OUTDOOR ESCAPES TO AFRICA

Africa is one of those places you think you understand from documentaries — until you’re actually there. Nothing quite compares to seeing a lion up close from the back of a safari vehicle, or watching a herd of elephants cross a river like they own the land. Stand near Victoria Falls and you don’t just see it — you feel the ground vibrate as the water crashes into the gorge. Africa has a way of surprising you every single day, and the feeling follows you home long after the trip is over.

If that already sparks something in you, speak to our Africa team.

Game drives in places such as South Africa, Botswana, Kenya and Tanzania make you feel like you’ve stepped into a nature film — except it’s real. And when you venture beyond the big-name reserves, the variety continues: trek to see gorillas in Rwanda’s forests, or head to the coastline where nearly 19,000 miles of shorelines host everything from coral reefs and whale migrations to shark cage diving in South Africa’s colder waters.

But Africa isn’t only wildlife. The continent delivers scenery on a different scale. Hike around legendary ranges, or take on Kilimanjaro — a lifetime goal for many travellers. Slow down in South Africa’s Winelands and taste vintages surrounded by vineyard valleys. Further north, the landscape shifts again — towering dunes in the Sahara, ancient temples on the banks of Lake Nasser, and sites like Abu Simbel that look impossible until you stand in front of them.

It isn’t difficult to understand why Africa leaves such an impression. Tell us what you imagine — our specialists can build a personal journey that hits everything on your list and still leaves room for surprises you didn’t know you wanted.
