1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Eastern and Southern Africa spans a vast and dramatically varied stretch of the continent, taking in the sweeping savannahs of Kenya and Tanzania, the thundering waters of Victoria Falls on the Zambia–Zimbabwe border, the vast salt pans of Botswana's Makgadikgadi, the red dunes of the Namib Desert, and the diverse landscapes of South Africa from the Drakensberg to the Cape Winelands. The region is world-renowned for wildlife safaris, home to the Big Five and iconic spectacles such as the Great Migration in the Serengeti and Masai Mara. Beyond wildlife, travellers come for hiking on Kilimanjaro and Mount Kenya, water sports and kayaking on Lake Malawi, cultural encounters with Maasai, Zulu, and San communities, and vibrant city life in Cape Town and Nairobi. It's a favourite destination for overlanders, backpackers, and adventure travellers crossing borders on long-form journeys through some of the world's most awe-inspiring wilderness.
