Collins, tour guide extraordinaire. Collins guided us around the Masai Mara, and many of the photos I took in the Mara were only made possible due to his professionalism, dedication and skills… four wheel driving, animal spotting, knowledge, and more. Thanks, Collins, for a fantastic time in the Mara!

Clouds encircle the lofty rim of Africa's Mount Elgon, a huge, long-extinct volcano on the border between Uganda and Kenya. The solitary volcano has one of the world's largest intact calderas, a cauldron-like central depression. The caldera is about 6.5 kilometers (4 miles) across and formed following an eruption, when the emptied magma chamber collapsed under the weight of volcanic rock above it.

Another reason for traveling are the landscapes you get to see during those trips. Here in Maasai Mara, we had a stunning view before the rain reached us.

We came upon this tiny, deer-like creature while walking from our safari tent to the main lodge one afternoon. Dik diks are nervous and rare to see up close, so we felt privileged to observe this one from less then 10m away.
