Turkey

Turkey is known for its fascinating history, delicious food and diverse people. While we don’t specialise in tailor-made travel to this captivating country, we are running a fantastic small group trip here in May 2022.

The trip will consist of a spectacular boat journey from Istanbul, imperial city both of Byzantines and Ottomans, to fabled Troy – taking in Bursa, capital of the early Ottomans, the famed Dardanelles Strait and the battlefields of Gallipoli.

São Tomé + Príncipe

Situated in the Gulf of Guinea off the north-west coast of Gabon, São Tomé + Príncipe is an extraordinary destination for travellers looking to get truly off the beaten track and experience a very different side to Africa. The two-island nation boasts a breathtaking combination of natural wonders, including deserted tropical beaches, tranquil lagoons, dense jungles, pretty waterfalls and majestic extinct volcanoes. These diverse habitats are, in turn, home to an incredible variety of wildlife.

Egypt

With the mighty Nile coursing through its veins, a verdurous river valley and delta, barren desert landscapes and some of the world’s most magnificent, timeworn monuments, Egypt is a remarkable destination.

I have just returned from...

South Africa

South Africa is unlike anywhere else in Africa – in addition to incredible wildlife and guiding, it boasts some of the world’s very best wine and food. I continuously go back to enjoy all that this huge country has to offer as there is just so much diversity in terms of what one can see and do.

My next destination is...

Madagascar

This will be my first visit to Madagascar. Yet again, the African continent can offer something completely different that just can’t be found in other countries with regards to its fascinating indigenous flora and fauna. As a beach lover I am particularly excited to visit Miavana which looks utterly incredible.

Testimonials

"I just wanted to say how brilliant Millie has been. She has been helpful, informative, sensitive and professional - a star. Can't wait to go now."

Emma Fane

“Your parcel arrived this morning and I have just opened it - I am sat here in tears. I cannot believe that this is going to be my last opportunity to engage closely with Africa. The book is not too simple - I am still a beginner with some luck and a good tutor; and the silver eland is exquisite. Thank you so much. Thank you also for arranging an encounter with Peter and family - I will thank Annabelle when I see her. Of course you will get the usual diary with photographs which I hope will help to remind you of me (us). In the meantime, thank you to you and your team for providing all the wonderful experiences over the years that have made it so hard to say goodbye.”

Jackie Strong

"Thank you Millie. Everywhere we went we ran into someone who knew you!!"

Falcon Clouston

"Forgive my lengthy silence and a belated, if very sincere, thank you, for a wonderful two weeks in Kenya. Challenging but great fun, as ever. I love Laikipia and was very impressed with Serian but my absolute favourite of all our trips was Naibor Wilderness - buffalo, lions and hippos included. That is my kind of camp and provided a lot of the excitement of the trip (see the diary when it comes)."

I have just returned from...

Zimbabwe

In Zimbabwe, I spent some time around Victoria Falls and then went to Hwange National Park. There is plenty going on at Vic Falls and it’s a great place to acclimatise before going on safari. This was my third trip to Hwange and wildlife seems to get better and better each time. I must have seen more than a thousand elephants on this last visit!

My next destination is...

South Africa

Soon, I will be going to South Africa where I will be exploring the KwaZulu-Natal area and scoping out some beach spots. With the new direct flight from London to Durban coming in to place, this is going to massively open up this part of the country, so it will be good to experience what is on offer in that area.

"Have just blown in from the BEST holiday! Lucy and I had an amazingly lazy time followed by a lot of lunches and dinners. The hotel really is perfect in every way. The sun shone all the time and of course, Lucy knows everyone out there. Thank you, Cara, for doing it all so well."

I have just returned from...

Zambia

Zambia was the most wildlife dense destination I have ever visited. The daily sights and sounds can keep anyone entertained for hours. I miss falling asleep to the grunting of hippo and waking to the sight of elephant just metres from my tent and knowing that each day was to bring something special.

My next destination is...

Kenya

With its world-renowned reputation for being home to some of the original and best safari’s, I can’t wait to get a feel for why the country holds this reputation. From the Great Migration to the stunning coastline, Kenya holds something for everyone and I’m so excited to experience this.

"We sent Matt to Zambia and Zimbabwe in October on his first research trip. His total and heartfelt enthusiasm and genuine love of Africa and the bush reminded me of the excitement I felt on seeing my first giraffe over 30 years ago."

Private Houses

Staying in a private house in Latin America, Africa or Asia is a great way of experiencing an exotic destination, but with the comfort, privacy and ease of a European holiday. You have all the luxury and mod-cons of the classic villa or private yacht, but in somewhere altogether more wild and wonderful.

I have just returned from...

Rwanda

What an incredible trip this was! I was particularly blown away by Akagera National Park; I could not have imagined just how impressive the game-viewing here would be. Gorillas, chimps and an outstanding and private safari experience in the ‘Land of a Thousand Hills’ – what more could you want?

My next destination is...

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe has endured some turbulent times but it is fantastic to see just how many new camps are opening up across all of the National Parks here. There really is something for everyone with a growing collection of high end camps and lodges, as well as some fantastic authentic bush camps that we just love.

You are the BEST! Thank you."

You interpreted all of our wants and needs and it truly was a trip of a lifetime and something we will all remember for many years to come.
