Why travel to Africa?

In South Africa, start by abseiling down Table Mountain, swim with seals and go on an open-air game drive in the Eastern Cape. In Tanzania, experience a walking safari through the Serengeti National Park and marvel at the Big 5 in the Ngorongoro Crater, while still having enough time to sunbathe on the pristine beaches of Zanzibar. Head north on this vast continent to reach Egypt, with its ancient pyramids and sunset on the Nile. Meet snake charmers and storytellers in Morocco, a land of spicy souks and authentic Berber guesthouses in the hazy foothills of the Atlas Mountains. Climb to the top of Mount Toubkal - North Africa's highest mountain - or learn to surf on Taghazout's Atlantic coast. Whether you're looking for sunset camel rides in the Sahara Desert or safari sunsets, Africa is made for the best adventures.

Food

Rice, meat and regional produce are common across the continent, but there are also many traditional dishes you must try: piri-piri chicken in Mozambique; a bubbly potjie (meat stew) in Botswana and South Africa; a Moroccan bastille sprinkled with almonds.

Culture

From Giza to Luxor, Egypt claims an ancient heritage like nowhere else on the continent. In Mali and Senegal you'll find a diverse musical culture with international appeal, and Zanzibar offers a unique atmosphere with its blend of Arab and Indian influences.

People

The population of Africa is currently about 1.3 billion people, from Morocco and Egypt in the north to Zimbabwe, Botswana and South Africa in the south. The most populous country is Nigeria, the least populated is the Seychelles.

Nature

From the hot sands of the Sahara to the lush tropical coastline, Africa's landscapes are as vast as they are diverse. From the plains of the Serengeti, you can see the almighty Kilimanjaro surrounded by a rich variety of wildlife.
