With the route along the West Coast of Africa becoming more popular with serious adventure cruisers, I sensed a rare story opportunity.
I outlined a media plan to Silversea, Lindblad and G Adventures who were then promoting the itinerary between Cape Town and West Africa.
G Adventures international PR agency, Mulberry Marketing Communications, responded in March 2012 and offered me a confirmed spot on the March 2013 departure based solely on my publication history.
The following publication results have been achieved so far:
