Africa Adventure Tours, Travel & Holidays
Unequivocally the greatest place on earth to observe some of the planet’s most iconic wildlife in its mesmerising natural habitat. Much of the appeal in venturing into the African wilderness - whether it's by jeep, hot air balloon or on foot - comes from the quantity and diversity of those that roam its plains and stalk its jungles. From witnessing a pride of lions on the hunt in the plains of the Serengeti to coming within mere metres of some of our closest relatives in the form of Uganda’s mountain gorilla population, nothing matches the thrill of leaving your world behind and delving into our planet’s wildest habitats on an epic African adventure. Between its notoriously world class safari locations, this diverse continent is home to landscapes that are utterly breathtaking in their unique beauty, including the otherworldly visage of the Namib Desert, the powerful drumming of Victoria Falls and the idyllic pearl white island shores of Zanzibar.
Aside from the mind-blowing abundance of natural splendour boasted by Africa’s wilderness, the continent also plays host to some of the most intriguing cultures that exist on earth. Few places can honestly claim that the local cultures and traditions of their ancestors still survive through their contemporary civilisations quite to the vivid extent that they do in Africa. Visiting tribes - such as the famous Masai people of Kenya & Tanzania - not only opens your eyes to an utterly different culture but also provides an accurate insight into the foundational history on which each nation’s modern customs were built. African cities, like the coastal gem of Cape Town and the historic Germanic metropolis of Windhoek, are also fast becoming focal points of any adventure to this vast continent. It is a place of limitless wonder and adventure that has retained a level of tradition and authenticity like nowhere else on earth.
