African adventure – Zimbabwe, South Africa and Mozambique

Thanks for organising our family’s wonderful, varied and fascinating trip to Zimbabwe, South Africa and Mozambique this summer.

After an emotional reunion with our 15 year old son in Jo’burg airport we headed to Victoria Falls for our charming Batonka Lodge stay.

Then followed Falls visits, boat trips, high drama and crazy dare-devil hi wire gorge swing antics and much more – thanks for all the excellent tips.

The helicopter flight over the Falls was a highlight – truly an experience of a lifetime.

Then onto South Africa for a fabulous stay in Three Trees Lodge at Spioenkop near the Drakensburg mountains, one of the most heart-warming, wonderful places to stay we have ever experienced.

Thank you for ‘forcing’ us to go to Fugitives Drift for the Zulu battlefields tour – totally absorbing and memorable. Managed to ‘bag the big 5’ at Thanda Tented Lodge – great safari! Finishing our holiday in Isla de Mozambique was truly eye-opening and fascinating – incredible fading glory and a Robinson Crusoe beach experience at Coral Lodge.

Thanks for putting up with my family’s ‘lateral’ expectations – you handled us admirably!
