Africa

As a continent Africa is complex with diverse culture and boasting of breathtaking scenery. Northern Africa encompasses many countries that are rich in history. The beautiful beaches of Morocco provide an exotic aura of romance and allure. The history rich Egypt along the Red Sea teems with culture and majestic pyramids. The southern regions of Tanzania and South Africa are filled with much culture and scenic beauty that one will stand in awe. The landscapes of Africa are nothing short of mesmerizing. Both wildly adventurous and lazily indulgent, a trip to Africa can meet the desires of all types of travelers. Family friendly safaris, romantic weekends or tours of historic Egypt are all options when making plans to visit Africa.

For families traveling to Africa there are many adventures to choose from. Visit Kenya and stay in a safari lodge and allow the children to go to "bush school" with a trained Massai guide. They will learn more in thirty minutes with their Massai guide then even they could imagine. Tour the Samburu National Reserve or the Sibiloi National Park and be apart of exciting game drives. Families may also enjoy an adventure trip to Tanzania and experience first hand the annual wildebeest migration or go trekking in search of chimpanzees. Tanzania is also home to Mt. Kilimijara, the highest mountain in Africa, as well as Lake Victoria and Lake Tanganyika. There are many resort lodges in this part of Africa that provide modern amenities for guests to enjoy while on their African safari.

Africa also has many places for romantic getaways including remote islands and resort lodges located deep in the wilderness. The private island of Medjumbe in the Quirimbas Archipelago in Mozambique is secluded enough that guests will feel like it belongs to them. Nambia is also a place with noble forests and teeming grasslands that provide quiet places for romantic nights.

As you look at a map of Africa it is obvious that there are many different landscapes within the continent. Gorgeous coastlines, desert plains, tall grass lands and mountains can all be toured and explored by curious visitors. With scenery only nature could create, guests will love the panoramic views that surround the hotels and resorts throughout the continent. Africa is one of the most beautiful places in the world. Victoria Falls, Mt Kilimanjara, the Red Sea, the Ivory Coast, and the incredible pyramids of Egypt are just a few of the sites to behold when visiting Africa. Each country boasts of its own national pride and welcomes visitors in their unique way. Visitors to Africa will certainly want to enlist the help of a travel guide so they don't miss out on the history of each country and the opportunities to see the hidden treasures through out Africa. The complex diversity of the continent of Africa is most certainly part of its mystery and charm.
