Kerry De Bruyn – Swala – Sanctuary Retreats

Back to Africa on a dream

The wonderful old flying machine – a 1929-model Gypsy Moth – spent around 50 hours soaring over the quintessential East African bushveld during the filming of ‘Out of Africa’ – a Kenyan tale of romance between Danish Baroness Karen Blixen and big-game hunter Denys Finch Hatton.

“Africa changes you forever, like nowhere on earth. Once you have been there, you will never be the same. But how do you begin to describe its magic to someone who has never felt it? How can you explain the fascination of this vast, dusty continent, whose oldest roads are elephant paths? Could it be because Africa is the place of all our beginnings, the cradle of mankind, where our species first stood upright on the savannahs of long ago?”

Brian Jackman

“Safari: A world without boundaries. A world of romance and elegance. A personal adventure and way of life.”
