Join us for a private, privileged, and personalized entrée to the African continent, exploring legendary cultures, fascinating wildlife, and extraordinary landscapes. Meet with legendary African tribes, such as the Tuareg nomads of Mali and the San Bushman of the Kalahari. Come face-to-face with mountain gorillas, leaping lemurs, and the legendary animals of safari lore. Go "flightseeing" over breathtakingly beautiful sand dunes; walk among a forest of baobab trees; and marvel at the world's largest waterfall. And stroll the ancient temples and colorful markets of some of Africa's fabled cultural capitals. Throughout the journey, travel in the comfort of our specially outfitted Boeing 757 private jet; travel with a team of professional staff and top scholars; and customize the itinerary with your choice of options at nearly every destination. It's the ultimate in security, comfort, and service that makes this the trip of a lifetime.
