Building An Authoritative Travel Blog

Authoritative blogs seem all the rage at the moment but what exactly is an " Authoritative Travel Blog ?" Well my understanding of the matter is it is a blog that is not only very informative to the readers but that the information comes from authoritative type people in connection with what they are writing about.

Hopefully my articles below will give an insight on travel and travel related experiences from all over the world from many authoritative writers as they have been there and done that.

Articles will be and are published often and this means current travel experiences and up to date places to visit. If you have also visited these places or wish to comment then please do so remembering this blog is intended to family orientated visitors so please be respectful.

I have seen many fears raised through my article site and feel that any traveller today that, for one reason or another, decides against travel insurance then they are possibly being a little short sighted. We do not want our boats to sink but are happy to carry life rafts. travel insurance is a similar idea. We do not wish to ever claim on it but if things go wrong as they sometimes do it is a benifit to have the insurance.

Luxury Safaris in Tanzania And Kenya - Adventure And Decadence Combined

By Peter Rodney

Luxury safaris? Isn't that a paradox? Once upon a time perhaps, but not anymore. Now it is possible to have all the rugged adventure of a real African safari while still enjoying the luxury of gourmet meals and pillow topped mattresses. That is what luxury safaris to Tanzania and Kenya can offer you.

Tanzania is a fascinating country. It not only has incredible wildlife and beautiful scenery but also has a rich history and many fascinating cultures. It has long been a popular vacation spot for the rugged souls among us, but the birth of the luxury safari means that even the rest of us can enjoy this great country.

You can get a customized itinerary that starts and ends at a time that is convenient for you. Whether you plan on staying a few days or several weeks, there is so much to do that you will never get bored. You may take the safari tours of the many National Parks. Theres Tarangire, notable for its large herd of elephants and unique Baobab Trees, or Arusha, where you can see breathtaking views of volcanic Mount Meru. Or you can safari in the Serengeti which boasts the largest concentration and variety of wildlife in the world. Don't forget, at the end of every day's adventures, you get to retire to comfort and gourmet meals.

At some point during you journey you may decide that you are ready for a little more civilized fun. If this happens you can always go to Zanzibar. Zanzibar is an island off the coast of Africa. It offers luxurious hotels, private bungalows and posh beach resorts. It also has an active nightlife. It may be just what you need to reintroduce yourself to the modern world.

Kenya is where the whole luxury safari experience began and it remains one of the most popular safari destinations in the world. The wildlife is every bit as varied as what you will find in Tanzania. Kenya also boasts miles of coastline and warm ocean waters.

Perhaps the biggest attraction is the great wildebeest and zebra migrations. It is an awe inspiring sight to watch millions of animals travel across the Masai Mara, seemingly as a single unit. Timing is everything if you wish to see the migration at its peak. Although the exact times differ from year to year, it is possible to predict the herd's arrival in a particular spot based on when it left the Serengeti.

Don't worry, if you miss the migration, there is still plenty of wildlife to experience in Kenya. Like Tanzania, this country has many other things to offer as well. The luxury safari allows you to travel through the wilderness by day and then enjoy the finer things in life by night.

Luxury Safaris are becoming more and more popular as a vacation choice. Recently they have become popular honeymoon destinations as well. If you are looking for adventure but still enjoy living the high life then a luxury safari to Tanzania or Kenya may be just the holiday destination you've been searching for.
