Staying at the Elephant Safari Park Lodge has been incredible. We’ve just spent the last hour talking with the owners of the Elephant Sanctuary, and during this conversation, Nigel Mason invited us to join his wife Yanie in there recently acquired luxury helicopter with their reasonably new company – Bali Adventure Sky Tours to fly over […]
I’m relaxing by the pool at the 5-star resort we stayed at in Sanur, reading a glossy Luxury Travel Magazine. It is only now I read and learn about a unique Safari Lodge out from Ubud, and right here in Bali. Having done several Safari Lodges in Africa, I thought that experiencing one in Asia was […]
Explorason is a ten-year-old Australian boy. He has traveled the world to over 60 countries and is in his fourth year of world travel. Here is a ‘tongue-in-cheek’ article he wrote himself about his world adventures, and why they have ‘ruined’ him. “I’m 10. This is how a life of traveling has ‘ruined’ me”. Educating is […]
Thailand prides itself on its excellent service. The Thai’s are precise, punctual, and extremely helpful in most cases, and after a long flight from Kenya, Africa we were so pleased to finally arrive in Bangkok at our centrally located hotel in busy Bangkok. It was barely dinner time, but I hadn’t slept much in the […]
Hidden away off the north coast of Africa on the tiny island of Lamu is the small village of Kipungani. This sleepy completely Muslim settlement was once the thriving capital of Lamu Island – back when the Arabs used to trade from the north, and the Indians came from the east. In fact, it is Kenya’s oldest […]
“What A Load Of Rubbish,” says Explorason as we walk into a building and inside are piles and piles of RUBBISH. Immediately before us, there are barrels of BLUE plastic waste, collected from the local beaches. Recently we stayed at Turtle Bay Club in Kenya. Whilst we were there we noticed a board that listed […]
If you are looking for an utterly fabulous place to take a relaxing break where you are pampered and treated like family, look no further. Kinondo Kwetu is a huge old African regal homestead on the south coast of Kenya, and it means ‘Home Away From Home’, and it is just that. We spent several days […]
We are off to stay on an island where everything is different. Our arrival is different for starters – we make our way at low tide via a tractor and trailer – through the sea channel as the salt water laps at the giant wheels. Off to the side, a clan of baboons is feasting […]
Regency Hotel and Spa is where we have been staying the past few days, and one of the lovely animation team led five of the guests (which included us) for a guided tour of the small city of Monastir. It was a hot day, so we were glad it was only about a 10-minute walk […]
We have been staying at the top of Spain close the Andorra border. I picked this location as a place to stay very deliberately. We had always wanted to go to Naturlandia to ride the longest alpine coaster in the world, and today was the day. I packed away the passports and credit cards safely in the resort room safe, so […]
We have been staying for nearly a week at Le Meridien Pyramids Hotel and Spa in Giza, Egypt with one of the best views in the world – right opposite our room! Yes …… The great and many Pyramids of Giza! We have arrived here after a jam-packed few days at the Sheraton Miramar Resort in El Gouna, […]
Here we are – at the Nymphenburg Palace just on the outskirts of central Munich Germany, and it is massive. And I mean really, really grand and massive. In the immediate area is a beer garden and restaurants, and an area you could spend a whole day exploring. Munich has so much to see and […]
