We are adding a few sparks to the blog this year that will broaden our scope a bit with news on places, topics and tours, the company and more.

Spark 1. Our weekly corporate blog will encompass elements from a larger cross section of our itineraries that feature dynamic places, people, events and activities.

Spark 2. Next month will begin an occasional series of stories from the travels of our Brand Manager, Deborah Kilcollins, who started traveling independently at age 19 and has experienced nearly 60 countries.

Spark 3. Of course, we will play Big Five’s version of Where’s Waldo with Where’s Ash & What’s he gotten into now? We will track our president, letting you know about his speaking engagements, webinars, client events and his more adventurous antics such as ziplining or whitewater rafting. Last year, he racked up 200,000 miles, a personal best, he says. Let’s see if he’ll break that record in 2020.

Spark 4. When it comes to Big Five and sustainable travel, you will not be disappointed as we keep you updated about today’s issues, ideas, progress made, and a range of topics on our three sustainable blogs: Safaritours.com, Galapagos.com and Visibleasia.com

We genuinely hope you will hit the road with us as we continue to set off sparks in the World of Big Five in 2020.

Thank you for your continued friendship and partnership. Happy New Year.
