Dawn in Mumbai shows you a different side of the city. The early morning fish market, where the fresh catches are auctioned off, the newspapers being sorted by hand and delivered, the fresh veg and flower markets. A wonderful way to see the day to day life in Mumbai.

Mehrangarh is a historic fort located in Jodhpur, and it stands on a hill above the old city, rising about 122 meters above the old city. It was initially built around 1459 by the Rajput ruler of Rathore clan Rao Jodha, but building didn't finish until the 18th century.
An absolutely beautiful fort and so educational followed by a quick walk through the village.

Safari Update #2:

The safari continues for the Moyles and Lagerberg's. 3 nights in Vic Falls for them to get their adrenaline fix! The Devils pool will sort that out!!!

A scenic helicopter ride over the Falls, swing across the Zambezi, white rhinos , sunset cruise etc etc - we don't think they slept!!!

An adrenaline packed day exploring Victoria Falls - from the very edge swimming in the Devilโ€™s Pool (only in Africa would this be allowed ๐Ÿฅน), walking around the Victoria Falls footpath, watching the boys do the swing and finishing up with a heli flight to view the falls from above. Just spectacular ๐Ÿ˜

Family Safari Update #2

In Virunga you can also trek to see the Golden Monkeys, which are always entertaining and cheeky & pose for pics!
Then onwards to Nyungwe National Park. On the way the Moyles & Lagerbergs become the most popular visitors as they handed out balls they had bought from NZ. A fun day for all. The girls got their boogy on with the locals!

The next day they set off trekking in Nyungwe looking for the chimps. The weather gods didn't play their part and after a wet & slippery trek they were rewarded with one chimp. An afternoon spent tea tasting & a bit of archery made up for it!

Love getting updates from this group. Next stop Victoria Falls ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ผ๐Ÿฆ›๐Ÿ˜

You can't get much better!

It was a truly amazing experience Linda - well worth putting up with some aches & pains for!
The family we trekked in to is Igisha - not sure of the area, but the furthest point that the tourist treks drive to.
Such incredible lifetime memories with & for our kids โ€ฆ.feeling incredibly grateful that we are fortunate enough to be able to do things like this with them.
Thanks so much for the work you have put in to our trip - it has been a fantastic start to our journey ๐Ÿ™

Yesterday was International Cheetah Day and World Wildlife Conservation Day, we think the cheetahs at Chitabe must have known that! What an incredible sighting to see so many together.
We were on an educational in the Okavango Delta in November and saw 7 cheetah. Chitabe is such an incredible area for cats.

A helicopter is a great way to transfer between lodges when you are in Botswana. A quick 15 min transfer between Chitabe and Eagle Island. Hippos, eles, buffalo- all trying to find water and respite from the heat.
You can see how desperately dry things are.

Sunrise at Victoria Falls- the best time of the day to be there- before the heat and the people. They never fails to amaze at any time of the year but seeing them when the water levels are seasonally low is quite something.

Love this feedback - what more could you ask for....

And here we are In beautiful Malawi. What a trip you put together for us Linda. Absolutely perfect. And finishing in Zambia with Brent for five days (most of the time just the three of us in the camp) is truly beyond words. Life changing for sure. He is a very special person - as Iโ€™m sure you know. You must spend time with him in Mwaleshi. An experience like no other. On foot with animals that are totally wild, not accustomed to vehicles or people in one of the most remote parks in Africa. How many get that chance! We are very very grateful to you โค๏ธ

And I am very grateful to everyone who chooses& trusts us to book their safaris.

Lynne and Murray have had the last couple of weeks in Zambia, the Lower Zambezi, South Luangwa and the more remote North Luangwa. They are now relaxing on the shores of Lake Malawi.
Thanks Lynne & Murray for sharing your incredible images.

Our Story

Getaway Solutions specialises in designing holidays, family safaris and expeditions in places we know and love, places that excite and places that change lives.

A Getaway safari is built on trust, on respect, and in many cases, long term friendships. Our relationships with our ground operators are both long lived and based on a mutual admiration for each otherโ€™s expertise. Everyone we work with shares the same vision as we do - visiting incredible destinations but holding conservation and preservation in high regard.

Our clients are largely either repeat business or personal referrals. โ€˜We are all one big family journeying in the name of Africaโ€™s great wildernesses with a desire to see, smell and hear the beating heart of a wild continent.
