- Celebs
Africa offers anonymity to just about anyone who travels there. Bill Clinton, George Bush, Michael Jackson, and Tupac might have a hard time getting around without being recognized, but just about everyone else can go incognito. If solitude, no paparazzi and no "Oh my God, do you know who that is!" is something are looking for, Africa is the place to travel. Part of the reason why we (the guides) like to travel in Africa is that it offers us a chance to completely step out of our identity and be nameless at times. We appreciate this feeling and will not compromise it for you either. Top
- Special Diets
Having a special (restrictive) diet should not stop you from traveling in Africa. For example, we can easily cater to Kosher or vegetarian diets. (In fact, we have a whole seperate business for Kosher travelers, www.kosherafrica.com.) If you are worried about the cooking process, food products or origin, and utensils used for cooking and eating, we can show you every step of the way to completely assure you that your diet is not compromised; if you would like, you can even join the cooking process! Aaron is familiar with the laws of Kashrut and consults an Orthodox rabbi for advice. The safari staff is made completely aware of restrictions and will go out of it's way to ensure rules are followed. And, nutritious, fresh and familiar food is always available including fresh local fruits and vegetables, fresh and saltwater fish, poultry products, and parve packaged goods. Top
- Couples
Interested in a romantic, private getaway or adventure. Part of what we love about Africa is familiarity with the most beautiful and intense places. We also pride ourselves on searching for the seldom visited vistas, the perfect restaurants, vast empty beaches, and romantic hotels and dreamy cottages. You would be hard pressed to find anything we can offer on typical tourist circuits. Our trips will completely blow you away (ask a previous client or check out their comments) And, our guides are more than happy to be at your service and at the same time in the background. Top
- Families
There is this conception that travel in Africa is not for families with small children. While adventure travel might be out of the question for small children, a safari vacations in Africa could not be more ideal for families. It is not "too dangerous" for a child to travel to Africa. When you compare the dangers present in the USA (car accidents for example), there is no way someone could argue one is more likely to have a problem in Africa. While there are medical issues needed to be cautious of, there is no way it is more dangerous (if these medical issues are addressed) than a typical family vacation in the US, it's probably less so. Also, many hotels are extremely accommodating to families with things like family rates, play areas, and special meals for children. Your child will be CONSTANTLY enthusiastic and engaged while on safari. Nothing is more exciting for a child than the prospect of seeing big animals. Travel in Africa is a very bonding experience for foreigners. For a family, it is ideal. Top
- Retirees
Retirement is a time to do the things that you always put off doing, that you should have done a long time ago. It is a also a chance to really see things in depth as more time can be devoted to a journey. As with any travel, the longer you stay, the more you appreciate what you see and the greater reflective opportunity you have to think about what you see. I (Aaron) took Normandie and David on a 45 day adventure in 4 countries (South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, and Tanzania). It was the most amazing trip to Africa I have ever experienced. I really appreciated being with them, because of how much insight they had on history, society, and true appreciation for living a long life and finally including Africa in it. Top

- Parties
We can throw parties in Africa for prices that would make you want to cry. In Africa, things are legal/illegal based on two things 1) the law and 2) who and what you know. We know how to throw parties. This includes extravagent weddings, bachelor/ette parties, birthdays, or just a rock star party. We aren't talking about just for an evening either. All you need is your imagination and good friends and we can also supply those too. We can have week long parties, events, you name it, we can do it. We have done it. My favorite was a week long party bus, we stopped in safari parks, rainforests, and cities, but every night we had catered food, crates of drinks, and music. One night we partied so hard, local villagers heard music from our hotel compound and decided to bring a band of 6 drummers, 4 dancers, and singers. The place was out of control. Top
