In Loving Memory of Sharon Blodgett

It is with much sorrow that we tell you of the loss of our longtime friend and colleague, Sharon Blodgett. Sharon died tragically in an automobile accident earlier this month near her home in California and it has been a great shock to all of us here at Esplanade.

Sharon’s love for Africa was contagious and over the years she has introduced many to the absolute beauty of this wonderful land. Travel was a big part of Sharon’s life and Greece held a special place in her heart but, in most recent years, it was Africa that she would return to year after year.

Sharon will be missed by many , but especially those of us who had the pleasure of working with her for so many years.

Get in Touch

Esplanade arranged a wonderful New Zealand adventure for my wife and myself in 2020…just a couple of months prior to Covid shutting down the world! During this difficult time for the planet, the staff from Esplanade continued to reach out to us on how they recommended we deal with our travel plans and the expenditures we had previously committed to. They continuously updated our travel plans and made all the necessary adjustments to our itineraries. Almost three years to the day later, we were able to enjoy our New Zealand trip. The reservations, excursions, and overall recommendations made by Esplanade were fantastic! We commented several times that their commitment to the smallest of details was very apparent. Our flights were perfectly spaced, our drivers all showed up on time, and our accommodations and excursions were beyond expectations. We now plan on trusting Esplanade for our future travels to Africa and Europe. We cannot recommend them more.
