September 2012
Greetings!
   Crater Lodge Bath

A honeymoon can be the trip of a lifetime, or even the seed planted for a lifelong love of travel.  Even better, a honeymoon in Africa can be the ultimate romantic adventure.  If you are planning a honeymoon for next summer, now is the time to get started, as some of the lodges used in our romantic trips can be booked a year or more in advance.

 

We have a variety of honeymoon itineraries on offer, or we can craft something incredible and personal that reflects your commitment and your hope for the future.  Take the pressure off of one aspect of planning for your big day and let us help you with the planning process.  We'll take care of every detail for you and be sure you have a trip that builds the foundation for a future full of happy memories.

 

Safari njema,

Images of Ethiopia

  

Nadia Salameh Dasenech 2 AAC client and professional photographer Nadia Salameh recently returned from our Omo Valley Tour of Ethiopia with a treasure trove of images. If you've ever wanted to peek inside the borders of this country, or see its regal tribes, you will be instantly transported through her photographs.

  

Nadia has a show coming up later this year in San Diego. The show is called "Faces and Places" which will feature tribal and wildlife images from her travels around the world.  You will find her work at Gallery 21, Balboa Park, Spanish Village Art Center, between December 19-31, 2012.  Until then, you can see more of Nadia's stunning photography on our Facebook page.

Celebrating Tanzania's Best

 

Tanzania celebrated 50 years of independence in December 2011.  To recognize this milestone, we are highlighting a special Tanzania itinerary every month in 2012.

Romantic Tanzania  

Planning your honeymoon but haven't settled on a destination? Our Romantic Tanzania Safari can make your honeymoon dreams come true!

 

Start off in the quiet countryside before heading to Lake Manyara Tree Lodge where you will spend your nights in a romantic tree-house, and can spot tree-climbing lions by day.  From there, travel to the incomparable Serengeti, where you have a choice of several luxurious lodges - we can help you choose the best one to have a chance to view the migration.

 

Cap off your special trip with time at one of the most unique lodges in all of Africa - the Ngorongoro Crater Lodge. Perched on the edge of the Crater with gorgeous views and unforgettable rooms - it's the perfect end to your romantic African adventure. 

 

If you'd like to learn more about this safari, or want to know what specials are available, give us a call.
