Guided and self guided tours spotting wildlife in Tanzania

Africa Tours

Booking one of these amazing Africa tours will open up an entirely new world full of adventure for you. In the desert regions, you can follow ancient trade routes through the Sahara on camels and explore the pyramids of Egypt or the Cradle of Humankind. Guides in the mountainous jungle regions of Africa will show you how to track the elusive mountain gorilla or take you on exhilarating rafting trips down raging rivers. One of the most memorable Africa tours is the safari, where guides will show you wildlife such as lions, elephants, and giraffes.

Tours of Africa

Tours of Africa have always been a popular adventure, and as the world continues to become smaller and more interconnected, it has really opened up the possibility of where you can visit. With so many amazing tours of Africa on offer, you can rest assured that there will always be the perfect adventure waiting around the corner!

From the sunny North African coast along the waters of the Mediterranean, to the winding banks of the Nile River, there are so many opportunities to explore the rich history and culture of Africa. Moving further south through the continent, the vast serengeti provides the perfect opportunity to view wildlife on a family-friendly safari, while the imposing peak of Mount Kilimanjaro begs to be climbed by those with an adventurous spirit.

Reaching Cape Town, travellers can explore the surrounding coastal landscape or take in the hot weather while laying on the beach and hitting some of the best surf destinations in the world. No matter what your interests might be, there are plenty of Africa tours that will showcase the vast wealth of adventure opportunities that Africa has to offer!

When is the Best Time to Experience Africa Tours?

Africa is a very large continent, which makes it difficult to pinpoint the best time to experience Africa tours. Those looking to take part in an exhilarating safari will want to do so during the dry season of June to October, whereas adventurers looking to explore the coast of North Africa in Morocco might want to plan for the spring or autumn seasons when it isn’t unbearably hot.

Conversely, heading to the bottom of the continent will see the seasons flip, making December-February the best time to experience Africa tours in countries like Lesotho or South Africa, particularly if you want to enjoy the hot summer weather.

No matter where in Africa you decide to visit, be sure to do your research to determine when exactly the best time is for your tour - the last thing you want is to get soaked with rain or be surrounded by swarms of tourists!
