AFRICA
The deep pulse of Africa may not be apparent as soon as you land in this ancient continent but before long you will feel it. A sense of timeless peace takes over and yet carries with it a strongly vibrant awareness of life.

Your Destination: Africa

Time is measured by the sun here. Dawn is an event, a joyous celebration of a new day, while dusk brings a lingering melancholy before the sudden fall of night and its own busy secrets. The gentle breeze is redolent of exotic scents and spices unique to each area, telling of the people and wildlife that have passed before.

Africa has something for every taste: The wide open grasslands and teeming wildlife of the Serengeti or Hwange, wildlife walks through indigenous Zambian woodland, canoe trips down the mighty Zambezi river or makoro rides in Okavango Delta, face to face encounters with the endangered gorilla, helping to build schools and friendships with children in rural communities, the vibrancy of African cities and the elegance of Cape winelands or standing before the unparalleled magnificence of the world famous Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe.

Africa is our birth-place and first home, so it is always with a sense of delight and privilege that we embark upon the planning of a journey to this most special of destinations. We visit often and work with wonderful local guides and partners on the ground to make sure that our clients are taken care of every step of the way. Simply put, we design a journey that is perfectly planned just for you. One that will excite, enchant and delight in every way.

Africa is a true “bucket list” destination.  Her appeal reaches not only to couples traveling together but also to crossing generational boundaries which makes it a perfect family destination.  Fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, grandparents with grandchildren, multi-generational families, friends travelling together.   Small exclusive groups and large student groups intent on learning and sharing.  Of course, Africa makes a simply stunning destination for that unforgettable honeymoon. With a range of accommodations of exceptionally high standard from quaint bed and breakfast to 5-star luxury safari lodges and everything in between, coupled with the variety of in-country experiences, there truly is something for everyone.

I wanted to thank you again for an absolutely amazing trip! Everything went so smoothly on a logistics end. The places and people you had us visit created a truly life changing experience – I’m still struggling to put it all into words. South Africa will always have a very special place in my heart and I look forward to the day I can go back. I am so grateful for you and this experience. Thanks again,
We wanted to thank you for planning such a wonderful trip for us. We thoroughly enjoyed it, and it was both relaxing and informational. We especially loved Florence and the hotel. It was so beautifully appointed and had wonderful amenities. The wine tasting was great. We had a great time at the Wine Estate with a tour and another tasting. We had an amazing time in Rome as well. Our hotel in Rome provided great service. Both of our tour guides were amazing! Thank you again!
We had SUCH a great time, sandals was awesome – everyone was so friendly and the food was great! Thanks to you and Su again for everything !! we had a wonderful time, and now are getting back in tune with the real world after a nice relaxing time – also – we are SO glad we did the scuba – now we are looking into getting fully certified. Thanks again!
We can’t stop raving about you and the wonderful honeymoon you planned for us! I ended up making one of those cute photo album books to show off our wonderful honeymoon! What a great honeymoon that was!!!! I wish I was back there in St. Lucia almost every day 🙂 I keep trying to convince Andrew to go on another trip to the Caribbean…. we are hoping maybe for our one year anniversary in mid-April! I know you are knee-deep in wedding planning right now, but I just wanted you to know that you gave us such a beautiful gift- a gift that both Andrew and I will remember for a lifetime. Thank you for being so thoughtful and good at what you do!
We had an amazing experience during our MBA Global Immersion course to Southern Africa (Zambia, Botswana and South Africa). Working with Keith and Lazy Lizard Travel was pleasant and everything was very well organized. Our group of students had the best comments and raved how smoothly everything worked. “Best Everrr!” were the daily comments heard throughout the trip which led us from a safari into big company’s boardrooms to the top of Table Mountain and more. I agree, best ever!
We had a great, great time in all phases of the trip – sixteen flights total including the sky safari, were all on time and there was no lost luggage. We enjoyed all the lodges, camps, safaris, and tours. We were treated royally at all the stops!
Just wanted to applaud you with a big “thank you” for all of your work in making our arrangements for our much successful trip to and fro to Scotland. We were well taken care of by your drivers, host hotels and golf arrangements. Again thank you and God bless.
It truly was a magical vacation, and the wedding itself was absolutely lovely! The location and quality time with friends and family was exactly what we had envisioned. Thank you (and your wonderful daughter) for all your planning, logistics, and dedication you put toward making the destination wedding a reality. Any family or friends that were hesitant about the idea in the beginning were converts by the end (including the father of the bride)!
Our family recently had a wonderful trip to three different countries in Africa thanks in large part to the planning done by Lazy Lizard Travel. We worked primarily with Su Holshausen to organize our vacation. She has a tremendous knowledge of the area and gave us many useful recommendations about where to stay and what activities to do while we were there. She also listened to us regarding the type of vacation that our family would enjoy and then arranged the trip accordingly. We did not have any problems with our travel arrangements (airlines, transfers, hotels and excursions) and it was good to know that we would be well taken care of on each leg of our journey. She prepared us well for what to expect and then gave us any necessary contact information in case we had any problems or questions while we were away. We would definitely recommend Lazy Lizard Travel for anyone who wants to visit Africa.
It was beautiful there! Just loved it. I was able to go diving in Praslin and it was wonderful. We adored Praslin and that hotel! We had a wonderful time! The beaches were gorgeous! I could see myself visiting again, hopefully soon. Thank you for everything!
