Magical Gay Safari Experience

April 3, 2022 by Philip Sheldon

There’s something magical and mystical about a gay safari in Southern Africa. It offers one of those rare experiences where we humans are guests of nature, on their scale. The animals run free, following instincts honed by their species over the millennia. We humble visitors are dwarfed by the grandeur of the surroundings while in our protective vehicle or safari lodge. We can learn a lot about living in harmony with nature by observing the people whose ancestors have long co-existed with the animals.

The Dreaded Packing List – Grand Canyon Splash

August 8, 2021 by Trisha Moses

Grand Canyon Splash Rafting Trip

Packing lists can be a bit overwhelming even though they are there to prepare you. I just returned from the Grand Canyon and I am happy to point out some important items and their greatness while in the canyon.

Tokyo Olympics’ LGBT Athletes

August 8, 2021 by Philip Sheldon

olympic blog by Phil

Watching the Tokyo Olympics brings a range of emotions. First, there is the fascination of watching the world’s best athletes. (I especially enjoy gymnastics, diving, and cycling.)

The more complex emotion is who to cheer for. As an American, I identify with the success of my fellow Americans. But I have lived in and led many tours to Japan and China. Over 100 other countries have warmly welcomed me and our travelers, so I have so many athletes to cheer on!

Phil’s Notes – July 2021 – Resilience!

July 11, 2021 by Philip Sheldon

A group of travelers sits in chairs relaxing with the grand canyon in the background on HE Travel's Splash Grand Canyon Rafting Tour.

After operating a handful of tours over the past 18 months, we’re excited to finally be sending our travelers out to see more of our amazing destinations around the world!
We recently completed successful tours to the Galapagos and Peru. With our amazing local partners, we adapted to the frequently changing requirements of travel, such as scheduling rapid-result tests as needed.
