Another perfect evening for a sundowner hike. It’s only October and the sunsets are already delivering special experiences.

Lions Head hike with sundowners. Who said hiking had to be hard work?
We’re proud of our hiking hospitality and grateful to be able to share the full gamut of South African tastes, sights, sounds, smells and textures in the Cape mountains.

Karen Hadfield and her dog Luck-luck live in a tin

Karen Hadfield and her dog Luck-luck live in a tiny desert town in Morocco. Twelve years ago Karen visited the country, fell in love with the country, the people (one in particular) and decided to stay.
She runs artist retreats from her guesthouse, Cafe Tissardmine; a place where creatives can immerse themselves in a culture and environment very different from their own, where there are no deadlines, commitments or obligations and where true Moroccan hospitality abounds.
Thank you Karen, for giving us a glimpse into your life and for receiving us with such warmth.

For more on Cafe Tissardmine, catch episode 2, season 7 of Where the Wild Men Are with @benfogle

A trip to Morocco is incomplete without a visit to the Sahara, complete with desert camp, camels and sunrise from the top of a dune.

It’s been a fun year for the hikers and trekkers

It’s been a fun year for the hikers and trekkers in our team and the travellers who have joined them, tramping the mountains; from Table Mountain in the far south to Mt Kenya on the equator and Jebel Toubkal in the far north.
May the journey continue ⛰

That feeling when you’re walking by, minding you

That feeling when you’re walking by, minding your own business and villagers rush out to greet you with songs and happiness. This is the Batwa. This is Rwanda.
Let us share one of our favourite countries with you.

Ait Ben Haddou, a traditional Berber city, was declared a World Heritage Site in 1987. Made from adobe from the surrounding desert, this ancient city has featured in many blockbuster movies and TV shows (think of the unsullied and Russell Crowe’s ripped gladiator biceps…)
We managed to clock 4000 steps wandering through the alleys and up and down the mud stairs to the top of the hill and back.
Add this to your next Morocco visit

Sunset over Essaouira’s bustling harbour.
This was once Morocco’s most important sardine fishing port, the little fish being hauled into these blue boats in huge, bulging nets. Though the port has diminished in importance, these family-owned boats still provide most of coastal Morocco’s fresh fish.

The hikes don’t stop when the cable car does..
For those who don’t want to walk up and down Table Mountain, there are plenty of alternatives.
This is one of them 😄
