Concentrating on Conservation
Without conservation it goes without saying, the state of Africa’s wildlife would not be in the fairly stable condition it is today. Conservation is key to the survival of an ever-decreasing natural world where resources and wildlife are put under pressure on a daily basis.
As one of the four founding travel partners of African Parks Conservations, we at Natural World Safaris try and build conservation into every safari, every story, every project that we do. It is not easy, but it is key to the future of both the wildlife seen on an African safari and wildlife worldwide. Park fees, permits, grassroot conservation projects, all play a key part in protecting the wildlife of the African continent with money being driven back into the wildlife and local communities where it truly makes a difference.
Africa Safaris
An African safari is any wildlife lovers dream as to put it bluntly it is pretty unbeatable! The diversity that this continent offers is huge from north to south and east to west. The savannah plains of Kenya and Tanzania offer one of the biggest wildlife spectacles in the world, the wildebeest migration, with millions of grazers following the rains and with predators in hot pursuit. If the savannah plains don’t float your boat, then head to the lesser known west of Tanzania where you can track the elusive chimpanzees – made famous by Jane Goodall – through the tropical forests of Mahale and Gombe. If primates are your thing then you can’t forget about Uganda and Rwanda with the last strongholds of the endangered mountain gorilla – with only approximately 1,000 left in the world - an on-foot experience tracking these gentle giants is truly one not to be missed.
For those of you looking for a bit more of a laid-back African safari, then head south and to the sun soaked South Africa; big game in the private reserves dotted throughout the country combine with a wild coastline with whales spotted offshore, great food in Cape Town, or enjoy a local drink or two in the Winelands. Let’s not forget Botswana the jewel in the crown for any African safari with private concessions and access limited to only a high-heeled few. For those interested in their independence on an African safari then Namibia is your place with self-drives galore, desert adapted elephants and some of the biggest dunes in the world.
