Africa is unlike any other place on earth; treat yourself to a holiday of a lifetime by embarking on African safaris.
Although African safaris are most popular for guiding tourists through Africa's beautiful bush and for observing the wild animals that are unique to the continent, there are many other reasons why African Safaris are so popular. Africa is an "out of this world" continent for many tourists who are visiting from the Northern Hemisphere. The scenery, animals, people, culture, and lifestyles are unlike any they've seen or experienced, and the tangible atmosphere of simplicity is both welcoming and comforting. Many visitors stay in luxurious accommodation when on holidays in Africa, making their African adventures all the more enjoyable.
Films such as Out of Africa and National Geographic documentaries have shown us the beauty of Africa; however nothing can quite prepare one for a personal encounter with this continent. The landscape is made up of greens, yellows, oranges and browns, and the soil is hard and baked by the sun. Depending on the time of year, rivers flow heavily and waterholes are alive with life. The mountains in Africa are majestic and the forests are truly awe-inspiring. And when thunder echoes over the plains and lighting lights up the skies, this continent becomes alive with mystery, tradition, and nature. African safaris allow guests to experience this incredible game of life for themselves, and are popular for the incredible beauty and experiences they have given so many.
Many people embark on African safaris to discover different cultures and people. Although Africa may be famous for shaky economies and political climates, the people are mostly friendly and welcoming to tourists. Many African countries understand the benefits of having a successful tourism industry, and are happy to showcase their communities and attractions to visiting foreigners.
The lifestyle in many African countries is slow and simple. Although this stereotype is proved to be untrue in many African cities and towns, visiting rural Africa will show you a simpler way of life that is ruled by the temperature of the sun, tradition, and necessities. African safaris offer their guests a taste of colonial Africa, allowing them to rest and relax during the hottest times of day and enjoy the wildlife, luxurious accommodation and excellent service of their lodgings. Morning and evening game safaris are embarked on by 4X4 or foot, and enchant guests with the wildlife and beautiful landscape which surrounds them. After game drives, guests are treated to brunch or dinner, entertainment, and further pampering. Relaxing by swimming pools, an afternoon nap, enjoying a spa treatment and listening to the sounds of nature are just further ways to pass the time.
African safaris are enjoyed by thousands of tourists every year, each one leaving with a sense of wonder at the African continent and treasuring every memory they can hold on to. The beautiful nature of the African continent, the interesting wildlife, the laidback lifestyle, the unique and interesting cultures, and luxury accommodation entices many guests from all over the world to see the continent for themselves; sendinh each of them home with an interesting story to tell and a newfound appreciation for African continent.
