My Trip to South Africa & Swaziland plus Victoria Falls including Zambia, Zimbabwe, & Botswana
August 8 - 21, 2015: My visit to Africa was truly awesome and amazing with memories and experiences which will last a lifetime! Make plans to go visit for yourself and you will fall in love with the place, the people, and beautiful creatures, big and small!
I arrived in Johannesburg on Sunday, 8/9 which coincidently was the celebration of National Women's Day in South Africa. Johannesburg struck me as not unlike visiting NYC. My driver from the airport acknowledged that the city is considered the New York City of Africa. Time to escape the big city and see the real Africa like the one I imagine in the movies!
We had the most incredible trip to Antarctica! Plus, we got a fantastic deal (especially considering how expensive expeditions are) and a free cabin upgrade. Prior to our trip, Michelle and Erin took great care of us and made sure we were good to go. Every element of the trip went smoothly with no surprises. Our ship, Ocean Albatross, was beautiful. The cabin was spacious and had everything we needed. The laundry service was cheap and fast (so there was no need to overpack). The food was great. The atmosphere was comfortable and casual (our style). And best of all, the staff and crew were so kind, accommodating and friendly. The guides and expedition leader were all amazing. We did so many shore landings and zodiac cruises, each one unique. There was no shortage of wildlife! We traveled with our 10 year-old son who had the time of his life. There were several other tweens/teens onboard. The guests were mostly a combination of families and solo travelers, mostly from the US. Overall, our trip was spectacular, a truly unforgettable trip of a lifetime!
