in the African bush, attending ranger training lectures, and tracking wildlife.

elephants on foot through the bush. These are the kind of experiences that you can
expect to have on this truly extraordinary, life-altering travel adventure.

Imagine sleeping under the stars in the middle of the bush where animals roam in and
out of camp with only an elevated platform to separate you," said Alexia Nestora of
i-to-i North America. "It was the best experience of my life!"
