A Sample of Seminar Topics
1) East Africa
Kenya and Tanzania Safaris
From tented camps to the luxury of Mt. Kenya Safari Club, come and learn about all East Africa has to offer. Safari travel not for you? How about a cruise to the Seychelle Islands or scuba diving at a coastal resort?
2) Galapagos Islands
Nature up close and personal. Each island is unique in its variety of flora and fauna as well as wildlife. Choose from intimate 12 passenger boats to vessels carrying 90 nature lovers. Snorkeling with sea lions, bird watching, hiking through the rainforest of Santa Cruz, these are just a few of the many activities that await you in the pristine Galapagos Islands.
3) Greece and Turkey
Beautiful beaches, clear blue Aegean Sea, sight-seeing steeped in history, abundant nightlife and restaurants, and so many different ways to discover them.
4) South Pacific
Two weeks IS enough time to go to the South Pacific. We’ll suggest itineraries that will maximize your stay. Australia is a large and diverse country offering the traveler everything from the hospitality of its cosmopolitan city of Sydney to the remote outback to deep sea adventures at the Great Barrier Reef. Not to mention the less traveled rain forests of Darwin or the beaches of Perth. Stop in New Zealand to explore its North and South Islands or one of Fiji’s 350 islands!
5)Costa Rica and Belize
A lush, green, dewy tropical blanket envelops you, draws you in, intoxicates your senses…dive the world’s second largest barrier reef, go white water rafting, see a jaguar up close, explore the cloud forest. Not just a beach vacation.
