Vast and undiscovered, the African continent has long been the inspiration of explorers and travellers, a world of dramatic contrasts. This wonderful continent is simply unforgettable, offering breathtaking scenery, exciting wildlife, different contrasting cultures and people. This land is synonymous with “Safari”, the simple Swahili word meaning “journey” which conjures up fantastic images of adventure and expeditions. There is something so compelling about venturing out to look for wildlife in a reserve that it borders on being addictive. You never know what you’ll see around the next corner, this is life unscripted and unplugged. No other holiday provides the thrill of seeing the animals in their own natural environment, roaming freely through some of the most spectacular scenery that you will find anywhere in the world. The excitement as you search for the ‘Big Five’ (buffalo, elephant, leopard, lion, rhino) and many other species of flora and fauna, and capture them on film, is truly unforgettable.
