South Africa  
   

South Africa is a young nation, transformed from a country of racial segregation to a diverse nation of unity and hope, boasting many traditions and rich cultures, joined together to become a “rainbow nation”. There is something for everyone, from luxurious, modern clubs and casinos in big cities with large active hotels, to the more historical, scenic towns and villages with amazing cultural museums and monuments with quaint little lodges in their setting. It is home of “Big Five”, elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo and rhino, as well as a vast array of other fascinating animals and birds. South Africa is truly a magical destination.

Botswana  
   

Botswana is a landlocked country, the size of Texas, situated in the center of Southern Africa.  It is a peaceful country known for diamonds and of course the splendid Okavango Delta, a remarkable wetland paradise located within the arid Kalahari Desert. Knowing that three quarters of Botswana is a desert makes the Delta even more spectacular, as it lies between shallow fault lines at the end of the Great African Rift Valley. Botswana is a place where one beckons for time to stand still long enough to be able to encounter its endless horizons. The unforgettable wilderness and the abundance of wildlife are just a few features that make Botswana a must-see destination.

Namibia  
   

Namibia never fails to enchant with the grandeur and harsh splendor of its desert surrounds. Known for its contrasting landscapes the desolate Namib Desert is said to be the oldest in the world, with its high dunes and awe-inspiring sense of space. In the north, landscapes range from dense bush and open plains in the great Etosha Pan, to woodland savanna and lush vegetation.  Dinosaur footprints preserved in sandstone and prehistoric rock art all bare witness to the timelessness of this country.

Egypt  
   

Most people who think of Egypt think of antiquities, but Egypt offers much more. Certainly it is a prime location to see the great heritage from the ancient world, including Pyramids and wonderful temples, but it is also part of the Holy Land, and tours to Christian and other religious monuments are popular. Yet Egypt also offers nature and desert treks, great scuba diving and even golf, fishing and birding expeditions. Relax on the beaches of the wondrous Red Sea or Sinai coasts, take in the high culture of Cairo, or even leisurely float down the Egyptian Nile on a luxurious river boat.
