Africa

Africa has been beguiling and enchanting travellers for centuries and today continues to be the ultimate destination for many adventure travellers. Africa is home to the best wildlife experiences on earth and some of the world's most beautiful natural landscapes and vibrant cultures. While some regions in East and Southern Africa have been well developed for safari tourism, much of the continent remains well off the beaten track where true adventures abound. See the mountain gorillas on the rainforest volcano slopes of the Great Lakes region, explore Ethiopia's astonishing historical wonders, overland through the rarely visited countries of West Africa, and much more.
