Getting up close and personal with Africa, though is a unique experience. The sights, sounds and smell of classic Africa safaris are an experience of a lifetime. You will be overwhelmed with the sheer number and variety of wildlife that you'll be able to appreciate, plus Africa's wild terrain and its people. If you are into Africa safaris and are contemplating on making your dream safari come true, there are a few things you should take into consideration. Countries To Visit For A Safari Adventure Africa consists of fifty four countries. It is the second largest continent only next to Asia. We associate Africa with safaris but not all the countries of Africa can offer one. Though among the fifty four there is quite a number that offer safari tours, not all can quite fill up your expectations. Tanzania, the country made up of Tanganyika and Zanzibar, is home to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Mt. Kilimanjaro. Kenya, on the same stretch as the Serengeti though on the Kenyan side of the border, has Maasai Mara. Both Tanzania and Kenya are considered options when we think about safaris. South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Uganda and Zimbabwe are also to be considered. South Africa may be Africa's best kept secret. Traditional African Safaris An African safari is often imagined to be roughing it out in the bush. Today though, traditional African safaris can be convenient and comfortable. Successful safaris often combine the luxury of a lodge with rustic, semi permanent camps. Lodges usually have the convenience of modern appliances and electricity. In the camps, you'll have to put up with a few inconveniences which are essential to gain a genuine "living in the bush experience". This Africa travel experience takes preparation. Family Safaris A custom safari can be an excellent way to bond with your family. There is such tenderness in the way an elephant cares for its young or a lion defends its cubs that will remind you of the closeness of a human family. Also, the new things you see, taste, smell, hear and feel makes for memorable family moments. The key in having a great family safari is in the selection of the best camps, guides and activities. The Africans are known for their love of children and the guides are no exception. They'd love nothing better than introducing your kids to the wonder of African wildlife and culture. By designing a custom safari you can target family activities that will still be reasonably priced but also meet your needs. Safaris Of Special Interest Sometimes, people go on safaris for a specific purpose. One of these reasons is photography. Many people have a fascination for taking pictures of rare and exotic animals. Special places and uncommon flora are also some subjects we'd like to capture on film. Special interest Safaris can target such topics as birds, beaches or adventure. One safari in South Africa even offers an opportunity to participate in wildlife capture, like Wild Kingdom or the Crock Hunter did on his TV show. |
