When And Where To Go?

Choosing the right safari destination starts with understanding what excites you most — wildlife encounters, breathtaking landscapes, or cultural experiences.

Each African country offers its own rhythm and wonders, from the Great Migration in Kenya to Botswana’s serene waterways.
Consider when to travel, how you like to explore, and which setting best matches your sense of adventure.

Kenya

Kenya is the birthplace of safari — where endless savannahs meet snow-capped peaks and wildlife roams freely beneath vast skies. From the Maasai Mara’s Great Migration to the pink flamingo lakes of the Rift Valley, Kenya offers a perfect blend of drama and serenity. Add luxury lodges, rich culture, and effortless connections from Nairobi, and it’s easy to see why Kenya remains Africa’s classic safari destination.

Tanzania

Tanzania is safari in its purest form — home to the Serengeti’s endless plains, the wildlife-rich Ngorongoro Crater, and the remote wilderness of the Selous. Here you can witness the world’s greatest migration, climb Mount Kilimanjaro, or unwind on Zanzibar’s palm-fringed beaches. It’s a land of scale, spectacle, and surprising tranquility.

South Africa

South Africa is a world within one country — where Big Five safaris, cosmopolitan cities, and dramatic coastlines all come together. Explore Kruger’s legendary wildlife, sip fine wines in the Cape Winelands, and follow the scenic Garden Route to the ocean. Ideal for first-time visitors and seasoned travelers alike, it’s Africa’s most diverse and accessible destination.

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe combines spectacular landscapes, warm-hearted people, and superb wildlife viewing. The country is home to Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, and to some of Africa’s best-kept secrets like Hwange and Mana Pools. Expert guides, intimate camps, and genuine wilderness make it a deeply rewarding safari destination.

Zambia

Zambia is where safari feels truly authentic. Walk through the wilds of South Luangwa, drift along the Zambezi River, or stand in awe at the mighty Victoria Falls. Known for its warm hospitality and pioneering walking safaris, Zambia is perfect for those seeking adventure off the beaten path — without sacrificing comfort.

Namibia

Namibia’s beauty lies in its extremes — towering red dunes, wild coastlines, and desert-adapted wildlife. In this land of silence and space, safaris blend adventure with solitude. Explore Etosha’s salt pans, track black rhino in Damaraland, or simply marvel at the otherworldly landscapes of Sossusvlei and the Skeleton Coast.

Congo

Congo-Brazzaville remains one of Africa’s last great frontiers — a pristine world of rainforest, rivers, and remarkable wildlife. Deep within Odzala-Kokoua National Park, you can track western lowland gorillas, walk through forest bais alive with elephant and sitatunga, and glide by kayak under cathedral-like canopies. Remote, raw, and richly rewarding, it’s a safari that feels like true exploration

Botswana

Botswana delivers some of Africa’s most exclusive and pristine safaris. The Okavango Delta shimmers with life, the Kalahari’s salt pans glow under star-filled skies, and small luxury camps promise unmatched intimacy. With strict conservation policies and private concessions, Botswana offers a safari that feels personal, wild, and deeply respectful of nature.

Rwanda

Rwanda, the “Land of a Thousand Hills,” is where mist-shrouded volcanoes rise above emerald forests. It’s one of the best places on earth to meet mountain gorillas face-to-face — a truly life-changing encounter. Combine your trek with lakeside relaxation or cultural discovery in Kigali for a journey that’s both soulful and inspiring.

Uganda

Uganda is a place of lush landscapes and untamed spirit — where rainforest meets savannah and adventure meets serenity. Trek mountain gorillas in Bwindi, spot tree-climbing lions in Queen Elizabeth National Park, and cruise along the Nile. Its variety and friendliness make Uganda a hidden gem among East African safaris.

Mozambique

Mozambique is the Indian Ocean’s secret — a coastline of turquoise waters, coral reefs, and white sands stretching for miles. After the thrill of the bush, unwind on a dhow safari, go diving among tropical fish, or enjoy barefoot luxury on remote island lodges. It’s the ultimate safari-and-sea pairing.

This is the third time RealSafaris arranged our Safari. The first time me and my husband went to Tanzania, the second time we went to Kenya with another couple and now we went on a multi generational safari to South Africa. Wow wow wow! Malaria free Madikwe and horseriding in the Waterberg and tipping it up seeing whales in Capetown staying at Coot Club. Thanks Real Safaris in arranging this for us

Zambia completely captured our hearts. We started in South Luangwa, where the guides somehow spotted every hidden animal — from leopards in trees to tiny chameleons on night drives. Our kids loved learning how to track footprints and even tried a bush breakfast by the river! Then we ended at Lower Zambezi, watching elephants cross the water right in front of our tent. It was the perfect mix of adventure, comfort, and family magic.
