“Butterfield & Robinson creates unusual, active experiences, including bike and walk safaris in Tanzania and Namibia. Brad Crockett, who has seven years of experience leading tours from Mali to Madagascar, is its man in Africa. Walking trips in Rwanda and biking in the Cape are also itineraries at which the company shows an edge. For 2014, it is adding seven more African countries to its lineup. 866-551-9090; butterfield.com.”
“It’s a thrill to get the nod by a magazine like Departures, as they cover not only the best in travel but also food, culture and lifestyle—key ingredients to travel,” Brad says. “Most of the lodges and guides listed are people and places that I’ve looked up to and have worked with during my time in Africa. It is an incredible community and I’m honoured to be mentioned in the same pages as them.”
