Today is International Zebra Day, so we are celebrating one of Africa’s most iconic animals! 🦓 Zebras are a symbol of beauty – did you know that no two zebras have the same stripe pattern? It’s like a fingerprint unique to each individual! As a group, zebras are referred to as a “dazzle” – an apt name that reminds us of nature’s natural wonders! After all, you can’t have beauty without beauty rest—zebras can sleep standing up and even rest while staying alert to predators!

With Mount Kilimanjaro in the distance, it’s a picture-perfect setting for encountering these incredible creatures in the wild. For a more thrilling experience, venture to Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park, where vast, rugged landscapes are home to some of the largest elephant herds in Africa, especially during the dry season when they gather around waterholes.

Discover the magic of Africa’s ‘Green Season’—often referred to as the ‘Secret Season’ for its underrated beauty, fewer crowds, and often discounted rates. In East Africa, the green season includes the short rains in November and December and the long rains from March to May. In Southern Africa, it often coincides with the summer rains from December to March. The landscape transforms into a lush, vibrant paradise, brimming with life and color. This time of year offers stunning scenery, active wildlife, and a more serene experience with less tourists around. If you are the type of traveler who craves an off the beaten path itinerary – planning a trip during a green season could be for you!

Witness the awe-inspiring Great Wildebeest Migration. This year-long journey sees millions of wildebeest, zebra, and antelope traverse the Serengeti, with the famous river crossings happening from July to October, as they cross into the Masai Mara, and birthing season happening between January and March. A breathtaking testament to nature's strength and perseverance, and a bucket-list experience for travelers to Africa!

Happy World Elephant Day! Today, we honor the gentle giants of the African wilderness! Elephants are the largest land animals on Earth, known for their incredible intelligence, fascinating behaviors, and strong family bonds. These bonds are marked by genuine affection, seen in the way they comfort each other and even mourn the loss of loved ones. Witnessing these deep connections in the wild is a profound and humbling experience, a true blessing for those fortunate enough to see it. These majestic creatures can communicate over long distances using low-frequency sounds, and their remarkable memories help them navigate vast landscapes and remember vital water sources. Elephants play a crucial role in their ecosystem by creating water holes, dispersing seeds, and maintaining forest and savannah environments. We must remember to not only admire these magnificent creatures, but support conservation efforts ensuring they will thrive for years to come. We love organizations like and .e.s.c.u.e (Retiti Elephant Sanctuary) for this very reason!

Happy World Lion Day! Today, we celebrate the magnificent kings and queens of the African savannah! Lions are not only fierce predators, but they are also unique among big cats for their social structure, living in close-knit prides. These majestic creatures play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of their ecosystem by controlling herbivore populations, preventing overgrazing, and promoting healthy vegetation. Beyond their ecological importance, lions hold a special place in African culture, symbolizing strength, bravery, and royalty. There really is nothing like hearing the deep roar of a lion at dusk. We are always in awe when we get to witness their grace and ferocity in the wild. As lovers of wildlife and nature, we must protect them and their environment to preserve their magic for generations to come.
