Africa - breathtaking scenery, unparalleled wildlife, and rich cultures

Like no other continent in the world, Africa travel offers breathtaking scenery, unparalleled wildlife, and rich cultures. For travellers with an adventurous spirit, an Africa tour is a shimmering, alluring gem. The sheer continental scale of the African landmass, relative to other landmasses on the planet, can in fact only really be appreciated by studying a Peters Projection map.

To witness an epic migration or to watch a leopard stalk its prey at dusk is to perceive something of the essence of the struggle for existence for animal and, in comparison, human life on earth – an experience that can only be seen in Africa.

Tours offering camping, walking, elephant back, self drive, light aircraft and safari are all available from subtropical Malawi, to hyper-arid Namibia, and the broad savannah tapestry of much of Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia. The enormous variety of South Africa as a destination, the area covering the southern third of the African continent, is also a hugely diverse and exciting Africa travel experience.

To the east of the continent are the dazzling Indian Ocean Islands: Mauritius, renowned for its beaches, sugar cane fields and potent rum, the Seychelles which cast an escapist spell over travellers Madagascar, the fourth biggest island in the world – green and luminous with sparkling beaches and turquoise sea and further east, the numerous Maldives Islands with their postcard perfect paradise allure. The Indian Ocean Islands offer holiday diversity from just lying on the beach enjoying the most luxurious resort to the more adventurous with plenty of scuba diving and water sports activities to be enjoyed. A destination too big to handle on just one trip!
