Natural Wonders of Africa
From Cape Town to Nairobi, this affordable nature tour of Africa puts on full display the amazing wildlife, landscapes, and culture. A safari in the Serengeti, adventures at Victoria Falls, even a guided mountain gorilla trek in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. 55 days may sound like a lot of time, but once you reach south and east Africa, you’ll see there’s a lifetime of epic landscapes, rare wildlife, and unique people to meet and discover. Track the “big five” across open savannah, explore the Okavango Delta in a traditional mokoro canoe, and hop on a ferry to the picturesque island beaches of Zanzibar to get a real feel for how large Africa truly is. Travel comfortably aboard our overland adventure vehicle, the Lando, and enjoy wilderness camping that will bring you closer to the region’s wildlife. Try not to blink, the time will fly by.
