Off the southern coast of Mozambique, within the waters of the Bazaruto Archipelago National Park, lies &Beyond Benguerra Island Lodge. Tucked among indigenous forest and bordered by endless stretches of white-sand beach, the lodge offers a blend of marine adventure, tranquillity and warm Mozambican hospitality.

From snorkelling reefs and gliding across turquoise waters by kayak or paddleboard, to sailing the bay on a traditional dhow, every day invites a new way to experience the island. Venture inland on horseback or an island expedition, discover freshwater lakes and dunes, or simply slow down and soak up the beauty and abundant wildlife that make Benguerra so special!

We recently had guests travel to Tswalu, in South Africa’s remote Northern Cape, which sits on the southern edge of the Kalahari. It is the largest private reserve in South Africa, covering 1,200 square kilometres, with August and September being a prime time to visit.

Tswalu offers such diverse sightings, from big predators to some of Africa’s most elusive species, rare pangolin and aardvark, brown hyena, aardwolf and bat-eared fox.

Star Beds, guided walks, meerkat interactions, horse riding and so much more... this truly is a beautiful destination to explore! Tswalu Kalahari Reserve

In July, Richard was invited by Singita on a special reconnaissance trip to see their new concession in the Okavango Delta, Botswana. They purpose built a tented camp on a palm-filled island to host a small group of Singita partners.

We visited the nearly completed Elela (opening in December) which, to my mind, will be the finest lodge in Africa.

I’m planning a trip back there in 2027, there’s no reason you shouldn’t be doing the same!

Nestled in the heart of central Mozambique, at the southern end of the Great African Rift Valley, Gorongosa National Park is a remarkable example of what conservation, collaboration and commitment can achieve.

Through years of rewilding and restoration, Gorongosa has experienced an extraordinary transformation. This National Park stands as a powerful reminder that nature can recover, when people choose to protect it.

It is both wild and remote, with its wildlife now thriving as a result of this remarkable conservation and restoration effort.

Did you know, Elephants are among the most cognitively advanced animals on Earth?

They solve problems and communicate over long distances using low frequency sounds that travel for kilometres.

Their memories are exceptional with older matriarchs remembering the locations of water, food, and safe routes across landscapes they have travelled for decades, helping their families survive during droughts and other challenges. Elephants also form strong social bonds, they appear to comfort distressed companions as well as work together to care for calves.

And perhaps most remarkable of all, elephants remind us that intelligence, memory and compassion exist far beyond our own species.

Some of Africa's largest salt pans are so vast and so bright that they can be seen from space!

Places like the Makgadikgadi Pans in Botswana are the remnants of an ancient "mega-lake" that covered thousands of square kilometres thousands of years ago. As the climate became drier, the lake gradually disappeared, leaving behind enormous, flat salt-rich plains.

Over time, water evaporated but the minerals remained. The white crust of salt and other minerals reflects sunlight exceptionally well, making the pans stand out against the darker surrounding landscape.

For much of the year, these landscapes appear almost lifeless. But after seasonal rains, shallow water transforms parts of the pans into temporary wetlands, attracting flamingos, zebras, wildebeest, and a host of other wildlife.

What looks like an empty white expanse from space is actually the legacy of an ancient lake and one of Africa's most dramatic seasonal ecosystems.

Northern Kenya is home to the Samburu, a semi-nomadic pastoralist community whose lives have been shaped by this rugged landscape for generations.

Closely related to the Maasai, the Samburu are known for their vibrant beadwork, striking traditional dress, deep connection to their livestock, and rich cultural heritage that continues to thrive today. Their enduring way of life offers a rare opportunity to experience one of East Africa's most remarkable living cultures.

For families looking to experience the true spirit of Northern Kenya, Kalepo Camp offers something incredibly special. Available exclusively for private groups, it is designed for families to slow down, connect, and experience Samburuland together.

This is an invitation to discover a corner of Kenya where culture, conservation and family adventure come together!
