Awesome Wildlife
Giraffes, the African elephant, the African wild dog, the African civet, and the Galago monkeys are just a few of the animals found in Africa and nowhere else. Of course, wolves, lions, and hyenas are common here too.?
With fantastic opportunities throughout the continent to see wildlife in their natural habitat, an African safari is a highlight of any trip to this continent.
Exotic Cuisines
Africa is a feast for the senses. The smells, sights, and sounds of nature are rivaled only by the tastes of traditional cuisines. Exotic herbs and spices lend a colorful twist to the native dish of every region. Feel free to indulge, without fear of picking up the pounds.
Traditional African meals are generally organic and therefore quite healthy too, devoid of the additives and refined sugars so prevalent in the West. We also found that meat with vegetables, aromatic spices, and couscous features prominently.?
Iconic Landmarks
Every continent has its special landmarks, but here in the birthplace of mankind, you¡¯ll find the most iconic of them all.?
The magnificent pyramids, the vast and imposing statue known as The Great Sphinx of Giza, and even ancient Roman ruins call Africa their home. These sands feature historical landmarks of many great civilizations.
