & ultra-luxury camps with intuitive service & intimate lodges, where the guiding is nothing short of exceptional.

Sabi Sands really does set the benchmark!

For me , these trips are more than just explorations- I consider them an investment in my business, and in my clients future adventures.
Being able to recommend from first hand experience is invaluable.

Whether you’re dreaming of a bucket list safari, or planning the perfect honeymoon, or simply craving the magic of the African bush, I’m here to help craft a trip that’s seamless & truly unforgettable.

Indian Ocean

A delightful dilemma-where will you choose?

There is no greater escape from the chaos of everyday life than the unhurried and unspoilt Indian Ocean.
Teeming with distinct archipelagos blessed with enchanting palm-fringed beaches & sun filled days- these islands are the epitome of barefoot luxury & blissful escapism.

When you think of the Maldives, do
images of Robinson Crusoe type islands with soft sandy beaches, turquoise crystal clear waters & palm trees spring to mind?

But did you know there are over 160 (& counting) islands to choose from & each and every one are so different from each other.

Each island offers something unique, from barefoot luxury, exemplary sustainable credentials, or outstanding marine life.

With international luxury brands such as St Regis & Ritz Carlton offering an island paradise for discerning clientele with excellent cuisine & service to match, there are also smaller boutique offerings that excel in a simpler feet in the sand experience, & a focus on its outstanding natural surroundings.

But how do you choose which island is perfect for you?

This is where I can play a pivotal role in selecting various islands that align not only with your budget, but with key features that you require for an optimum stay.

Choosing between all inclusive or half board?
A sea plane or speed boat transfer?
A house reef for optimum snorkelling or perhaps Padi diving?
Island hopping for a varied experience.
Kids club/babysitting?
Adult only or family friendly
Small island feel, or larger island with Padel/tennis/gym & entertainment, are all of the key questions I ask at consultation stage… did you know there is even an island that you can skydive into!

Having visited 4 islands over the last week,(19 islands to date) across the Raa & North Male atoll ,the island site inspections have been a hugely beneficial fact finding trip, whereby I can offer a wealth of up to date knowledge to help create your perfect Maldives trip.

Why risk leaving such an incredible holiday to chance!

A huge thanks to all the properties I visited for their warm welcome,kind hospitality & their amazing teams that work hard to ensure all our guests are well looked after.

After recently travelling to the Maldives and experiencing a piece of lost luggage for 7 days of an 8 day trip due to the Dubai weather fiasco, I thought it would be a good idea to share some ideas & hindsight which may help to ensure a more seamless experience on your next trip, and make life a little easier, should you experience the same.

1-Buy an Apple AirTag, and insert in your case. This was invaluable to us, just to know where the bag was. Despite it not moving from Dubai Terminal B for 7 days, at least we could manage expectations & not expect it on the next seaplane arrival.

2-Take a photo of your case & its contents & ensure it is locked before it is checked in.
When completing a lost luggage form, as much description of your case & it’s make is key, and a few pics of what was packed could help with any subsequent insurance claim.

3-Keep the baggage receipts on your boarding passes safe, don’t throw these away once onboard as this is vital for tracking your luggage- taking a photo of the serial numbers is a good idea just in case you do lose them.

4-Make sure you have adequate travel insurance, & check the policy to find out the value covered should your bag remains lost & you have to claim for its contents.

4-Keep all valuables/cameras with you in your hand luggage.
Keep chargers etc with you just incase you get delayed & need to recharge your items.
Also keep a good supply of medication with you in your hand luggage.

5-If you can, split your luggage with that of your partner/friend, at least you have a capsule wardrobe just in case of any eventuality. This is so important & could be a game changer.

6-Keep a few basic items in your hand luggage such as bikini/sarong/flip flops -great for also arriving early into resort before your room is ready.
Then you can change into beachwear whilst your room is being prepped & enjoy the sunshine immediately.

7-Book with a travel agent.
We can help with missed flights, missed sea plane connections,securing overnight stays & liaising with airport teams to trace your luggage & delivering it to your current location.

Happy travels :-)

Did you know…

BBC’s hit travel show Race Across the World is back!

I’m a big fan of Race Across the World and even more excited for this brand new series as it sees contestants travelling through some of my favourite destinations, including Japan, South Korea and Vietnam, before ending on the Indonesian island of Lombok.

Did you tune in for episode one last night to see this season’s contestants travel from Sapporo in northernmost Japan to Nara on the main island of Honshu?

As the teams journey 1,600km through Japan, watch as they stop in some of the best-loved cities along the way!

To celebrate the return of Race Across the World, we are delighted to be offering up to £400pp off a sensational Journey through Japan tour following in the footsteps of the contestants as they travel from Hokkaido to southern Honshu!

View the last image for costs on this amazing tour with specialist tour operator Wendy Wu or give me a call to discuss :)
