Sundowners with Lucille

The Lion World Travel Blog

Welcome to the blog of Lion World Travel's President, Lucille Sive. In this space, Lucille shares stories (both her own and others) as well as insight from her extensive adventures in Africa.

A sundowner, in colloquial British English, is an alcoholic drink taken at sundown. Think of "Happy Hour" while in Africa. It is common on the evening safari to stop for sundowners as the sun sets. Your guide stops at a scenic spot for everyone to enjoy drinks and snacks while enjoying the sunset and chatting about the day’s events, before continuing with a spot-lit night drive and heading back to camp. Stay tuned to this space for all you need to know about traveling to Africa, including casual chats with Lucille, expert travel tips, and recommendations.

Welcome to Lion World Travel’s new blog. The blog is entitled The Boma, but what exactly does that mean?

Picture a faraway romantic setting nestled between the breathtaking Twelve Apostles Mountain Range and the azure Atlantic Ocean. The Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa, surrounded by indigenous vegetation of flora and fynbos, is the perfect venue for a romantic wedding, a place to make memories that last a lifetime.
