Holbrook Travel, Gainesville, FL Videos

We have been helping travelers experience the captivating treasures of Tanzania for decades now, and we continue to be inspired by this stunning destination year after year. 🌅 From witnessing the annual Great Migration and observing majestic African Elephants simply go about their days, to taking a moment to breathe in and reflect on the humbling gifts nature affords us, Tanzania keeps giving us reasons to go back. Enjoy these videos captured by Pelin Karaca and Jill Hays of some of the transformative experiences they had in the crown jewel of East Africa. 🐘🦌🐒

Expert birder and naturalist guide Mario Córdoba has been leading Holbrook trips since 1996, and his most recent adventure in Costa Rica with our ambassador Debbie Jordan resulted in countless lucky bird sightings. 🐦‍⬛ Long-tailed Manakins are known for hanging out alone or in pairs in the fruiting trees and bushes of tropical forests in dry and humid lowlands and foothills along the Pacific coasts of parts of Central America. Females are identified by their green plumage, orange legs, and long tail, and males by their sky-blue back, which appears alongside their black plumage once they reach maturity. Mario got to capture the animated courtship displays of this species at Rincón de la Vieja National Park and shared this special moment with us! 📹 courtesy of Mario Córdoba
