Flights are excluded (international and inter-camp) and 2AFRIKA can assist. ‘Un-Beatable Botswana’ is an instant purchase safari simply due to space availability.

Our Journey to South Africa with 2AFRIKA
While looking through Budget Travel, I came across a grand trip for a grand price to Africa. We had always wanted to go, and decided this was the time to make our dreams come true. We booked the trip for late August and immediately began planning!
The day we boarded the plane, I think we were in disbelief. Twenty three hours later we arrived in Zimbabwe, tired but excited, watching the landscape go by, en route to our gorgeous lodge. Our first full day in Zimbabwe was a tour of Victoria Falls. The power of the water, creating its own rainbow, while surrounded by lush foliage was a sight many will never have the chance to experience. Later that day, we took an elephant safari. Cocoa and Stephen made a great team; hostess and guide! The next day we were guided through the 18-hole golf course by one of the helpful staff, and to our amazement walked through herds of Kudu and Water Buck, Warthogs, and Baboons, some of which hung from a volleyball net! It was an incredible sight and a great story for the golf enthusiasts back home!
As our trip progressed to Botswana, our first sighting of Giraffe on the side of the road was worth wide eyed looks, and kept us speechless, except for an occasional “look!” While staying at the magnificent lodge there, one of the most memorable aspects was a boat ride on the Chobe River. As we slid down the river, we passed lounging hippos, and crocodiles, various species of birds, and even monitor lizards. The masses of elephants drinking, crossing, and playing in the water, was more than photographs could capture, and as if to put an exclamation point on the day, the breathtaking sunset settled over the countryside, as we became part of the postcard.
Lastly we visited a Namibian village, learning the culture, and struggles of past and present from someone who lives there. The natives were remarkable, and it was a great way to end our days in Africa.
This life changing first trip to Africa included four countries, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, animals from elephants to spiders, and inhabitants of villages to huge cities, such as Johannesburg. It educated us, and brought awareness of a diverse existence. Thank you for the opportunity!

IN THEIR OWN WORDS - Back from Cape Town, Victoria Falls & Botswana

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CAPE TOWN
BOTSWANA
Kenneth Hieber arranged a trip for us to Africa. We intended to go on a photo safari only, however, Kenneth convinced us to take a side trip to Cape Town since we were traveling such a distance. Best decision we ever made!
Every aspect of our trip went like clockwork. South African Airways is a great airline - very service oriented and comfortable. All flights were on time and no luggage was lost! The on-site representative appeared on time every time.
While in Cape Town, we toured Cape Point, Hermanus Bay, Arabella Golf Club, a winery and, of course, Table Mountain. The city was beautiful, the views from Table Mountain were incredible and our hotel was very nice.
We arrived in Botswana via Livingstone and crossed the Zambezi River by boat and were transferred to Chobe Safari Lodge where we were greeted with a warm welcome and frosty mango drinks. Our room was very nice with a river view. The activity center was eager to help us arrange all safari drives, cruises, transfers, etc. Breakfast and dinner buffets were beautifully displayed and the food was wonderful. We tasted springbok, eland, kudu, etc.

What an experience!!
The safari drives were the BEST. On our first early morning drive, we came upon a pride of lions walking in the middle of the road. On our first river cruise, we saw many hippos, crocs, impala, and of course, elephants. All the drivers were very knowledgeable about the park and its inhabitants. We saw lions, impala, several species of birds, cape buffalo, kudu, puku, water buffalo, hippos, crocs, giraffes, dung beetles, monkeys, baboons, wart hogs and more elephants that we could ever count.
We took a day trip to Victoria Falls and made the 2-hour walk around the park. We took many beautiful pictures of this magnificent wonder. Impossible to describe the beauty. We also took a Village walk into Namibia. We were in five countries while there - South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
This was a trip of a lifetime for us and we have nothing but wonderful things to say about you and the arrangements you made for us. Africa is truly a beautiful place to visit and we bring home only wonderful memories. We have highly recommended you to friends and family and look forward to you arranging another trip to Africa for us.

BOTSWANA
My first trip to the African continent was so primal. Going on safari drives was like being a child in the month of December anticipating my Christmas presents.
Each drive was full of surprises and pure delights. My first safari drive was unbelievable! The first thirty minutes of the drive provided elephants lumbering across the river, sable resting on the savannah, impala’s playing everywhere, a handsome young lion looking full of pride, and then the piece de resistance - a breath taking leopard resting in the notch of a bare tree. It was like she was poising for her spread in Vogue! Not to mention the unexpected safari drive gifts were the range and beauty of the birds one sees.
Each game drive was wonderful – I was just as excited to go on the next game drive as if it were my first. The game drivers finally looked at me and said “You are going again?” My response was “You are training me to be a game driver.”
To be a visitor in the home of these wonderful creatures is so humbling. Living the safari experience is an unimaginably awesome. Seeing African sunsets just lets you know that everyday ends wonderfully.
Africa said goodbye to me with a parade of her finest animals on my last safari. Africa presented me the present of her big five – lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino not once but four times in multiples. Africa gave her best that early morning with dew on the ground and the sunrays just starting to show. Africa showed a rhino that was colossal in size. Africa gave me young lions just getting their mane fuzz along with young lionesses, mama and papa lion with baby lion twice over. Then Africa upped the ante by throwing in three beautiful leopards walking on the ground which even was a real “oh my god” treat for our driver – he had never seen three together at the same time.
Africa gave me a wonderful welcome on my first safari drive and made sure she gave me a siren’s call to return with the presents she presented on my last game drive.
Go and see these fabulous creatures and help protect them so others can get goose bumps seeing these creatures.

I just wanted to drop you a quick note. My wife and I have now returned from our "Season of Plenty" trip to Botswana/ Namibia/Zimbabwe and one night in South Africa. We had a great time and met many interesting and wonderful people, and loved the Chobe Safari Lodge as well as the S.A. Safari Club in Johannesburg.
Everything worked out very well and the only problem was that we had to return from our trip!
The only change we made to the planned itinerary was we upgraded our last Boat Safari from a group trip to a 3 hour private one so that we could see only the things that we wanted to focus on and it was an incredible excursion. We will definitely be using 2AFRIKA's services again in the future.

BOTSWANA’S BEST VALUE SAFARI
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2009
NEW YORK, NY
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2AFRIKA’s well known 7 day safari in Botswana (formerly known as A SEASON OF PLENTY) has been renamed PULA and relaunched as one of our primary safaris!
Now priced through the end of March 2011, PULA sells for an unbeatable $1,399 per person sharing accommodation + tax of $195. Single travelers only pay $449 more and kids under 12 only pay $849 + tax of $195
Included in the price is 6 nights’ accommodation, 16 meals, all overland transfers, 7 safari activities, a full day sightseeing excursion to the Victoria Falls and a morning Namibia Village Walk for a ‘one-on-one’ Cultural Experience
Adding value to PULA, 2AFRIKA invites its passengers to dinner on the Chobe River starting as of January 01, 2010. After a day’s safari activities, you’ll enjoy dinner whilst gently cruising along the Chobe River enjoying the African bush ‘night-sounds’. Simply apply promotional code CSL01 to your reservation request and we’ll treat you to dinner on the Chobe River at no additional cost
WHAT’S THE CATCH?
Absolutely nothing – but the ‘down-side’ to PULA 2009 / 2011 is that we only have space for 330 passengers at this amazing price. You’re encouraged to act with haste for once these spaces are sold, the price increases. That’s just 330 passengers – or 165 couples!

2AFRIKA NEWS – we understand!
SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 2009
NEW YORK, NY
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
No one understands the frustration of the Africa bound traveler like 2AFRIKA, INC.’s Founder & President Kenneth R. Hieber.
“Daily,” says Hieber, “I take endless calls from frustrated travelers who claim to be so overwhelmed at the volume of information coming at them from all directions that they want to thrown in the towel and give up on a dream!”
Kenneth Hieber started his travel career on December 1977 and has seen volumes of trends come and go during his three plus decade tenure in the travel industry. “You cannot buy 31+ years of travel planning experience”, said Hieber who has provided impeccable travel arrangements for leisure travelers and corporate executives alike. Hieber operated the corporate travel accounts for the likes of the U.S. Embassy South Africa, Mercedes Benz of South Africa, the South African Nursing Association, and the South African Bureau of Standards to name but a few of his major clients.
In the United States, Hieber has focused his selling skills toward his native Africa and provides a thorough, solid, well-planned itinerary for each of his valued passengers. “Often I find people to be impatient, wanting instant gratification as if 2AFRIKA were a mere search-engine,” added Hieber “But planning a perfect African journey takes time, and if you want to invest your hard-earned dollars wisely, you’d be well advised to extend a little courtesy and patience during the planning stages of your journey.”
Candidly blunt at times, Hieber ‘tells-it-like-it-is’ and if he sees a traveler veering off in the wrong direction, he has no hesitation to shuffle them back in line and make them rethink their strategy. Perhaps that is the reason that 2AFRIKA, INC. has become the successful travel institution that it has become. Travelers get to talk with Hieber directly and get first hand advice and knowledge that no amount of research can provide – least of all ‘instant gratification’ search-engines.
Recently, Hieber came across an article and felt it pertinent to share. “For too long I have felt isolated in my approach” he said, “but listening to and reading about the frustrations of today’s traveler, I come to realize that I am not at all isolated but very grounded in my approach to arranging journeys to the continent I know best”.
Perhaps that is why departing passengers write such meaningful messages – “I am so excited for my trip that I can hardly breathe! The agenda is beautifully detailed. I enjoyed the teleconference last Saturday. I feel like I am in very good hands. Thank you.”
And perhaps then, that is why the same person who wrote the message above concluded with this message upon her return – “Kenneth, I have returned from Africa. I am so gloriously happy about every aspect of my safari. My driver was great, informative, caring, and efficient. The lodgings were amazing. Even the weather was amazing. And Africa was everything and more than one imagines Africa to be. Thank you for all of your carefully thought out plans and arrangements. You are perfection! Carole"
Are Travel Agents coming back?
We have never gone away!
We have just been waiting for realization to come to its full fruition!
Kenneth R. Hieber

2AFRIKA, INC.
THIS IS THE RECENT REPORT WHICH INSPIRED HIEBER TO OFFER HIS OPINION
Online travel sites flooded with overwhelming options, all claiming the best deals. Extra fees nestled into the fine print amid blaring advertisements. Pounding 16 digits into the telephone after you've booked the wrong flight before finally getting a human voice.
A few weeks ago, Darin Kaplan, a tech-savvy 27-year-old California restaurant manager, clicked his mouse hundreds of times, surfing the vast choices offered by online travel booking Web sites like Expedia.com and Orbitz.com to plan his 28th birthday cruise to Mexico before he gave up in frustration.
"It's a cut-and-paste experience when you're booking online. None of these sites are going to tell me what I can do with different options," said Kaplan, who uses the Internet for many purchases, including his basketball shorts and music tickets. "Travel agents know what they are talking about. It's more comforting to hand my money to someone who has the knowledge and experience."
Some travelers like Kaplan are finding themselves defecting from travel booking sites like Travelocity.com or airline sites like Delta.com. They are going back to the travel agent, an industry that many industry experts once thought to be passé with the advent of online booking.
Fewer travelers are enjoying using the Web to plan and buy trips, according to a study last week by Forrester Research, a market research company. About 46 percent of U.S. leisure travelers enjoyed using the Internet to book travel this year, down from 53 percent in 2007.
Difficult site navigation and presentation on travel company sites and hotel and airline sites are causing a growing number of travelers to shift away from the Web and consider using alternative methods of booking travel.
"People are saying 'I don't understand my options, and I would like to talk to someone who can do all the searching and tell me what's available,' " said Henry Hartevelt, the analyst who wrote the Forrester study.
NEW YORK, NY
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
No one understands the frustration of the Africa bound traveler like 2AFRIKA, INC.’s Founder & President Kenneth R. Hieber.
“Daily,” says Hieber, “I take endless calls from frustrated travelers who claim to be so overwhelmed at the volume of information coming at them from all directions that they want to thrown in the towel and give up on a dream!”
Kenneth Hieber started his travel career on December 1977 and has seen volumes of trends come and go during his three plus decade tenure in the travel industry. “You cannot buy 31+ years of travel planning experience”, said Hieber who has provided impeccable travel arrangements for leisure travelers and corporate executives alike. Hieber operated the corporate travel accounts for the likes of the U.S. Embassy South Africa, Mercedes Benz of South Africa, the South African Nursing Association, and the South African Bureau of Standards to name but a few of his major clients.
In the United States, Hieber has focused his selling skills toward his native Africa and provides a thorough, solid, well-planned itinerary for each of his valued passengers. “Often I find people to be impatient, wanting instant gratification as if 2AFRIKA were a mere search-engine,” added Hieber “But planning a perfect African journey takes time, and if you want to invest your hard-earned dollars wisely, you’d be well advised to extend a little courtesy and patience during the planning stages of your journey.”
Candidly blunt at times, Hieber ‘tells-it-like-it-is’ and if he sees a traveler veering off in the wrong direction, he has no hesitation to shuffle them back in line and make them rethink their strategy. Perhaps that is the reason that 2AFRIKA, INC. has become the successful travel institution that it has become. Travelers get to talk with Hieber directly and get first hand advice and knowledge that no amount of research can provide – least of all ‘instant gratification’ search-engines.
Recently, Hieber came across an article and felt it pertinent to share. “For too long I have felt isolated in my approach” he said, “but listening to and reading about the frustrations of today’s traveler, I come to realize that I am not at all isolated but very grounded in my approach to arranging journeys to the continent I know best”.
Perhaps that is why departing passengers write such meaningful messages – “I am so excited for my trip that I can hardly breathe! The agenda is beautifully detailed. I enjoyed the teleconference last Saturday. I feel like I am in very good hands. Thank you.”
And perhaps then, that is why the same person who wrote the message above concluded with this message upon her return – “Kenneth, I have returned from Africa. I am so gloriously happy about every aspect of my safari. My driver was great, informative, caring, and efficient. The lodgings were amazing. Even the weather was amazing.

"People are saying 'I don't understand my options, and I would like to talk to someone who can do all the searching and tell me what's available,' " said Henry Hartevelt, the analyst who wrote the Forrester study.
In the brick-and-mortar travel agent model, a trained agent meets with the traveler in person or establishes a relationship over the phone.
These travel agencies began losing their monopoly on the industry during the late 1990s, when airlines began to sell tickets online and travel giants like Expedia.com exploded onto the scene, quickly gobbling market share by introducing the quick, do-it- yourself model.
In 1995, there were 37,000 brick-and-mortar travel agencies, according to the American Society of Travel Agents. Now, only 18,000 exist after many merged or folded.
"What the Internet has done is given us a nation that knows the price of everything and the value of nothing," said Bill Maloney, CEO of the American Society of Travel Agents. "How do you know if a hotel is actually a good value or if it's overpriced? You have these online generalists and these individual specialists."
Travel agent Nancy Cutter of Court Travel Ltd. in Charlotte, North Carolina, and a half-dozen other agencies across the country say they have experienced a surge in returning clients, who said travel Web sites were confusing and unhelpful.
In several instances, brick-and-mortar agents say they were able to offer deals at the same price as, and even undercut, the travel agent models, dispelling the belief that the cheapest rate is online.
Travel agents have deals with suppliers that can sometimes enable them to offer lower prices than on the Web. They also have time to cancel tickets for free, compared with some non-refundable tickets sold on the Web. Expedia.com said it recently waived the fee for travelers changing certain flights.
"Just because you can go out and buy Turbo Tax doesn't mean it's the best answer for everyone," Cutter said. "Some people will still go to an accountant. Booking travel can get complicated, and it's just not as easy as it looks."

AS REPORTED IN BUDGET TRAVEL REAL DEALS - JUNE 05, 09
REAL DEALS
Botswana & Namibia, Air/Hotel, From $2,099
This six-night trip includes guided game drives and riverboat cruises, plus tours of Victoria Falls and a village in Namibia.
Friday, June 5, 2009
The Real Deal Round-trip airfare on South Africa Airways, transfers, six nights' accommodations, 17 meals, three game drives, three riverboat cruises, a sightseeing tour of Victoria Falls and a Namibian village, entrance fees, and the services of an English-speaking guide, from $2,099 per person—plus $295 in taxes.
When Departs daily Sept. 12–Dec. 9, 2009; add $150 for Jan. 7–Apr. 30, 2010. While Botswana's wildlife is active year-round, October is a great time to go—it's between the tourist high season and the rainy season, which begins in November. If you're most interested in bird-watching, don't shy away from the rainy season, as the birds come out in full force then.
Gateways New York City; add $250 for Chicago, Detroit, Memphis; $275 for Dallas, Houston, Salt Lake City; and $325 for Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle.
The Fine Print Does not include taxes of $295 per person. Based on double occupancy; single supplement is $420. Maximum group size is eight people. Read these guidelines before you book any Real Deal.
Book By July 5, 2009.
Contact 2Afrika, 866/462-2374, 2afrika.com.
Why It's a Deal In a recent Kayak search, we found a flight between New York City and Johannesburg for travel in September for $1,047. For $1,347 more, including taxes, 2Afrika's package also coordinates accommodations and experiences that might be hard to book on your own—safari drives and activities (with an English-speaking guide, a valuable asset), most meals, and transfers—all in one booking. 2Afrika provides a 100 percent money-back guarantee if you need to cancel your trip up to 60 days in advance—and gives you the reassurance of working with a tour operator that specializes in travel to Africa. This package is one of five new air-inclusive vacations that 2Afrika has introduced because of lower airfares now available on South African Airways.
Itinerary Highlights After an overnight flight, you'll land in Johannesburg, South Africa, and board a two-hour flight to Victoria Falls. Then transfer to your base for six nights, the Chobe Safari Lodge. The next few days are devoted to game-viewing drives and boat cruises in Chobe National Park; there's also an included full-day tour of Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwe side. Boat cruises are along the Chobe River, where you will see indigenous fish and birds. The national park is known for its elephant population; giraffes, zebras, and buffalo have also been spotted there. Another highlight is a morning walk to a Namibian village, where you'll meet locals and learn about their culture. Click here for full itinerary.
More Add a stopover in Johannesburg for $95 per person. 2Afrika can help you book nights there or tack on another one of their safaris.
Before You Go U.S. citizens will need a valid passport; a visa is not required for travel in South Africa or Botswana. For the scheduled short visits to Zimbabwe and Namibia, you will need visas, which you can obtain at the point of entry. For Zimbabwe, expect to pay about $30 per person; Namibia's fee fluctuates but will probably be about the same. Remember that you'll have a tour guide to help you with the details. Read more about entry requirements on the State Department's travel fact sheets for Zimbabwe and Namibia. Read more about Botswana on the U.S. State Department's travel fact sheet or the country's official tourism site.

IN THEIR OWN WORDS – Just back from South Africa, Zimbabwe & Botswana – a report back from 2AFRIKA’s valued passengers
THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 2009
NEW YORK, NY
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Good Morning!
I just wanted to say thank you for this wonderful trip. Linda and I had a great time on kr² AT ONE WITH THE ANIMAL KINGDOM. She had a good taste of "Africa" (we saw lots of animals on safari) and I saw "new" things. (I had been to Tanzania); the scenery was beautiful, the people lovely, the animals were everywhere and the hotels and food were amazing. We were also introduced to Amarula! YUM.
Aside from one driver who dropped us at the wrong hotel in Sandton, we had no problems.
Thanks again! Viva 2AFRIKA!
