Africa’s multitude of national parks, reserves and conservation areas are some of the most beautiful places on the planet, and home to a bewildering variety of wild animals – watch lions stalk their prey, see wildebeest and zebras migrating, or track gorillas through rain forest. Wherever you go, a wildlife safari (from the Swahili meaning ‘long journey’) will undoubtedly be a major highlight of your trip. Vast distances (some parks are bigger than small nations) and the unpredictable nature of large animals usually mean you need a vehicle to visit the national parks, often a 4WD, plus a knowledgeable guide. Going solo is possible but expensive so many visitors opt to join an organized safari. There are itineraries to suit all budgets, starting from around US$100 per day for a basic all-inclusive experience.
