Usually, the number one reason for travellers to visit Africa is to embark on a safari or to climb Kilimanjaro, and while Africa certainly does have some of the most prolific wildlife viewing opportunities and one of the seven summits, there are so many more reasons to visit Africa. The continent teems with unique landscapes, ancient history, geographical wonders and active adventures to boot.
Wildlife is at the heart of every South African journey. Visitors flock to safaris to see the iconic ‘Big Five’—lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and buffalo. But the country’s waters are just as remarkable, teeming with colourful marine life, playful dolphins, majestic whales, and the famous African penguin. For the truly adventurous, cage diving with great white sharks offers an exhilarating experience like no other.
But it’s not just the wildlife that makes South Africa special—its cities are just as exciting. In Cape Town, take a cable car to the top of Table Mountain, hike up Lion’s Head for sweeping views, or visit Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was once imprisoned. Johannesburg, meanwhile, is a buzzing metropolis full of trendy bars, world-class shopping, and cutting-edge art galleries.
Since the late 1990s, Morocco has provided a refreshing alternative to traditional holidays. Our tours take you from the Atlantic coast to vibrant Marrakech and the breathtaking Atlas Mountains. While July and August are peak travel months, there’s always space to explore and unwind.
Agadir, with its six miles of coastline and 300 days of sunshine, attracts millions annually. For a quieter experience, head to Taghazout, a charming surf village offering an authentic taste of Moroccan coastal life.
