Southern Africa

The Zambezi and Luangwa rivers of Southern Africa contribute spectacular geographical landmarks to the region, as they etch great valleys through this part of the continent. The legendary Victoria Falls are absolutely jaw-dropping in size, whilst the Cape boasts wonderful wine and food, varied landscapes and cosmopolitan cities. Meanwhile the inland Okavango Delta defies nature and provides marsh to support fantastic bird and wildlife, and the Kalahari Desert is comprised of stunning wide-open spaces.

Botswana in southern Africa has some of the best wildlife, where the inland Okavango Delta supports a huge diversity of game. In contrast to this lush habitat is the Kalahari Desert in central Botswana, a stunning, semi-arid landscape. The beautiful scenery of Botswana also includes the Makgadikgadi salt pans which team with birds when waterlogged.

Zambia, located in Southern Africa contains vast and unspoilt land. Here the Great Rift Valley and Zambezi Valley offer some of Africas most diverse wildlife. A great place for safari, Zambia gives the oppertunity to see the "big five", and is also home to the awe-inspiring Vicotria Falls at the end of the great Zambezi River.

South Africa, at the southernmost tip of Africa is home to mountains, desert landscapes, winelands, cities, and great beaches. However it is South Africa's superb game-viewing in the Kruger National Park that gives oppertunities to view the "big five", in which it is possible to stay in luxury safari lodges.

Namibia is located on the western coastline in southern africa. Namibia is very diverse, in which the area of Damaraland is home to endangered rhinos and the Skeleton Coast has mountain ranges, whereas the red sand dunes of Sossusvlei and vegetation of the Kunene River offer something completely different. In Nambibia it is possible to encounter black rhino, desert elephant, seals and seabirds.

Mozambique is located on the east coast of Africa. With a vast stretch of Indian Ocean coastline, Mozambique has become a sought-after destination. Here the tropical islands of the southern Barazaruto Archipelago and the coral islands of the northern Quirimbas Archipelago offer white beaches and fabulous diving oppertunities.

Malawi in southern Africa, although a landlocked county, has beaches, unspoilt islands, and freshwater fish, due to Lake Malawi on its eastern boarder. With high plateaus and gently rolling Shire Highlands too, Malawi is a country that’s both beautiful and diverse. The Lake Malawi National Park holds a large amount of varied flora and fauna.
