As more and more travelers return to Africa, Saperstein says, "they're splurging on things like scenic flights, private 'fly camping' for a night, and other special experiences" they might not have asked for in years past. He's keeping a close eye on many new properties opening across Africa, including Xigera Safari Lodge and Singita's Sabora Camp. Perhaps most exciting, he says, is the return of "Mara Toto Camp, which was washed away in floods several years ago. They now have four tents, all with comfortable en-suite facilities. This was done in conjunction with the launch of Mara Expeditions, another small tented camp, offering guests the opportunity to enjoy an authentic yet luxurious safari adventure under canvas in a private game reserve."

In total, over past seven years we've done seven trips, and each one was special and unique as a result of their superb planning, itineraries, and local affiliates who met us throughout the country. Everything went smoothly without any issues, from the moment we arrived until we departed. We would never consider making a trip to Africa without using Nina and Dan to plan it for us." - Harvey C.
