If you are looking for an African adventure, Whole Travel would like to suggest the Saadani Safari Lodge.  The Saadani Safari Lodge is located in the Saadani National Park.  The Saadani National Park is an extraordinary mix of ecosystems that combines beach, bush, and river.

Saadani Safari Lodge is small and intimate, with just nine individual tented cottages set along the beach, cooled by soft ocean breezes and shaded by casherina trees.  Come to Saadani Safari Lodge for a chance to see elephants, hippos, or just to get away from it all.

Aloha Green Hawaii

October 22, 2008

While Hawaii is better known for its sprawling beaches and live volcanoes than its eco-friendly habits, authors Gary and Peggy Diedrichs have trekked all over the great islands to put together a comprehensive guidebook to everything sustainable and green in Hawaii. Called The Green Traveler Guides Hawaii and recently reviewed by  SF Gate, it suggests sustainable alternatives to everything from organic eateries to eco-friendly surfboard wax.
