Where would you like to travel this summer? Do you dream about beaches, the city of London, the United States or maybe an exotic place with foreign culture and strangely looking wildlife? The summer is already here, so you need to make up your mind, but it’s always great to explore new parts of the world. This time, enter the unknown by embarking on African safari adventure in the dark continent, and we promise you won’t regret it!
African safari adventure is not any more a distant dream, fueled by unique pictures you can see online or at the catalogs of travel agencies.
This summer one of the world’s largest airlines, Qatar Airways is offering travellers special summer offers which include not only discounted airfares, but also pre-paid hotel stays. The travel packages are available for flights from Dubai and Abu Dhabi, so it’s a great opportunity for you to discover the wonders of the world at very reasonable prices. The exotic world of Africa has always seemed to most of us distant, obscure and a bit dangerous, but now it gets closer with Qatar Airways. One of the Summer Offers on the official webpage allow us to visit Africa and take part of an authentic safari experience.
Do you know why they call Africa the Dark Continent? No, it’s not because of the complexion of its original inhabitants, nor the fact that it’s actually dark when seen from space. It’s quite a romantic name for an unknown and underexplored region of the world to the Europeans of the 19th century primarily. And it’s a land flushing with light and vivid life, a place of little Western influence where the flora and fauna have survived the deeds of man. That’s why a journey in the heart of Africa will be the richest experience you can imagine! And one that is definitely worth the money!
Visit QatarAirways.com and take a look at the summer holidays offers. The Safari Adventures Offers are valid through 31st October, so you can choose when to travel. The duration and the destination of your safari vacation are also up to you – from 3 to seven days, in five different countries.
One of the countries you can visit is Kenya which lies right on the equator and has three different climates. There are also three different offers for safari adventures in Kenya which include a stay in different hotels and camps, different itineraries, and of course, different prices. Home to the Swahili, the pastoralist communities, as well as the well-known to tourists Maasai culture, and to more than 40 ethnic groups, the country is extremely interesting because of the some of the oldest languages and traditions in the world that have been preserved to modern time.
Are you curious about evolution and the connection between apes and humans? Then you should book one of the two safari packages to Rwanda, to Volcanoes National Park in particular, where you can track the biggest primate, the gorilla. Take a closer look on the stepmother of Tarzan – this will be one of your most unforgettable lifetime experiences. Another trip will take you to the tropical forests of Uganda where you can spend four days observing and learning facts about gorillas.
There are also two offers in South Africa. The one featuring four nights will take you to the Kruger National Park where you can see 517 species of birds and 147 species of mammals, including the big five game – lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros. The 7-night safari adventure will take you across half the country and will let you learn more about the local history and culture.
Another country featured in the Safari Adventures Offers is one of the most visited places in the continent, Tanzania. It is popular with its amazing national reserves and unique animal species such as the Grey-faced Sengi (a species of elephant shrew), and the threatened Lesser Flamingo. The one week safari will include the Lake Manyara National Park, Serengeti National Park, and Tarangire National Park. You will descent 2,000 feet to the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera, Ngorongoro Crater and drive through the Masai Steppe and authentic African villages – what more could you possibly want from a safari?
