A Uganda Gorilla Safari
situated in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest allows you, in small groups of up to six people, to get really close to these extraordinary primates and spend up to an hour with them! This is one of those ‘must do in a lifetime’ experiences and we recommend doing at least two treks in a visit to Bwindi – simply because once is simply not enough!

The difference is that Africa does most things in a smaller way than the Caribbean, for example – so forget large resorts with glitz and glamour – but rather go for somewhere tasteful, either simply by yourselves or where there are just a handful of other like minded guests. Somewhere you know you will have the beaches pretty much to yourself, with exquisite food and attentive, smiling staff who are tending to your every need. Then, depending upon your criteria, if you are a family, there are a handful of places which offer more activities than you possibly know what to do with!

Either way – we have the finest selection – from Madagascar to Mauritius, from the Seychelles to Mozambique – from Kenya to Zanzibar – if something different and stylish is what you want, then beach holidays Africa is the place to start!

Luxury Safaris in Kenya with AfricanExplorations.com

Kenya is simply magical – and having spent many a weekend going out on safari whilst living there with my family, I consider myself to be privileged. It is a heady mixture of eclectic cultures and extraordinary wildlife – culminating in the wildebeest migration which occurs for three months of each year – where two million animals can be seen crossing the Mara River.

Zambian Safari with AfricanExplorations.com

Firstly, there are still huge tracts of Zambia that one can explore without seeing other tourists. There are not many places in Africa left that one can say this! In kafue and the Busanga Plains in particular – one can often spend time in this unique region amongst supreme wildlife. There is a fantastic array of camps to choose from too.

Then north Luangwa is another favourite of ours, especially for those who are interested in walking safaris. Which brings me to my next point – Zambia is really home to the walking safari. Nobody does it as well as they do – walking from one area to another, arriving at a camp already set up, complete with cold drinks! These are not route marches, rather an informative and wonderful way to get closer to the earth, learn about the trees and plants, ecology as a whole, as well as both seeing and learning about wildlife around you. This can be combined with game drives if you wish at the end of your safari and we would also highly recommend the lower Zambezi, which is a fitting end to a perfect safari. These areas also provide huge contrast – and the quality of guiding in Zambia is superb, too!
