    Why We Chose Uganda for Our African Safari - Part 1

    Why We Chose Uganda for Our African Safari - Part 1

    An African safari is a bucket list destination for many people and we could talk for hours, days, maybe even weeks about our trip to Uganda. Today we're just sticking to how we picked the country, what we experienced while we were there and what we would do differently. We're going to leave a future episode to discuss what to expect on African safaris in general. 

    What we cover in today's podcast: 
    Why Uganda- what led us to choosing this rather unconventional country for our first trip to AfricaSome of our crazy experiences like white river rafting on the Nile River, Roasting coffee beans and making matoke with a local and, of course, Gorilla TrekkingWhy a tour company can really make or break your African safari experienceSupport the showJoin our Travel Community on Facebook to connect with other like minded travelers, share stories, tips, tricks and travel hack wins- Travel More Insiders

    Perfect Weekend Getaway Destinations: Las Vegas

    Perfect Weekend Getaway Destinations: Las Vegas

    This is part of our new series where we highlight “easy” weekend trips.  We’re part of the 9-5ers that are just looking to use our PTO in the best way possible. Weekend trips are a great way to start to get out there with minimal planning (because it's just a short trip). It's a great way to “get your feet wet” so to speak and work your way up to those bucket list getaways. Weekend getaways obviously vary on how easy or realistic they are based on where you’re based but generally, this is why we say that a trip to Vegas is a great long weekend trip: 
    Many flights in and out- a good chance of finding a decently priced flightMany hotels including ones that can be used with major credit card point carriers It's a place you typically want a taste of, not necessarily a place where you need to spend a week to 10 days to experience the soul of the place. In today's episode we talk about: 
    Best things to do in Las VegasThe mistakes we made on our trip to VegasWhat we would focus on for our next trip! Would you go to Vegas for the weekend?

Love it

So many great tips! Love the conversational vibe.

Love the content

I love the content! However, the narrators talk over each other and interrupt each other frequently during the conversation. Not a huge deal but would be a better podcast if fixed.
