Situated on the banks of the mighty Chobe River, luxury exists in harmony with nature at Cresta Mowana Safari Resort & Spa. This is a unique location from which to explore the magical wonders of untamed Africa. Plentiful wildlife, including herds of elephant, antelope, giraffe, zebras, lions, leopard and more, roam freely in the nearby Chobe Game Park. Sunrises and sunsets, with the Chobe river as a backdrop, are the stuff of dreams.

South Africa – Kapama River Lodge

Part of the Greater National Kruger Park, Kapama River Lodge is situated in the expansive Kapama Game Reserve. Enjoy a luxurious stay in modern accommodations, while surrounded by the African bush and wildlife at the bend of the seasonal Kapama River, set against the backdrop of the Drakensberg Mountains. 

Victoria Falls

One of the 7 wonders of the world and Africa’s greatest natural wonder

Victoria Falls is the largest waterfall in the world, based on its combined width of 1,708 metres (5,604 ft) and height of 108 metres (354 ft). It’s roughly twice the height and width of Niagara Falls.

Johannesburg

Johannesburg, South Africa’s largest and wealthiest city, is the vibrant heart and economic capital of both South and sub-Saharan Africa.

We will be staying in the Melrose Arch neighborhood, a gated suburb within the city, and is the safest area in the entire city.

What our guests say

Dear David and Adina,

We've been on many tours over the years, but this one was extra-special. The attention to detail, the "service with a (constant) smile", and the outstanding touring and catering were unparalleled.

We're so happy to have gotten to know you both and look forward to touring with you in the future.

Fondly,

Tamar and Jay Bindiger

You are wonderful guides and very special people. All your planning made for a wonderful trip.

Looking forward to more trips!

Thanks for everything!

Cindy

Many thanks for a wonderful tour of Iceland. You were both terrific guides and hosts. The food was fabulous, and the staff was TERRIFIC.

Bill and Toby Albert

Your scholarship and passion for the land and its history were very much appreciated. You helped us feel welcomed and valued as visitors to the Holy Land.

We particularly enjoyed feeling your excitement about the discoveries associated with The City of David. The ending ascent up the stairs heading to the Temple Mount was wonderfully moving, reminding us how anciently Israelites would ascend to the Mount to worship in the Temple.

Thank you…
for reminding me that deep inside I still have the joy of a child
to help me get through every single day.
Going with you to Iceland was like going to Disneyland for the first time.
