Specialties & Accreditations

Egypt

Having grown up in Egypt , I am very familiar with the destination. I have returned to Egypt on several occasions in recent years including last year as I strive to keep updated on this amazing destination; the oldest surviving nations in the world. Egypt offers more than just mummies and pyramids. It is a place of culture, history, music, sport, adventure, and so much more. It is a place that comes second nature to me in recommending what to see and where to go as I have enjoyed this intriguing destination, Land of the Pharaohs, Misr (Arabic for Egypt!)

Private Jet

Interested in traveling on your own luxury private jet? I have booked countless unique itineraries across the globe using a private jet charter outfitted with only business class seats. These scheduled tours often cover four corners of the globe: focusing on unique experiences like visiting a camel market in India; learning Kung Fu in China; or exploring the Serengeti in a mobile tent in Tanzania. Not only do these experiences offer an intimate and personal look into the most interesting regions of the world, but the trip guides are the foremost authority in their fields. Between becoming a certified private jet specialist and traveling overseas extensively and living abroad, I'm just the person to help you design your private luxury adventure. Call or email me today.

Safari

It's absolutely true what they say: there is nothing quite like an African safari. I grew up in Egypt, living there for seven years,and during that time I visited many areas in Africa. Since then, I continue to explore this spectacular area of the world . I have experienced the exotic of Kenya and Southern Africa, including visits to Victoria Falls, Botswana, Zambia, and South Africa. I am a certified Africa and Egypt Specialist and I was appointed as a Master Kenya Tourism Specialist by the Kenya Tourism Board; and a South African specialist by the South African Tourism Board. Call or email to set up your new adventure to this amazing part of the world.

Volunteer Travel

Dreading the same old sun and surf vacation this year? Let me introduce you to something entirely new: a vacation where you'll take home not just a souvenir, but an experience to last a lifetime. I've worked with many volunteer vacation groups over the years, and you just can't beat how rewarding this vacation is for both you and the community you'll be helping. It's the chance to give back by donating your time rather than simply writing a check. Depending upon the opportunity, you could find yourself building school rooms in Tanzania; reading to schoolchildren in Lubumbashi; or feeding cheetahs in Namibia. There are endless opportunities - call or email me today, and let me show you the way.
