“Three years ago we decided to try a trip with UoT Alumni Travel.

In 2008, we travelled to Antarctica. In our bright red parkas we ventured ashore in

zodiacs to get “up close and personal” with a variety o penguins. We saw whales, seals,and spectacular scenery. We even swam in the Antarctic Ocean in a thermally heated

narrow band close to shore. In 2009, we journeyed to Egypt, a long awaited trip which

did not disappoint – the history, pyramids, temples, the Nile, a elucca sail, camel

ride. This year it was Arica – Tanzania & Zanzibar! Our saari experiences have let us

with many special memories – the hippo pool, a wildebeeste giving birth, elephants,

lions, cheetah, leopards, etc. These were our frst experiences with group travel and

we never elt too structured. We avoided the usual stressul situations such as making

reservations, fnding accommodation and guides. On each o our trips we met wonderul

people – our superb guides, the tour directors, and our ellow travellers.”
