Rwanda.  The very name evokes contrasting images of senseless slaughter and tranquil gorillas in the mist.  Perhaps the whispers of the 1.1 million who lost their lives in 100 days of brutal tribal violence in 1994 has kept Rwanda from your bucket list, but we're here to tell you that those voices are calling to the world to show that beyond the dark veil of genocide, there is light and healing, beauty and wonder.  This is a must-see destination!

In this episode, we sit down with our partners Yolanda Woeke & Mike Waller with Dragonfly Africa, Southern & East Africa's Leading Travel Company, to discuss our recent adventure together in Rwanda.  Even in the midst of the global pandemic, these intrepid souls are still leading groups on adventures in Africa for incentive travel events large and small.

Kip Lambert sits down with travel industry legend and pro, Michael Dominguez, the President & CEO of Associated Luxury Hotels International. 

Though we’ve been through a lot in the travel industry in the past weeks, and it’s been hard… Michael comes with a ton of spunk, passion, and optimism. If you’re ready to hear and feel some great vibes, you’re gonna love his realism & positivity.

The typical Alaskan fishing lodge script: A bit of Deadliest Catch meets roughing it man-camp.  But Pybus Point Lodge is anything but typical.  Listen as Darryl Bosshardt, Corporate Travel and Group Sales at Pybus Point Lodge, discusses with Destinations Brand Ambassador Kip Lambert how the motto of Elevating the Human Experience has transformed this destination into a premier, all-inclusive Alaskan fishing resort welcoming to couples, families, and corporate groups.  Find out how Pybus Point breaks the script with everything from the strong and beautiful Captain Jenny to five-star chefs in the kitchen.  And biggest script break of all, how a company who creates everything from road salt to vinyl fences embraced this motto and purchased Pybus Point in the first place.
