Hop over to one of our newest reels. 🐧
The beautiful Boulders Beach is one of Cape Town's most visited beaches and the only place in the world where you can be up close to African Penguins.
Just one of the many reasons why we love Cape Town, this adventure ticks the cuteness box ✔️

Tucked into 160,000 acres of private wilderness next to the Kruger National Park, here you’ll find @sabisabireserve EarthLodge: high on contemporary style and ultra sensitive to the environment. We love it because it’s the spot where Nick proposed to Ashley
📍South Africa
Top Highlights: 13 luxe suites each with private plunge pool, an outdoor boma with walls sculpted from tree roots, and a dining area overlooking a watering hole where you can sit back and watch game pass by.
Insider tip: make sure to book a pamper at the Amani Spa. Take time out in the Zen meditation garden. You’ll feel oh-so far away from the real world.

Among the many activities that come with safari in Botswana, quad biking is one of our favorites. You’ll want to check this adventure off your bucket-list: quad-biking across the salt-crusted pans of the Makgadikgadi. It’s exhilarating!

Mindy Roberts, @white.desert.antarctica CMO, back from Antarctica, shares her top 3 activities that are a must-do for explorers to this unique part of the world:
- do one thing that pushes you out of your comfort zone, maybe even scares you slightly. It’s exhilarating
- make sure to see the Emperor penguins. You’ll be amazed at how those little chicks survive in that wild climate
- and walk through the ice tunnels. The colors and sounds under tons of water and ice are surreal!
DM us for more info on how to make your dream trip to Antarctica a reality.

A place of isolation, iridescent blues, miles of water and ice, and where barely no rain has fallen for 1000s of years…this is Antarctica.
We asked our friend Mindy Roberts, CMO at White Desert, to tell us first hand about what it’s like to experience the coldest desert on earth.
“The most incredible thing when there’s no wind is the absolute silence. No trees, only a few birds, no hum of technology. We want people to come and see this part of the world, and be moved by the experience so they can talk to others about preserving these pure places.”
We’ll post more about Mindy’s trip, so stay tuned

One of the exciting things that happened at YPA last year was that we grew!

Obsessed with villas…and it’s a growing trend for 2022.
We scouted out the best of the private houses in Kenya during our last trip and love the diversity of what we saw, each making multigenerational family travel to remote African destinations more accessible.

If you've ever asked yourself why you should travel now, this is for you.
This is the time to show up for the people protecting the world's most wild places and Africa is waiting to be explored.

Time to unwind and here’s the view we’re thinking of.
@xigeralodge located in the watery wonderland of Botswana’s Okavango Delta, took our breath away but what we fell in love with most was the level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail. We attribute that to happy staff. The lodge employs 120 people to service 12 individually designed suites. Not only does that impressive guest-to-staff ratio make the lodge an absolute YPA favorite, but it’s especially admirable from a job creation point of view in a very rural area.
