AFRICA

Our MagicalAFRICA

Seven - Coloured Earths, Mauritius

The vibrant pink hue of Lac Rose and the phenomenal wonder that is Oguta Lake - both illustrate some of the wonders of the western region.

The southern region’s Kimberly Hole - the world’s biggest excavated hole, and the Okavango Delta speak volumes as confident examples of Africa’s grip on her environment.

Not forgetting the northern region which has for centuries been feeding the rest of the world with the Pyramids of Gaza – an attestation to the birth of ancient civilization and its origin in Africa.

The pristine wildernesses of the eastern regions boasts of lands full of mesmerising overcast skies and an underlay of magical dunes and landscapes.

This is the magic that is Africa.

Did you say Africa? Yesss! It’s all in Africa, Africa and Africa. Welcome to the continent of aquatic splendour – the preferred destination for tourists the world over. Over the years, Africa’s beaches, lakes, waterfalls and oceans have become second home to fun seekers, back packers

It’s a perfect getaway for anyone seeking to take a break from the fast paced urban life to rest, explore new things or even just to write a book.

Untouched & UNSPOILT

Lobamba, Swaziland

Untouched & UNSPOILT It’s no longer news that Africa is the cradle of civilization. Time and again, archaeological research and scientific studies have proven this and you have a great opportunity to experience the continent first-hand.

Come see the majestic Egyptian pyramids of Giza, the ancient libraries of Timbuktu and the Elmina castle of Ghana. Their awe-inspiring architecture as well as the thousands of preserved original manuscripts and artefacts will blow your mind.

What’s more, Africa parades a phenomenal range of museums and galleries which showcases stunning works of art and cultural artefacts dating back to many centuries. Guided tours can take you to African villages and communities whose culture and way of life have been preserved from time immemorial. You can’t go on this odyssey and remain the same. It’s indeed an eye opener that helps you appreciate the beauty in diversity and the beauty in variety – which is the spice of life.
