Join us on a holiday to Africa

Join one of our tours of Africa and experience the very best of this vast, mesmerising continent.

Catch your breath as you gaze at Egypt's wondrous Pyramids, and feel the goosebumps rise as you stand before the enigmatic Valley of the Kings. Connect with nature like never before as you glimpse the 'big five' in their natural habitat on a safari across the grassy savannas of Kenya and South Africa

Take in the sights and sounds of the thundering Victoria Falls, and admire the rainbow above the rushing waters. Bathe in tropical waters and enjoy the laid-back atmosphere, blue skies and white-sand beaches of Mombasa or sip on crisp wines in the Cape Winelands after seeing the sights of beautiful Cape Town. Visit local tribes and gain a fascinating glimpse into their traditions and way of life, or spot weird and wonderful wildlife in Madagascar's national parks. 

See the world-famous landmarks and hidden gems that make this continent so extraordinary on one of our expertly tailored escorted holidays to Africa.
