An African wildlife safari – a dream destination, allowing you to experience wildlife up close and in their natural element. Be awed to see just how many different varieties of wildlife there are. Tectonic activity has cleaved Africa into rift valleys and volcanic peaks. Chains of mineral-rich lakes are pink with flamingo’s. Lush rainforests hide populations of mountain gorillas. The vast yellow plains of the Serengeti are home to the greatest concentrations of large animals anywhere on the planet. For those who want to enjoy the coastline, you can suntan on beaches, play a round of golf on one of Africa`s fabulous courses or sip a cocktail while watching the red African sun set over a waterhole as the elephants come down to drink. And then there are all those familiar African tourist attractions from Egypt`s Pyramids in the North to Cape Town`s Table Mountain in the South, from the mysterious markets of Timbuktu and Marrakesh in the West to the coral reefs of Zanzibar and Nosey Be in the East. Majestic deserts to the north and south, wonderful beaches in the east and west, tropical rainforests in the middle, and unique nature and game reserves in the east and south. South of the Sahara, travelers may discover both strikingly unscathed natural sites and peoples who have clung on to many of their age-old cultural traditions. The north of the continent, for its part, from Marrakech in Morocco to Luxor in Egypt by way of Carthage (Tunisia) and Leptis Magna (Libya) offers some of the world`s most stunningly beautiful monumental sites. Africa is where life begun with Black Eve, Africa is where civilization first developed on the Banks of the river Nile. From the old Arab cities of North Africa, through the enormous desert of the Sahara, from the thick of the jungle to the great Game Parks. Africa offers a huge diversity of sights to the traveller. But above all, getting in contact with the native inhabitants makes it an unforgettable visit.
