Winter Vacations in the Sun - Kenya
The warm dry climate of Kenya is perfect for a winter getaway. From majestic Mount Kenya which is great for trekking, to the pristine white sands of the coast which fringe the Indian Ocean, there really is something for everyone in this beautiful country.
Luxury Camping. The Masai Mara in Kenya is one of the best places in the world for viewing wildlife. Stay in large comfortable tents with all mod cons and sleep with the sounds of Africa all around you.
Hot Air Baloon Safari in the Masai Mara. See Africa's wild animals up close from your beautiful balloon, drifting above the endless grasslands of Kenya's Masai Mara
Treetops Adventure. Kenya's Outspan Treetop Adventure in Aberdare National Park is a world class resort for viewing animals in their natural habitat as they come to drink at the water hole.
Winter Vacations in the Sun - Australia
Australian outback town of Broken Hill is a popular and unusual tourist destination. It sits like an oasis in a vast red desert which is home to strange animals that have been here for millions of years. Nearby is a fabulous national park.
South Australia - Kangaroo Island
This is the place to see all kinds of wildlife: marsupials, koala bears, platypus and colonies of seals and sea lions. The perfect place to relax in a quiet rural setting - good beaches with safe swimming.
Humpback whales, dolphins as well as some of the best surfing in Australia. A huge attraction is World Heritage listed rainforest, Border Ranges National Park, one one of the most beautiful areas in Australia.
Ayer’s Rock (Uluru) is the biggest rock on the planet. This huge lump of stone is a spectacular sight. Travel south a bit to Coober Pedy where people make their living by digging for opals. Stay in a wildlife sancruary in the Flinders Ranges and do a bit of bush walking.
Winter Vacations in the Sun - South Africa
Kwazulu Natal is known for its game reserves but it also attracts those who are interested in military history, as the great battlefields of the Anglo-Boer War are here. You can have a self-drive safari experience as well as spend some time by the shores of the Indian Ocean.
