There could be nothing like the arrival of a little boy to focus me in laser-like fashion on family and multi-generational Safari travel. The options are staggering: junior ranger programs, classes for making traditional arts and crafts, cooking school (Bushveld pizza and patisserie!)…all educational and immersive. The key question is age appropriateness and the best fit between a particular lodge/platform with a family’s particular dynamic and we are very happy to advise. I think that our knowledge of options, direct connections to suppliers and the ability to curate several experiences into one itinerary will elevate any family adventure!

Travel Sommelier has a new ‘home’

As of December 2016 we have relocated to the picturesque coastal town of Duxbury, MA. Please feel free to visit our offices, there is always a map to survey and a fine glass of wine available. In the spirit of ‘home is where the heart is’, and the reality that our business is conducted irrespective of our physical location, we are as much in Massachusetts as we are in Connecticut, New York or anywhere in the USA for that matter! Here are the new digs, quintessential New England!

We will be launching Madagascar in full-fledged fashion right away and I can’t wait. I have not been this excited about a destination in a very long time. This will be my second trip to the world’s 4th largest island which has fauna and flora that exists nowhere else in the world (80% of species are endemic). The island is unspoiled and is the vanguard for travelers looking for the next frontier: wide avenues of vast Boabab trees; marine reserves that redefine pristine oceanic culture above and below the surface; monolithic mountain ranges shrouded in virgin rainforest; the awe inspiring Tsingy; an excellent food culture, a legacy of the French colonial era; and 100+ species of Lemur. My first stop is Miavana, pictured below…I will keep you posted from afar!
