Unforgettable African Adventures and Holidays with Thorne Travel

Africa is a continent of endless contrast, colour, and culture. While many come for the world-famous safaris or to conquer the summit of Kilimanjaro, Africa offers so much more than just wildlife and adventure. From golden deserts and tropical coastlines to buzzing cities and sacred historical sites, this is a place where every destination tells a different story.

In Morocco, lose yourself in the maze-like medinas of Marrakech, ride camels across the dunes of the Sahara, and soak in the sights and scents of colourful souks. Over in Egypt, stand in awe of the Great Pyramids of Giza, cruise along the Nile, and explore ancient temples that date back thousands of years.

For something more relaxed, Cape Verde offers a laid-back blend of Portuguese and African culture, with volcanic islands, golden beaches, and year-round sunshine just a short flight from Europe. In Kenya, witness the drama of the Great Migration in the Maasai Mara, spot the Big Five on safari, or unwind along the Indian Ocean coast.

Further south, South Africa combines natural beauty and urban energy like nowhere else. Explore Cape Town’s iconic Table Mountain, taste your way through the Winelands, or spot penguins on a beach after a morning game drive in Kruger National Park.

Africa is the place to experience vast open spaces, starry skies, ancient cultures, world-class wildlife, and coastlines that stretch for miles. Whether you’re in search of adventure, history, relaxation or a bit of everything, the continent offers unforgettable holidays for every kind of traveller.
