What is our Legacy?

My Kruger Park safari last February inspired the question for 2018: "How can we travel with a purpose and leave a legacy for our children?"

TRΛVELBOECKER ΛDVENTURES  and our partners around the globe have been dedicated to preserving the natural habitats of our world, and I am proud to offer you the opportunity to support these initiatives, whether your travelling to Africa , the Amazon or the Arctic .

By choosing one of our sustainable journeys, such as the Rhino Legacy Safari , the Botswana Legacy Safari or our many other trips based on responsible tourism , you will contribute directly to the local communities and to the conservation of critically important wildlife. Join us in 2019 to ensure their success.
The Andean Pollera - all dressed up

As you travel through the South American Andes, a few things might catch your eye: the flash of a snow-capped mountain, a shaggy-haired alpaca or the vibrant clothes of the Andean women.
The beautiful skirts you’ll see are called Polleras . Made from cotton or wool and decorated in vibrant embroidery, their patterns, colors and designs change from village to village, and their story is a fascinating one.

With a little help from the local artisans you can learn more about Polleras and see how they’re made. You can even try your hand at embroidery. Ask us to include a studio visit on your next journey through Peru , for instance:

Explore Peru - from the Andes to the Amazon

Combine the 6 day immersion into the Inca civilization and a Pollera studio visit on our Machu Picchu, Cusco & the Sacred Valley trip with a 3 night Amazon river cruise aboard a 5 star floating boutique hotel, joining a long tradition of explorers on this great river.

*Book by February 27, 2019 and travel between April 1 and November 30, 2019 (subject to availability).
Where will 2019 find you?

The Oxford dictionary describes the word ‘journey’ as “an act of travelling from one place to another”. In my opinion the true meaning cannot be found on a page – but rather on the path.

Whether that path consists of a dirt road in a wildlife reserve, cobble-stoned streets in Europe or camel tracks through the Moroccan Sahara, a journey is defined by the people you encounter, the wildlife you experience, the culture you delve into, the cuisine you sample and, hopefully, the surprises that delight you along the way. And we’ve got a taste of adventure to tempt any palate.
I look forward to another great year of adventures ahead, and putting you on the right path, wherever the journey takes you in 2019.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
