The Bohuslän coast stretches from Gothenburg up north to the Norwegian border and some 8,000 islands dot the sea scape. Adventurers will love exploring the islands, islets, and rocky outcroppings in a sea kayak, slicing your paddles through the water from one fishing village to another.

Drivers…and Jennifer…Start Your Engines!

10 Things You Might Not Know about Giraffes
My favorite animal to watch while we were on safari was the giraffe. Seemingly ungainly and often the butt of bad jokes, I found them to be majestic and elegant creatures to watch. They are extremely curious and sure to steal your heart with their long necks, beautiful patchwork coat and lovable nature. Despite that […]
30 Stunning Wildlife Photos from Tarangire National Park
Did we have a favorite national park or conservation area on our SkySafari through Tanzania? No, we could never pick a favorite because each was special in its own right.
