Sundowners with Lucille

Mrs Beatrice Tollman is President and Founder of the luxurious Red Carnation Hotel Collection that includes three hotels in South Africa: The Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa which we feature in many of our luxury itineraries, The Oyster Box Hotel and Bushman’s Kloof.

Bea Tollman has been recognized for unparalleled levels of service, excellence and luxury across all of the collection’s properties and is renowned for her outstanding recipes many of which are featured in her cookbook “A Life in Food”. This book is a celebration of recipes that have either been passed down in the family or discovered while travelling, and all have been perfected from her personal experience and expertise in the kitchen.

We are pleased to feature some stunning images from our guest blogger JD Andrews who recently joined Lion World Travel on a safari to South Africa.

Thank you JD for this amazing pictorial journey in the Kruger National Park.

Safaris provide the ideal opportunity for tourists to meet fellow travellers. While enjoying a snack on the morning game drive, chatting over sundowners on the evening safari or around the fire after dinner, the discussion inevitably leads to travel experiences!  Recently I’ve met a number of single travelers and the topic of conversation has been the added expense of single supplements.

While some road journeys in Kenya may be a little rough and dusty, it’s well worth attempting at least one trip, as the sights along the way definitely contribute to the charm of this nation and provide insight into its culture and local way of life.
