The former CEO of Coca-Cola goes for months of visits in Africa: 78-year-olds have faced large whites and climbed with mountain gorillas and have no plans to slow down

Douglas Ivester knew that the Golden Savannah continent was the first place where the continent of the Gold Savannah continent, the continent of the Golden Savannah continent, the new game of the continent of the GIANT.

“My first trips to Africa, especially in South Africa and East Africa, it is reminiscent of Ivester’s interview because we have institutions Luck. “When I retired, I wanted to take my wife, so we brought together the first visit to Africa, who entered Kenya and Tanzania.”

“We have entered a daily medical institution, including a long assistance clinic. We have spent a while in schools, and talking about such art and such things, so many people and landscapes, so much like these things and scenes, and things like this.”

It has been more than 25 years and Douglas Ivester did the tradition of making a long time on the world and found himself again in Africa again along the way.

“Traditional people have called a bucket list of a bucket … I wanted to climb a trip to Rwanda to visit the mountain gorillas. Thus, we took a trip in the middle of the trip.” “I wanted to do Asia and walk in Asia and wanted to see what I could learn. So I did it.” He says he discovers Southeast Asia in 2017.

Of course, the pandemic put the annual holiday to stop sharply. However, it is now planning a 11th Rewild Safari on 78, Botswana and Kenya on Cards for 2026.

For the number of increased leaders to open iramRestart Safari, Darwin offers a chance to participate in the protection efforts of wildlife broadcast in Raya Patagonia National Park and planting trees in Madagascar and Sumatra. Don’t think like a holiday, Ivester warns.

Low landing

How much is this?
Ivester estimates that a comprehensive trip to a Safari camp will return $ 50,000, including airfare.

What is so special about Africa?
“I’m in Latin America, I’m in myself, but Africa is my favorite place because Africa is Africa. It’s so much different. It’s so different. This learns almost every minute of the trip.” Ivester says.

“As many learning experiences as possible, try to include many learning experiences. As an example, we were in South African Cape and we went to swim with a great white shark and a superior experience.”

“You need to walk a balloon on the big migration, you just need to live it. You can’t describe it to a walk in one of the camps in South Africa, but you should be able to be a little risk.”

I wouldn’t describe our trips to “our strikes. ‘Holidays are to rest and relax. We will move around and learn their lives and relax when they come home.”

Safaris has a good WiFi?
“This is a constant changing situation,” he said. “There was no response 20 years ago.

Any warning word for execs?
“My spare word is sure to plan every day and explore every day and understand what you want to do.” “A really good safari walk will probably take a year to plan a plan and a year. And if you saw this way, you will probably be a very successful trip, but you can’t make a type of moment.”

A 48-hour sample route

In late June, Mr. And Mrs. Ivester and his two-day special Safari Safari extract with Safaris’s reconstruction.

Day 1 Location: Little Kwara Camp, Kwara ReserveOkavango Delta, Botswana

Background: Kwara reserves shares the southern border with Moremi’s game reserves. From deep water lagons and thick papyrus beds, dry-district covers various wildlife habitats from dry-district scrub and mopan forests. Okavango’s permanent waters nested on the edge of the permanent waters, the five cane tents of the small Kwara camp rise to wood cover on wooden decks.

Morning: Soon a wake up in the morning – a delicate sound by saying “Good morning” outside the tent. After breakfast, we are participating in a specially designed soil cruiser for our morning game driver. The water is high in this time, so we often have to drive through water.

Tracker is scanned for the trail of the animals we are looking for. We are entering this cola, as a result, we find the little lion pride that finds. We watch the little lion chicks followed each other until they find their mother and start their nurse. The other two puppies joined their siblings, for their mothers are pleased in the shade.

Later, we are further progressing to scan the trees for a more unfavorable big cat. After a game driver, we will go back to the camp for dinner.

In the afternoon: We have a traditional Canondian Waterfall in Okavango Delta called Mokoro. The guide floating along the canals between the rules, the guide uses a long pole to walk Cryal clean water of the depth of two meters.

We enjoy the slip silence because we are watching different birds flying to us. Finally, we get to an island, where they end and walk thinly among the trees. Safari guide points to various trees and shrubs and explains how some of the local residents are used in the traditional daily life of local residents.

When we approach the end of the island, we find a team from the camp waiting for us. We book our drinks, enjoy some snacks and toast the sun as the western horizontal disappears.

Back with a motorized boat that comes before I get dark in small Kwara. We have time to shower before returning to the food area, where the dinner is served under the African sky.

The second day: Selinda reserve

Background: Not popular as the South Neighbor, Okavango Delta, an incredible 521 square mile in the Selinda reserve is a desert. Until now, a large number of migrants joined the permanent residents developing in these open savants. Different antelope species are found with giraffes, Warthog, Baboons and Vervet Monkeys. Lion, cheetah and stained Hyena are the main predators.

However, there are two wildlife that caused the release of the flood: Cape hunting dogs and elephan breeds of large breeders. Experts Protection of great plains Estimate that more than 9,000 elephants do their temporary homes during the dry season.

Morning: After breakfast, we take to the ticket and take a Cessna Caravan plane to the Northern Botswana for our flight. Our goal is to the Selinda camp and our goals are doubled: find horseless African color dogs and live hundreds of elephants.

We are the land and start our trip by twisting our tracker into the ground cruiser hood. Finally, the tracker finds something interesting and states that he is guided by sliding from the bush. We are sitting silent and hear the noise sounds. The guide whispers us that the recently close to our nearest of the Alpha woman recently caused her chicks. Dan, although we are secret, we see a handful of a handful of a handful of African-colored dogs that rest in the shade.

We continue to camp here, we are warmly welcomed here by the team. We each of us drink a refreshing drink after our cool wet wash clothes and journey.

After a briefing on the camp, we oppose “our tent” – for the next two nights.

In the afternoon: After lunch, we rest until the game driver in the afternoon. As we dragged the college, we come with a few minutes a few minutes, a flock of two elephants, two young people. Because we watched those who chew on the branches of the tree, the nurse inside the nurse in about twenty meters of baby elephants. We begin to return to the camp and encounter a big bull elephant as their evening approaches.

Our guide tells us that Bull is just going to the elephant groups we visited. Is to find any of their goals ready to grow. We are back to the camp. After the shower, as our guide summarizes the adventures of the day, and when we discuss the plans for tomorrow, we sit around the camp.

As we crawl into bed, we hear a different sound in the distance – this is the mighty noise of the lion of a man with its territory. Africa Bush is a perfect sound to finish another interesting day.
