Pause and Ponder
Take time for yourself. In the hustle of everyday life, the moments of solitude and reflection are scarce. We’ve seen first-hand how Africa’s landscapes offer the perfect backdrop for this introspection.
From the serene savannahs of the Serengeti and Maasai Mara to the rhythmic waves lapping powdery-white sands of the Indian Ocean Islands, Africa is a sanctuary where time seems to stand still, allowing you to press pause and enjoy the moment.

Choose Your Tempo
Take time to do everything. And to do nothing. Africa, in its boundless diversity, offers endless possibilities. Whether you’re seeking a Big 5 safari or a peaceful retreat in a secluded lodge, our continent entertains every desire.
It’s a place where you can chase the sunrise on a morning safari in the Greater Kruger National Park, enjoy a helicopter flight above the mighty Victoria Falls, or even spend the afternoon sipping sundowners in the quiet company of Madagascar’s lemurs beneath ancient baobab trees. The choice to engage or to unwind is entirely yours.

Off the Grid, Into the Wild
Take time to switch off. In our digitally-dominated world, disconnecting is a luxury. Inhale the fresh, unpolluted air, listen to the wildlife symphony, and savour evenings where the only luminescence is from the moon and stars.

Venture Boldly
Take time to challenge yourself, to try something new. Africa inspires bravery and curiosity. It’s a land where you can conquer fears and embrace new experiences.
Picture yourself summiting Mount Kilimanjaro, navigating the watery tendrils of the Okavango Delta, dominating the churning rapids of the Zambezi River, or learning the ancient tracking skills from a Maasai warrior. Each exciting endeavour not only challenges the body but also broadens the mind.

Cultural Crossroads
Take time to gain perspective, to be selfless. Travelling through Africa, you’ll encounter diverse cultures and communities. These interactions offer profound lessons in empathy. Understanding their lives, their victories, and their struggles, you gain a newfound appreciation for the human experience.
Engaging with Africa’s people often inspires a deep-seated desire to contribute positively and make a meaningful difference in the world. It’s life-changing – quite literally!

Life’s Grand Scale
Take time to reflect, to broaden your horizons. The African landscape, with its timeless beauty and indescribable vastness is a mirror reflecting your deepest thoughts and aspirations. It’s where horizons are not just geographical but also personal, expanding your understanding of the world and your place within it.

The day will long be remembered by parents, teachers, sponsors, and all those who attended — which is fitting considering ‘remember’ is precisely what Khumbulani means in Xhosa. This was the theme of Western Cape Premier Helen Zille’s inspiring address.
For Premier Zille, remembrance is a two-way street; one that not only looks back to the past but one that extends into the future. She urged those in the audience to not only remember where we came from and the important lessons that we have learnt along the way, but to also remember our children and the legacy we are leaving behind for them long after we have departed.
Murmurs of affirmation and resounding agreement came from the audience as Mrs Zille spoke, not only promoting the importance of education, progression, and community unity but also the significance of the African principle of Ubuntu.
Attendees painted the tent a kaleidoscope of colours with traditional outfits being the order of the day. This warm atmosphere was only compounded by the sounds of a Marimba band whose joyful harmony reverberated throughout the tent during intervals while a chorus of song was sounded out by a community choir.
Despite Khumbulani’s inconspicuous beginnings in a family home over a decade ago, the three-story centre and daycare now occupies prime position on a corner block in Khayelitsha and has become a defining figurehead across the horizon of South Africa’s fastest-growing township. It cares for 300 HIV Aids-infected and affected children daily, as well as provides a support system and soup kitchen for the community in the area.
