african safari

African safaris have become increasingly popular in recent years as a mainstream of the global tourism industry.

First popularized in the 19th Century following the well publicized exploits of explorers such as Dr David Livingstone and Henry Morton Stanley and later immortalized on screen by motion pictures such as Trader Horn, Tarzan and later Out of Africa.

Today safaris have become refined experiences with luxury lodges and camps established throughout Southern and Eastern Africa. Kenya safaris, Tanzania safaris and South Africa safaris remain the most popular although other nations such as Malawi, Uganda, Botswana, Zambia and Namibia also enjoy a flourishing safari industry.
