When you travel on safari, your first experience would be noticing the tranquillity of nature's silence that sneaks into your heart. But at the same time, the sound of insects and wildlife excites your adventurous spirit, knowing there is still much that is untamed under the African sun.
At Excape Tours & Travel we offer you our service to arrange the perfect Safari Travel getaway plan to suit your every need. Since 1996 we plan tailor-made personalised Safari tours to South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Zambia and Mozambique. Whether you want a luxurious trip with the utmost of comfort and elegance, or you want to be one with nature and go camping, Excape can organise it. We can arrange everything from accommodation to tour guides, flights, car hire, train trips to extra curricular activities, such as wine tasting, fishing, hiking, hot air ballooning and even gourmet tours.
When you go on a Safari Travel you can expect to see much more than just the great Big 5 (Which is: elephants, lions, leopards, buffalos, and of course the rhino). The diversity of the landscape would proof to be a wonder of nature alone. And as you come up-close and personal with the wildlife of Africa, you would not only find yourself grateful for the armed and licensed "accredited" tour guide next to you, but would grow a new found appreciation for the beauty of Africa.
Some tips for when you do a Safari Travel tour:
(Also depending of course on what type of accommodation you choose)
First and foremost, check your flight's date, flight times and flight number at least 24 hours before departure.
When entering certain areas of Southern Africa it would be wise to get the proper vaccination for Malaria and Yellow fever. We would be able to advise you whether it would be necessary, as some countries would require a certificate before entering, and to ensure that you have a healthy, enjoyable trip.
Insect bite cream would also be wise (It is after all Africa), not only for health reasons, but also to avoid the annoyance factor of having to unnecessarily have itchy bites.
You might also find comfort in keeping up to date with local news, especially if you are travelling alone. And while travelling, the best way to gain knowledge and keeping up to date with activities would simply be by asking the locals.
Whilst you are travelling, we suggest to not carrying any valuables on you, but if or when you do, don't carry it openly. Investing in a travelling handbag would be a big asset to your trip.
Never leave your valuables unattended!
Prepare for the climate by packing the right clothing and accessories. Although Africa is hot, the nights can get very cold in winter, and therefore it would be wise to bring a warm jacket. Sunglasses, a hat and comfortable walking shoes would also be a must.
If you feel adventurous and opt to drive yourself, just a few things to remember: Stay alert, avoid travelling at night and wear your seatbelt at all time. In some of the countries, especially in the rural areas, the roads are often poorly maintained, and also keep an eye open for any large domestic animals such as cattle and sheep in these areas that might cross your path.
Tap water is generally fine to drink in a lot of areas, but if you prefer, bottled water is widely available.
And then lastly, remember your camera! You wouldn't want to miss capturing the beauty of Africa!
All things considered, once you've booked your Safari tour, kick back, put your feet up and get lost in the inspiration of your wildlife adventure that awaits you. For on your venture would you only really experience what it means to live in "African-time", that this truly means relaxation in its purest form.
