What comes to mind when you picture Africa? We envision vast savannahs, thundering waterfalls, vibrant cities and abundant wildlife…it’s all magical. In order to focus on this magic, a tour will enhance your journey. The continent’s iconic places are spread across different regions and countries, so here’s why a tour makes travelling in Africa so easy.
Witness the power of Victoria Falls
Mosi-oa-Tunya is the local name for Victoria Falls, translating to ‘The Smoke That Thunders’. Witnessing the sheer scale of this thunder for the first time is an unforgettable experience. On a tour, your local guide will make sure you see Victoria Falls from the best vantage points, all while explaining its history and geology.
The magic of an African safari
The lure of an African safari is usually the key pull for travellers. And we don’t blame them! From lions resting beneath acacia trees to elephants moving through the bush, watching animals in their natural habitat is an unforgettable experience. On a tour, game drives are typically led by expert trackers and guides. Not only are they experts in reading the landscape, but they also have the animals’ best interests at heart.
Discover the energy of Cape Town
The wilderness isn’t the only highlight on a tour of Africa. Its cities are equally a highlight – just like Cape Town. Cape Town ticks all the boxes for travellers. It has incredible natural wonders (like Table Mountain), fascinating neighbourhoods, the spectacular Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, and a culinary and wine scene to boot. Trust us when we say that you need to include Cape Town on your tour of Africa!
Encounter wild landscapes
Africa is a huge continent. Travelling in a foreign place and across vast spaces can be overwhelming, especially crossing several borders and countries. A tour helps to navigate these remote type areas safely and comfortably with on-hand local expertise. With everything organised, all you need to do is soak it in.
Africa is a bucket list destination for good reason. Discover it on a Globus or Cosmos tour to elevate your experience.
