Decides to travel to Africa for the first time. What a better way to enjoy the occasion?!
Rebecca and Ben
We chose to travel to Kenya based on the ease of airline routing and ability to use miles for our flights. Flying from NYC to Nairobi was very easy. Despite our flight restrictions, we don’t think our trip could have turned out any better !
HONEYMOONERS RETURN TO AFRICA 22 YEARS LATER WITH FAMILY
Bowles Family with their Safari Guides in Hwange
A little over 22 years
ago, we exchanged vows and boarded a flight for a honeymoon in southern Africa.
We had chosen a 12 day participatory camping Safari in Botswana followed by a
few days in Cape Town and South Africa’s Western Cape province. An
all-inclusive beach resort or cruise ship was and is not our style. Our friends
thought we were nuts, but as the wheels left the ground following our trip, we,
without hesitation, agreed that we just HAD to come back.
Well,
life carries on and we started a family. A safari with 3 young girls seemed
daunting, so we hoarded and saved frequent flyer miles for that eventual return
we knew we would make one day, this time with the kids once they were old
enough to appreciate it. That time came in the summer of 2018. With our oldest
graduating high school in 2019, we felt we should pull the trigger before they
began to drift off, as kids tend to do.
I
just finished my second trip organized by Global Sojourns (GS), this time
with my oldest son, and I can’t get enough of the kind of trips GS plans!
As
a photographer (amateur but incredibly passionate), being away from
the crowds and immersing myself into the beauty nature has to offer
are important elements to a successful and soul filling trip. GS has
mastered the balance between the comfortable, the adventurous,
the exclusive experience and the gorgeous ‘must-see’ viewpoints.
Landscapes, wild animals, flowers, skies etc. have been offered unimpeded.
