Twice a year, we organize adventures for Mike's groups. Here's his recent trip to India! Thanks for sharing, Mike.

Check out the incredible YouTube video created by Paul + Sherri who traveled aboard the Dewi Nusantara to Raja Ampat (Dec 2024). Thank you for sharing! 

Dewi Nusantara 

It is a long journey from San Franisco to Southern Africa, but totally worth it. Upon arriving in Jo’burg we connected right away to our flight to Maun. Upon arrival our diver was there to meet us with his huge African smile to transfer us the 2+ hours to the gate of Nxai Pan National Park where we would meet your guide for our time with African Bush Camps at their Adventure Camp in Nxai Pan. What a great setup with a maximum of 4 tents (we were the only ones there at the time) and a wonderful staff.

The whole family joined us for a big romp around Thailand this holiday. We did many of the awesome things to do in Bangkok — Floating Markets, Muay Thai boxing classes, hidden bars, Wat Pho, High Tea, bustling weekend market scavenger hunt and so much more. Then, we took the overnight train to Chiang Mai and stayed at the charming Tamarind Village Resort. We loved this place — so traditional, friendly and in a great location to explore the city.

I’ve recently moved to Bangkok so often I feel like a tourist in my own town. There’s no better way to play tourist than when old friends come to visit. Recently, 3 dear pals spent 9 days in Thailand. We showed them our favorite places to go in Bangkok and discovered some new ones as well. During our 3 days in town, we explored various Wats (temples), marveled at giant reclining and sitting Buddhas, took TukTuk and long-tail boat rides, sampled fabulous Thai food and hit the rooftop bars for nightcaps.

Arriving into Nairobi at midnight was a pleasure as there was no traffic as I was rushed to my hotel, Hemingways, for an overnight before meeting the group in the morning.  A lovely stately hotel set on beautiful grounds.

Stepping off the plane in Africa is a feeling all of it’s own. The sight of the dry bush, sounds of the cicadas in the distance and the smell of Africa fills the senses.
