| Hello hello! "I wondered if something that only lasted two minutes would really be worth the trek around the world I had taken to see it." So writes Sheridan Williams, author of this week's exclusive article in the Travel Club and of course, this book on Solar Eclipses: where & when to experience totality. January is full of plans and bucket lists and so these words stood out. "If I tell you that those two minutes were more exciting than any other natural event I had ever witnessed, I fear you wouldn’t believe me. The challenge now, then, is to try and persuade you that experiencing a totality is something you must do before you die." Members of our Travel Club can read the full piece. Not a member yet?

Marvel at the Murchison Falls, where the Nile River squeezes through a narrow gorge, creating a surging cascade, and discover the Rwenzori Mountains’ snow-capped peaks, ideal for trekking adventures. And never forget the people. From the busy markets of Kampala to the rich traditions of local tribes, it’s time that more people added Uganda to their list of the best places to travel in 2024. Manya Africa Tours offers trips to Uganda. A popular example is their 12-day Pearls of Uganda Tour, which includes 1 chimp and 1 gorilla permit, plus 11 nights in mid-range or luxury accommodation. Madagascar Renowned for its unparalleled biodiversity, endemic flora and fauna, and pristine beaches, Madagascar stands as the world’s fourth-largest island, with three UNESCO World Heritage Sites and a 4,800km coastline with the third-largest reef globally. In the words of Sir David Attenborough, “Madagascar is a curious wonderland. It’s an unrepeatable experiment, a set of animals and plants evolving in isolation for over 60 million years. We’re still trying to unravel its mysteries.” Plan a visit in 2024 and experience the mystery yourself. Remote River Expeditions – Madagascar offers custom tours throughout the year. Their ‘Island of Contrasts‘ itinerary highlights the contrasts between the western dry forest and the eastern rainforest. Tours range from 5 to 21 days, with options for all-inclusive and half-board stays. Multi-lingual naturalist guides are included as part of the package.
