African safari by private plane

Travel in Africa presents many logistical challenges. As the task of merely getting to remote lodges is so daunting, most visitors limit their African safari adventure to one or two locations. And while private planes can simplify the matter, the cost for individual travelers is formidable.

That's the beauty of the safari I am about to describe. Exclusively limited to just 14 guests, with space for just two more couples, you get the incomparable convenience of traveling by private plane with the economy of being able to split the cost among the entire group.

The 18-day "stage one" will visit South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Tanzania. Those who wish to see more can extend for three days of gorilla tracking in Rwanda ("stage two"). The cost is $22,950 per person for Stage One. Add an additional $7,000 person for Stage Two.

Four fortunate travelers will be able to join this already-arranged tour. Dates are August 29 - September 15 (stage one) or until September 18 (stage two). Space is obviously limited, so contact our safari specialist ASAP if you're interested.
