For the love of Africa!

So, where to next?

We love blending some of Africa’s most iconic attractions with some of its lesser known and more surprising destinations, and the forthcoming April-June issue will be no exception. From the Masai Mara and Cape Town to northern Zambia, Sudan and the ancient civilisation of Great Zimbabwe, we will explore some of the great wildlife and cultural stories that make this the world’s most exciting continent.
