Africa is synonymous with adventure, and for centuries has offered intrepid travelers new ways to test their abilities in the wild. These days there are countless opportunities for time-pressed visitors to enjoy a supercharged experience on a very well-run African vacation. Below it just a selection of some of our favorites. It’s time to leave behind the rat race for a little while and explore Africa at its best.
Kayaking on Lake Malawi: Take a five day sea kayak trip along part of beautiful Lake Malawi, Africa’s second longest lake at over 350 miles; carrying all of your equipment with you, set up camp on remote and sometimes uninhabited beaches each night, and enjoy food cooked over the fire under the stars.

Take a walk in the Matthews Ranges: this incredibly beautiful and remote part of northern Kenya is a wonderful place for a long distance walk.

Canoe the Zambezi: from Zambezi town in the north western corner of Zambia to Livingstone takes several days at a gentle pace as you glide serenely through this incredibly remote and little seen region on one of the great rivers of Africa.

Follow that Camel: the Laikipia region of Kenya is a superb location for a multi-day camel safari. The scenery is stunning, and the climate perfect for camping out. Guests have the option to walk or to ride camels, and the superbly comfortable camp is transported ahead by a separate team. The guides are outstanding and on the way you may see all sorts of wildlife, visit local villages, and revel in the knowledge that you have this incredible landscape to yourselves.
