 |
| Bedrooms are large and gorgeous, and even more guests can be accommodated in the shared living area |
Todos Santos Eco Adventures: The new Babisuri House was built to blend into the surroundings at Todos Santos Eco Adventures’ Los Colibris Casitas and provides beautiful, wheelchair-friendly accommodation with spectacular views. A cactus-garden roof keeps things cool indoors while keeping views intact for the Casitas. A spacious living and kitchen area is shared, while 2 large bedrooms have separate entrances and can each easily accommodate a family of 4. Guests have access to all of Los Colibris Casitas amenities including Iker’s Colibris Cafe, the Yoga Sky Deck, the gardens, infinity pool and hot tub. The house can be booked out as three different rooms or for exclusive use. Note: wheelchair access will be complete in approximately 8 weeks.

| Visitors to Mara Expedition Camp enjoy all of the luxuries at an amazing rate |
Albatros Travel: Great Plains’ Mara Expedition Camp is tucked away on a bend in the Ntiakitiak River in the north-central section of the Masai Mara. Set just inside the main reserve, it is perfectly positioned for the migration and provides easy access to river crossing sites. Combined with traversing rights in the exclusive Mara North Conservancy, the intimate, 5-tent Mara Expedition Camp offers the best of both worlds to your travelers. With reduced rates for the remainder of 2017 (no more than $660/pp/pn, even in high season!), Albatros Travel highly recommends it for your Kenya clients.

| Did we mention the gorgeous views from Gorges? |
Imvelo Safari Lodges: Zimbabwe has been topping hot lists for travel in 2017, and recently Africa.com published an article featuring its top places to visit, including Imvelo Safari Lodges’ Gorges Lodge. “It’s an absurdly easy association to call the fantastic Gorges Lodge… ‘gorgeous,’ except it really is… Each of the lodge’s individual rooms is delicately perched right on the precipice of the gorge, built into the rocky terrain with an elevated wooden deck.” Visitors can escape the hustle and bustle of Vic Falls town and are guaranteed an idyllic stay with magnificent views!
