Africa

Africa is a massive continent of contrasts, from the big five game resorts and sweeping landscapes found in cruises to South Africa, Namibia and Madagascar to the souks of Morocco and the colossal history of Egypt.

Africa is a massive continent of contrasts, from the big five game resorts and sweeping landscapes found in cruises to South Africa, Namibia and Madagascar to the souks of Morocco and the colossal history of Egypt. The options for cruises visiting Africa are varied, you can choose to embark on a river cruise down the Nile or Zambezi, or perhaps explore the ports along the coast either as part of a longer Worldwide or Mediterranean voyage, or as a dedicated intensive itinerary

When to visit?
Most cruises to Africa call between January and April but river cruises will run throughout the year. You will find most places in Africa are hot and humid, though South Africa has a more temperate climate.

An African voyage is synonymous with the extraordinarily diverse wildlife native to this unique continent. A cruise to South Africa or Walvis Bay in Namibia may offer you the opportunity to go on Safari to see the Big Five African game; lions, leopards, rhinoceros, elephants and Cape buffalo - but there is such variety of animals to see here, it is a nature-lovers delight

Cruises to Africa cannot avoid the weight of history, stretching back to the start of recorded history and of human civilisation itself. Egypt is the most prominent, with the tombs of the Pharaohs, pyramids and monuments to dynasties which ruled over 3,000 years before the birth of Christ. In South Africa, more recent history makes itself felt where you can visit Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned; in other parts of Africa visitors can see everlasting remnants of the evils of the slave trade.

On the east coast where the waters of the Indian Ocean are warmer, there are some out and return cruises from ports like Mombasa and Cape Town visiting the islands of the Indian Ocean. Madagascar offers wonderful wildlife while islands like Mauritius and French Reunion provide beautiful beaches, mountainous scenery and great snorkelling.
