Masai Mara NP, Mt. Kenya
In the words of Karen Blixen, author of "Out of Africa"&emdash; "There's something about safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne". Not only will this tour intoxicate you with an unforgettable opportunity to experience Kenya's wildlife, it will offer you a unique opportunity to meet some of its people, visit a noted landmark and to marvel at its splendid natural resources.Marlene Melton and AFRICAN VENTURES INC, MAY 20 - 24, 2005, $ 950.00*

Seychelles
Your visit to The Seychelles would not be complete without a visit to Praslin and La Digue. These two spectacular islands can be reached by hydro-ferry or small aircraft and are well worth the trip! On Praslin, you can visit the Vallee de Mai and see spectacular rain forests full of exotic vegetation and birds. On La Digue, you can enjoy the fantastic beaches with unusual rock formations. Overall, The Seychelles is a very safe and politically stable country with a cosmopolitan culture and vibrant atmosphere that VIP assures you will think of as a dream vacation come true! For more information about how you can participate in the FAM Tour to The Seychelles Islands, please contact Venue International Professionals, Inc..
