Africa is the second largest continent - 11.6 million square miles and an estimated population in excess of 740 million - possesses the longest human history of any continent and was the last frontier of colonization and industrialization. As a result, Africa is a vast expanse with a diversity of peoples and wild adventure selections.
In the north lies the cultural hub of Africa - Egypt - where a journey down the Nile will deliver you to the Great Pyramids and the archaeological treasures of the Valley of the Kings. Venturing to the northwest will offer the unique desert environments found in countries like Morocco and Mali.
The East African nations of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda have long courted adventurers seeking big game safaris. Tanzania offers the added feature of Mount Kilimanjaro, the tallest peak on the African continent.
To the southeast, just off the coast, lie the Seychelles, Mauritius, and Madagascar; island destinations providing excellent sailing and scuba diving.
In the south, toward the countries of Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and South Africa, the big game animals are wild and within close reach via the plentiful safari opportunities.
