DEAR T R AV E L E R Much is said about African wildlife—and rightly so. Nowhere in the world does such a primordial mix of terrestrial animals large and small coexist and interact in the wild with relatively little interference. Over the decades, National Geographic’s grantees have introduced us to many of the continent’s species and habitats, from Dr. Jane Goodall’s groundbreaking research on chimpanzees beginning in the 1960s to Steve Boyes’s unprecedented exploration of the Okavango Delta that wrapped up just last year. And with 54 countries harboring thousands of ethnic groups and compelling histories carved out of grandeur, tragedy, and hope, Africa’s cultural heritage is as much of a draw as its heralded animals. Our grantees have been at work in this domain as well: from exploring the spiritual traditions of voodoo in Benin to tracing the effects of cell phones and social media on pastoralist peoples in East Africa. We designed this new Africa by Private Jet itinerary to celebrate the continent’s many wonders—of nature, culture, and humanity. Traveling in the comfort and ease of a VIP-configured private jet, we’ll experience southern Africa’s incredible biodiversity on bushwalks, safari drives, and wildlife cruises in pristine wilderness areas in South Africa and Botswana.

explore an entirely different kind of art among the fantasy coffin makers, who sculpt whimsical custom-made coffins that resemble, say, a taxi or a fish. We’ll explore difficult chapters in African history as we visit Nelson Mandela’s cell on Robben Island and meet genocide survivors in Kigali—but we’ll also encounter inspiring stories of resilience, resourcefulness, and innovation everywhere we go. Accompanying this once-in-a-lifetime journey are three National Geographic explorers with fascinating stories of their own: conservationist Steve Boyes, primatologist Mireya Mayor, and wildlife filmmaker and photographer Sandesh Kadur. Between them, they have spent months exploring the African wilderness by dugout canoe, discovered a previously unknown lemur species, and rehabilitated a clouded leopard cub in India. Conversations are bound to be interesting! And we’ll kick the expedition off in the company of one of the legends of African wildlife conservation: Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and UN Messenger of Peace, who will meet us for our welcome dinner in London.

On the banks of the Zambezi, just upriver from Victoria Falls, the colonial-style Royal Livingstone Hotel is set among parklands often visited by roaming wildlife. Our home in Cape Town is the One&Only, an elegant accommodation on the stylish Victoria & Alfred Waterfront with Table Mountain views and its own private spa island. We have selected the hotels and lodges featured on this expedition for their exceptional guest service, splendid amenities, and convenient access to the places we explore. In more off-the-beaten-path locations, we have selected the best available accommodations to ensure your comfort. In many destinations, we have also arranged special dining experiences with traditional entertainment, providing a window into local cultures.

National Geographic Unique Lodges of the World is a collection of handpicked lodges that invite guests to experience the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most treasured places while helping to protect them for generations to come. In the South Africa bushveld, we stay at one of our charter members, Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve, set on the banks of the Sabie River. You may choose to settle into Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge (pictured left) or Selati Camp, both featuring thatched suites set on 15,000 acres of wilderness, and enjoy genuine South African hospitality and an intimate safari experience led by rangers and local Shangaan trackers.

After breakfast, transfer to London's Luton Airport and fly by private jet to Fez. Founded in the eighth century, Fez is Morocco’s oldest imperial city and its cultural and spiritual heart. At the Dar Batha Museum, examine the city’s artistic traditions, including mosaics, ceramics, and woodcarvings. Gaze up at the mosaic-clad Blue Gate and the bronze doors of the Royal Palace. Stroll the 13thcentury Jewish quarter, a picturesque neighborhood of carved wooden balconies and Moorish doorways. The next morning, step back in time on a walking tour of the medina, the largest intact medieval city in the world. See the splendid courtyard of the University of Al-Karaouine and meet a scholar at the 14th-century Bou Inania Madrasa. Admire the exquisite fountain in Nejjarine Square; visit the shrine of Moulay Idriss II, the founder of Fez; and soak up the enchanting sounds and sights of the souk. After lunch, choose to stay in the old city and visit artisan workshops including the Chouara Tannery. Or spend the afternoon at the ancient Roman site of Volubilis, a UNESCO World Heritage site set on the rolling plains near Fez.

Bid farewell to North Africa and fly by private jet across the Sahara to Ghana’s vibrant capital city. Thrumming with creative energy, Accra is a city both cosmopolitan and scrappy, where timeless traditions collide with the latest trends. Retrace history today at Independence Square, which marks the end of British rule in 1957; and at Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, a monument to Ghana’s first president. In nearby Teshie, visit the fantasy coffin makers—woodworkers who craft imaginative custom-made coffins— and wander among whimsically sculpted sarcophagi in the form of everything from race cars to chili peppers. A short morning charter flight brings us west to Takoradi, where we’ll take a scenic drive along the coast toward Elmina. Stop to visit a fishing village, and enjoy a lunch of local specialties at a beachside resort. Ghana’s shores are dotted with castles and forts built from the 15th to the 18th century when the Dutch, Portuguese, British, and other Europeans set up trading posts on the Gold Coast. This afternoon, venture into one of them: St. George’s Castle in Elmina, a notorious “slave castle” and now part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. The oldest of the European fortifications, it was built by the Portuguese as a gold trading center in 1482 and taken over by the Dutch in the 1600s. Tour the grand European quarters and then descend to the dungeons, haunting reminders of one of history’s most barbaric chapters. Later, visit the posubans of Elmina town, elaborate shrines with sometimes quirky decorations and slogans, originally erected by the traditional Asafo warriors of the Fante people. Drive back to Accra, and enjoy dinner in one of the city’s best restaurants. Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City

Fly south by private jet to Cape Town, one of Africa’s most beautiful cities. Settle into our hotel on the fashionable Victoria & Alfred Waterfront and sit down to a dinner prepared especially for us by a renowned chef. Weather permitting the next morning, ride a cable car to the top of Table Mountain, rising more than 3,500 feet above the city. Then split into two groups to explore the Cape Peninsula. One group will take a thrilling flightseeing helicopter trip to the Cape of Good Hope, Africa’s southwesternmost point. Examine the unusual flora of this vast nature reserve, and ride a funicular to the lighthouse at Cape Point. In the afternoon, return to Cape Town along the dramatic Chapman’s Peak Drive—one of the world’s most spectacular drives—and stop at Boulders Beach to see the resident population of African penguins. The second group will take this drive toward the Cape of Good Hope in the morning and enjoy flightseeing by helicopter in the afternoon. After a talk by our experts, gather for dinner with Nelson Mandela's former bodyguard in the elegant, wine-producing suburb of Constantia.

The following day, choose one of two excursions: ride a hovercraft to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela spent 18 years of his 27-year prison sentence, and tour the facilities with a former prisoner. Visit the colonial Castle of Good Hope, learn about the injustices of apartheid at the District Six Museum, and explore Cape Town’s diverse cultural heritage in the Bo-Kaap neighborhood. Or spend the day in the Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, and Paarl wine regions and visit wine estates for private, sommelier-led tastings and lunch with wine pairings. One&Only Cape Town

Fly by private jet to Johannesburg and continue on a charter flight to Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve, tucked within the greater Sabi Sand Reserve. Our home in this iconic wilderness is the Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge or Selati Camp— both part of the National Geographic Unique Lodges of the World collection. Stretching along the banks of the Sabie River, this private reserve allows for an intimate wildlife experience far from the crowds. After time to unwind at the lodge, set off in an open vehicle on our first safari, watching for the “big five” among the riverbeds and low woodlands of the veld. A guide and a Shangaan tracker accompany each vehicle, and the route is determined by the wildlife we encounter, whether it’s a leopard homing in on its prey or a family of elephants frolicking at a waterhole. Stop for sundowner cocktails as the sun sets, and watch for nocturnal creatures as you return to the lodge for dinner. Rise early for a safari drive at sunrise, when wildlife is actively engaged in morning routines. Enjoy a peaceful cup of coffee in the bush, listening to the sounds of the wilderness waking up, and head back to the lodge for a full breakfast. In the late morning, join a ranger for a walking safari to learn about the smaller flora and fauna of the region. Or pay a visit to a nearby community to learn about local culture and everyday life. Later, venture back out on an afternoon safari. Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge or Selati Camp

After breakfast, return to Johannesburg by charter flight and fly by private jet to Livingstone, Zambia. Here, on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe, the Zambezi River plunges off a high escarpment, tumbling some 350 feet into a narrow chasm and creating a mile-wide veil of mist and rushing water shot through with rainbows. After checking in to our hotel, experience the mighty Zambezi River on a private cruise. Look for hippos, crocodiles, birds, and other wildlife, and watch the sunset transform the landscape. Tonight, dinner is served by lantern light on the lawn of our hotel with the roar of the falls in the distance. Approach the falls on foot the next morning, an exhilarating close-up encounter with what the area’s indigenous people call the “smoke that thunders.” Then cross into Botswana by boat and drive to Chobe National Park, where our lodge is ideally situated on the banks of the wildlife-rich Chobe River. Relax after lunch before meeting some of the Chobe Angels, an unprecedented all-female team of safari guides that is shaking up an otherwise male-dominated industry. Head out with them to discover the wildlife of Chobe on a safari drive. Chobe National Park is known for some of the largest elephant herds on the planet, but its namesake river draws all kinds of animals to its shores, including Cape buffalo, cheetahs, rare antelope like the oribi and the sitatunga, and more than 400 species of birds. Our lodge uses electric safari vehicles, allowing us to silently observe the myriad creatures splashing and scuffling in the shallows. Enjoy a full day on safari—on drives or wildlife cruises—and end the day with a sundowner in the wilderness. Gather under the stars for a candlelit dinner at the river’s edge.

Settle into our beachfront hotel and, if you wish, delve into the labyrinthine lanes of Stone Town on a guided walk later this afternoon. Threads of Arabian and Indian influence are woven into the Swahili culture here, thanks to a long history as an Indian Ocean trading hub, and the architecture of Stone Town reflects this intriguing blend. Enjoy your choice of two excursions the following day. Examine the eclectic cultural heritage of Zanzibar on a walking tour of Stone Town and discover Omani-style archways and elegant mosques, and ancient houses with intricately carved wooden doors. Visit the Old Fort, built by the Omanis in the 17th century; and see the House of Wonders, a sultan’s palace that dazzled locals with its running water and electricity when it was built in the late 1800s. Browse piles of spices, fish, and exotic fruit at the lively Darajani Market and then head to a spice plantation after lunch. Follow local farmers into the plantation where cinnamon, nutmeg, and pepper trees grow, and sample tropical fruits like custard apple, star fruit, and rambutan. Stop in the Jozani Forest, part of Zanzibar’s only national park, for a chance to see Zanzibar red colobus monkeys, a rare species indigenous to the islands. Alternatively, embark on a snorkeling excursion on the Nyange Reef. Sail a traditional dhow boat a half hour to the reef and discover a variety of corals and marine species—from frogfish and sea turtles to shrimp and surgeonfish. Dry off for a picnic lunch in the shade. Park Hyatt Zanzibar

Fly by private jet to Rwanda, home to many of the world’s endangered mountain gorillas. Spend your time here tracking these fabled creatures, or remain in Kigali and immerse yourself in the riveting story of Rwanda’s people. Those who choose to see the gorillas will transfer directly to Volcanoes National Park. During a full day of trekking with local guides, learn about conservation efforts that have brought gorillas back from the edge of extinction. Experience the thrill of sitting among a group of gorillas, observing their fascinating social dynamics up close. On our final day, search for endangered golden monkeys with a biologist, and attend a talk by a researcher at the Karisoke Research Center, founded by National Geographic grantee Dian Fossey. After lunch, return to Kigali. Or return to Kigali in the morning, and meet a survivor at the Kigali Genocide Memorial in the afternoon.

YO U R T R I P M A K E S A D I F F E R E N C E The National Geographic Society funds research, conservation, and exploration, including a joint collaboration with Rwanda national parks authorities to recover and research the skeletal remains of deceased mountain gorillas, some of which were observed in life by the late Dian Fossey. The Society also helped support an innovative project to bring safe drinking water to rural communities in Rwanda.

Those who choose to stay in Kigali will visit the Akilah Institute, which provides higher education to women from all over Rwanda, and soar over volcanic peaks during a helicopter flightseeing excursion the following day. Then visit the Kigali Genocide Memorial to meet survivors and hear their haunting memories—as well as inspiring stories of reconciliation. Tonight, toast our grand African adventure at a festive farewell dinner. Virunga Lodge, Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge, or Amakoro Songa Lodge; Kigali Marriott

The Other Providers are solely responsible and liable for providing their respective services.

In recognition of the inherent risk of the travels and related activities in which the Participant is intending to engage, the Participant willingly and voluntarily assumes full responsibility for any injury, loss, or damage suffered by or caused by the Participant. National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right, without penalty, to make changes in the published Expedition itinerary whenever, in its judgment, conditions warrant or if it deems it necessary for the comfort, convenience, or safety of the participants.

In such a case, National Geographic Expeditions will provide the Participant with a full refund of the monies paid to National Geographic Expeditions for the Expedition. National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right to cancel a trip for any reason, provided National Geographic Expeditions notifies you in writing within seven days after the cancellation occurs, but no later than 10 days before the scheduled departure date. A full refund will be made within 14 days after such cancellation.

If National Geographic Expeditions makes a pre-departure “Major Change” to a trip, you may cancel up to 24 hours before departure and receive a full refund within 14 days after cancellation. Only the following constitute “Major Changes:” (i) a change in the departure or return date unless the change results from a flight delay experienced by the air carrier, although a delay of longer than 48 hours will always be considered a “Major Change;” (ii) a change in the origin or destination city; or (iii) a price increase of more than 10 percent occurring 10 or more days before departure. If a “Major Change” occurs, National Geographic Expeditions will notify you within 7 days after learning of the change but at least 10 days before the scheduled departure. If National Geographic Expeditions first knows of the “Major Change” less than 10 days before

departure, National Geographic Expeditions will notify you as soon as possible. If a “Major Change” which you are unwilling to accept occurs after your initial outbound flight has been completed, National Geographic Expeditions will refund, within 14 days after your scheduled return day, that portion of your payment which applies to the service not provided.

will cover personal accidents, medical expenses, medical evacuation, air ambulance, loss of effects, repatriation costs and all other expenses which might arise as a result of loss, damage, injury, delay or inconvenience occurring to the Participant, or that in the absence of this medical insurance coverage, the Participant agrees to pay all costs of rescue and/or medical services as may be incurred on the Participant’s behalf.

NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION: Participants are responsible for obtaining any documents required for their participation in the Expedition such as a valid passport, all visas, vaccination certificates, and any other documents. To participate in the Expedition, visas and/or entry permits may be required for some countries. Acquiring visas and/or entry permits is the responsibility of the Participant. Failure to obtain necessary documents does not negate the Terms and Conditions, and any extra costs incurred for rerouting a Participant due to travel without the necessary document will be the Participant’s responsibility. National Geographic Expeditions will provide information on the necessary visas and/or entry permits in pre-departure documents; provided that National Geographic Expeditions does so for informational purposes only. Participant must verify the travel documents required for his/her travel. National Geographic Expeditions is not liable for any damages resulting from Participant’s reliance on advice provided by National Geographic Expeditions regarding travel document requirements.

PHOTOGRAPHY: National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right to take photographs or videos during the operation of any Expedition or part thereof and to use the resulting photography, videos, or recordings for promotional or commercial use. By making a reservation on the Expedition, the Participant agrees to allow his/her likeness to be used by National Geographic and National Geographic–authorized third parties without compensation to the Participant. If the Participant prefers that his/her likeness not be used, he/she must notify National Geographic Expeditions in writing prior to departure of the Expedition.

BAGGAGE: On the private jet, the Participant is limited to 90 pounds of checked baggage in two bags (one bag of the Participant’s choice limited to 50 pounds and one wheeled bag that National Geographic Expeditions will send to the Participant ahead of time for use on the Expedition limited to 40 pounds), plus a few smaller carry-on items like a backpack and/ or camera. In certain countries, participants may fly on private light aircraft. Due to weight restrictions on these flights, the Participant will only be allowed one bag, provided to the Participant by National Geographic Expeditions, plus his/her carry-on luggage (including camera equipment). For international flights, the air carrier’s liability is limited to the actual value of the baggage but not more than 1,131 Special Drawing Rights, approximately $1,600 per participant, unless a higher value is declared at the time of check in and an appropriate excess valuation charge is paid. Baggage, when not handled by National Geographic Expeditions, and personal effects are at all times the sole responsibility of the Participant. AIRCRAFT: The private jet flights will be performed using a Boeing 757 jet with 60 VIP-style seats. The air carrier for the Expedition will be Icelandair, Reykjavikurflugvöllur, IS-101 Reykjavík, Iceland. National Geographic Expeditions and the air carrier reserve the right to substitute equivalent aircraft or scheduled service, if necessary. Participants who actually travel on scheduled service will receive only the protections applicable to such scheduled service. The Participant’s Expedition itinerary may include flights on smaller aircraft operated by local approved airline carriers. Seating on these aircraft will be economy or economy with limited business seats, based upon the configuration of the aircraft. INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS: The operation of these flights is subject to the foreign governments involved granting landing rights for the flight. If the air carrier cannot obtain these rights for any particular flight leg of the Expedition, that flight leg will be canceled and alternative arrangements may be made at the discretion of National Geographic Expeditions. Alternatively, the Participant may cancel his/her reservation and receive a full refund if a flight leg is cancelled prior to first departure, or a refund of the unused itinerary if a flight leg is cancelled after first departure. COMMERCIAL AIRFARE: National Geographic Expeditions may be able to assist the Participant in reserving commercial flights from his/her home city to London, England and from Rome, Italy to his/her home city, in the class of service that the Participant prefers. Please ask for details. HEALTH REQUIREMENTS: National Geographic Expeditions reasonably accommodates travelers with disabilities on all of its trips, but not all trips may be suitable for all travelers. For destinations outside the United States, any physical condition, diet, or treatment requiring special attention must be reported in writing when the reservation is made so that National Geographic Expeditions can determine whether or not reasonable accommodations are available, except as provided by Part 382 of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s rules, which are applicable only to flight legs arriving at, or departing from, a U.S. airport. Walking and climbing stairs are required in many hotels and airports to board the aircraft and for many excursions. Boarding assistance will be provided at all U.S. airports, the last foreign airport before arrival in the United States, and the first foreign airport after departure from the United States. If the Participant requires a slower pace, extra assistance, or the use of a cane or walking stick, and cannot participate in the Expedition at a reasonable pace, arrangements will be made for private touring at each destination, if necessary, at the discretion of our Expedition staff. Depending upon the nature of the arrangements, extra costs for such arrangements may be the responsibility of the Participant. If any Participant would like to forgo some of the scheduled sightseeing to rejuvenate and relax, he/she may feel free to do so at any time. Please call National Geographic Expeditions for further details if you require reasonable accommodation to participate on this Expedition.
