Most people who travel to the fascinating region of Africa have one thing on their mind – safari, and in particular the ‘Big Five’. And whilst the buffalo, elephant, lion, leopard and rhino deliver out of this world viewing, there’s so much more to this stunning continent. South Africa boasts over 1,700 miles of coastline and some of the world’s most fascinating scenery including Table Mountain and beautiful wine regions. Kenya may be most famous for its impressive wildlife prowling the National Parks, but the coastal resort of Mombasa is well worth considering if you’re visiting this magical country.
