Paradise in Panna National Park
While many people heading off on a tiger safari will be on their first-ever adventure to see these majestic creatures, there are those who have been on multiple tours and just can’t get enough of them. There are some national parks that, while still offering a positive experience for the seasoned big cat watcher, might feel a little ‘tame’. If you want to step up your tiger watching safari to the next level, Panna National Park, in India, may offer an experience a little more out of the ordinary.
Panna National Park
For a ‘wilder’ tiger safari, the national park at Panna provides visitors the option of a less structured environment in which to experience the incredible diversity of wildlife that this part of India is home to. The national park is located on the banks of the Ken River, and is well-known as one of the most exciting locations in India for wildlife watching. Visitors to the park are presented with a rich variety of bird life and hoofed mammals. On the avian front alone, there are over 200 species of birds that live in the park.

Diving in the Red Sea
For many years, the Red Sea has, and continues to be one of the most popular diving destinations in the world. Its ever growing popularity has become such, that it provides a hub of tourism for all types of holiday makers.
All year around guaranteed great weather is just one appealing factor, as are the shorter haul flights from European countries into Egypt, that make for a more comfortable visit, and with the exotic feel. Its specific appeal for divers, and visitors wanting to learn, is understandable due to the vast expanse along the coastline, from the north of the country to the south and into Sudan.
It boasts hundreds of miles of rich coral reefs inhabited by an abundance of species, from the smallest of fish, to the larger pelagics. Certain species are most sighted at particular times of the year, due to breeding times and travel to warmer waters.
Snorkelers tend to quite often see marine life activity, due to the coral growing towards the sunlight. Learning to dive in the Red Sea has been a fast growing industry for decades, and more of a luxury compared to diving in the UK. The gentle distraction of colourful marine life during the early stages of the PADI open water course, is relaxing and adds to the experience. Many dive centres in the Red Sea offer beginners course through to instructor level. The open water course takes between 4-5 days, involving a combination of theory and practical tasks with a final written test. Day boats are also common for reaching dives sites that cannot be accessed from the shore, or are located a few miles out from the resort. Read the rest of this entry »
Alaska Birdwatching
Nome lies on the Seward Peninsula, jutting into the Bering Sea. It’s a frontier town in a world where few such curiosities remain. Accessible only by boat and airplane, bordered on the West and South by the Bering Sea, and the North and East by miles of trackless wilderness just below the Arctic Circle, Nome is a fascinating and challenging destination. During June, the midnight sun is at its brightest, the tundra is in full bloom, and the birds and mammals are breeding by the thousands. Nome has a road system of about 300 miles, primarily dirt or gravel roads, that allows exploration of the remote and beautiful high tundra of the Seward Peninsula where only birds and mammals roam.
Nome was a gold mining boom town at the turn of the century, and it still continues to produce significant quantities of gold. Our major interest, however, is in the huge number and diversity of birds that fly to Nome during the Spring to breed. Many of them, such as the Arctic and Aleutian Terns, fly thousands of miles round trip in order to nest in the high tundra surrounding Nome. Bar-tailed Godwits, a large shorebird, are believed to migrate non-stop longer than any other bird (about 7200 miles), and farther than any animal without feeding. It’s migration takes it from New Zealand to Alaska and back each year before it settles into the mountains above Nome to breed. The Bristle-thighed Curlew breeds only in the high tundra around Nome and the Yukon Delta. It migrates from Hawaii and other Pacific Islands. The tiny songbird, the Bluethroat, makes its annual pilgrimage from Southeast Asia where its only breeding population in North America is found around Nome.
It’s difficult to exaggerate the beauty and solitude of the tundra and mountains surrounding Nome. Unlike many national parks and refuges, where encounters with wildlife seem almost zoo-like, animals seen around Nome are very definitely unaccustomed to humans and very wild. Grizzly Bears, wolves, wolverines, fox, moose, muskox and other mammals are seen, but usually only from a distance. They are often encountered, though usually at a distance.

Benefits of Private Jet Charter
When you want to enjoy the benefits of traveling on your own plane, a private jet charter may be the best possible option for doing so. A private jet charter allows you convenience, flexibility and comfort and allows you to avoid the hassle of flying commercial. It also provides you with a safe, cost effective and reliable way to travel.
Why Choose a Private Jet Charter?
Many busy professionals or people who have a limited amount of time will eventually decide that their time is too valuable to waste fighting the lines at check-in and baggage claim, not to mention too valuable to wait out long delays. Of course, those who determine that traveling on commercial flights is a hassle typically will not want to give up traveling entirely or will not be able to give up traveling for business or professional reasons. This leaves these seasoned travelers looking for alternatives to flying on a conventional airline.
There are a number of different options for those who are looking to escape the world of commercial airlines, and it is important to choose the option that is right for you. Your choices generally include a variety of different ownership programs wherein you own your jet or finance the purchase of your plane. Another option includes a jet share where you have some type of fractional ownership interest in a plane. A Jetcard works in a similar way by providing you with the use of a jet, but it entitles you to the use of a private jet you share with others that may be owned by another party.

You’ll also see the new bypass bridge. Named in honor of former Nevada governor Mike O’Callaghan and Army Ranger Pat Tillman, this bridge is a concrete structure with twin ribs and it is nine hundred feet above Colorado River.

Exotic Beach Destinations for a Family Safari
Beyond the Grasslands: Beach Destinations for your Family Safari
The very idea of a family safari is all about the game. Scouring the savannah for a glimpse of the proud lioness, gazing in wonder at a herd of marching giraffes, their unmistakable silhouettes pitted against the setting sun, marvelling in slight fear at the ferocious horns of the cape buffalo. But when the search is done, the appetite for wildlife fulfilled, where do you head next? Beyond the vast expanse of Africa’s grasslands lies a collection of superb coastlines and paradise islands for you to explore. Here we pick three of Africa’s top family safari locations and suggest a beach destination for each to round off your holiday of a lifetime.
Kenya, South Africa and Tanzania
The countries of Kenya, South Africa and Tanzania offer superb safari opportunities for families, with a wealth of game parks and reserves and access to cultures rich in African tradition. Beyond this, they also offer fantastic beach holiday destinations. Often overlooked as a holiday resort, the coast of Kenya is a beautiful stretch of land complimented by the tides of the Indian Ocean. For a family holiday, the Malindi region is recommended. This clean coastal town is much quieter than the lively area of Mombasa and offers fantastic marine life thanks to the Malindi Marine National Park. After a South African safari, why not head to the KwaZulu Natal Coast, more commonly referred to as the Sunshine Coast. 600km of coastline run parallel with rolling forested hills and the Indian Ocean offers up wonderful opportunities for fishing, surfing and diving. A family safari in Tanzania can be perfectly complimented by a trip to the sleepy islands of the Mafia archipelago. Less frequented than the Zanzibar archipelago, Mafia island and its neighbours offer a relaxed atmosphere and leisurely pace of life after the energetic pace of your safari. Take the sandy roads through quaint fishing and farming villages towards the coastline and rest on the sandy shores as you gaze out at a brilliant expanse of blue. Read the rest of this entry »
